TLDR
In this paper, the authors study the mechanisms that underlie synchronization processes in large systems of coupled chemical oscillators and derive a nonlinear integro-differential equation that describes how the distribution of the oscillators' phases evolves in time.Abstract:
We study the mechanisms that underlie synchronization processes in large systems of coupled chemical oscillators. By synchronization, we mean the evolution from an initial state where the phases of the oscillators are distributed randomly, to a final state where all the oscillators are in phase. In the continuum limit, where there are many oscillators per unit volume, we derive a nonlinear integro-differential equation that describes how the distribution of the oscillators’ phases evolves in time. In general, this problem is very formidable. But we discover some important special cases for which there are exact solutions describing synchronization processes.read more

Jump bifurcation and hysteresis in an infinite-dimensional dynamical system of coupled spins
TL;DR: In this article, an infinite-dimensional dynamical system that models a collection of coupled spins in a random magnetic field is studied and a state of the system is given by a self-map of the unit circle.

Driven response of time delay coupled limit cycle oscillators
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study the periodic forced response of a system of two limit cycle oscillators that interact with each other via a time delayed coupling and show that synchronization can occur with infinitesimal forcing amplitudes even at off-resonant driving.

Entrainment Ranges for Chains of Forced Neural and Phase Oscillators
TL;DR: Biological experiments and the robustness of non-monotonic entrainment ranges as a function of the forcing position across different classes of CPG models with nonuniform asymmetric coupling suggest that a specific property of the intersegmental coupling of the CPG is key to entrainments.

Synchronization in two interacting oscillatory systems.

TL;DR: Nonlinear phenomena arising from the interaction of two oscillating systems of chemical reactions are studied experimentally, and mathematical modelling of the above phenomena failed, probably due to insufficient knowledge of a kinetic model.

Coupled Chemical Oscillators
TL;DR: In this article, the interaction between a pair of coupled chemical oscillators was analyzed using singular perturbation techniques, and an equation that governs the time evolution of the phase shift was derived, which is a measure of how much the oscillators are out of phase.
