Abstract:
|
We study two-layer networks of identical phase oscillators. Each individual layer is
a ring network for which a non-local intra-layer coupling leads to the formation of a
chimera state. The number of oscillators and their natural frequencies is in general
different across the layers. We couple the phases of individual oscillators in one layer
to the phase of the mean field of the other layer. This coupling from the mean field to
individual oscillators is done in both directions. For a sufficient strength of this interlayer
coupling, the phases of the mean fields lock across the two layers. In contrast,
both layers continue to exhibit chimera states with no locking between the phases
of individual oscillators across layers, and the two mean field amplitudes remain
uncorrelated. Hence, the networks’ mean fields show phase synchronization which
is analogous to the one between low-dimensional chaotic oscillators. The required
coupling strength to achieve this mean field phase synchronization increases with the
mismatches in the network sizes and the oscillators’ natural frequencies. |
