Hub synchronization in scale-free networks

Abstract: Heterogeneity in the degree distribution is known to suppress global synchronization in complex networks of symmetrically coupled oscillators. Scale-free networks display a great deal of heterogeneity, containing a few nodes, termed hubs, that are highly connected, while most nodes receive only a few connections. Here, we show that a group of synchronized nodes may appear in scale-free networks: hubs undergo a transition to synchronization while the other nodes remain unsynchronized. This general phenomenon ca… Show more

“…Since the thermal rectifier based on Morse potential has been proposed [4], many thermal rectifiers have been revealved in various structures. For example, the thermal diode by coupling two nonlinear lattices [1,5], the asymmetric nanotubes and graphene [2,[6][7][8], anharmonic graded mass crystals [9,10] and a spin-boson nanojunction model [11]. Inspired by these theoretical studies, Chang and co-workers have produced a microscopic solid-state thermal rectifier based on carbon nanotubes [12].…”

“…Therefore, nodes with a larger degree k > k (hubs) are more crucial than nodes with a smaller degree k < k (compare with Ref. [20]). If the frequencies of these hubs are much broader spread around the average frequency, it is more difficult for the whole network to exhibit a synchronized oscillation.…”
