Generalized synchronization in a drive-response Chua circuits is investigated. A cascade of transitions to GS is observed with increasing the interaction strength. The mechanism on the transitions to GS is given based on the asymptotic behaviors of response dynamics. Copyright EDP...

We numerically investigate how to enhance synchronizability of coupled identical oscillators in complex networks with research focus on the roles of the high level of clustering for a given heterogeneity in the degree distribution. By using the edge-exchange method with the fixed degree...

In this paper, firstly, we study analytically the topological features of a family of hierarchical lattices (HLs) from the view point of complex networks. We derive some basic properties of HLs controlled by a parameter q: scale-free degree distribution with exponent γ=2+ln 2/(ln q), null...

In weighted networks, redistribution of link weights can effectively change the properties of networks, even though the corresponding binary topology remains unchanged. In this paper, the effects of weight randomization on synchronization of coupled chaotic maps is investigated on regular...

In this paper, inspired by the idea that different nodes should play different roles in network synchronization, we bring forward a coupling method where the coupling strength of each node depends on its neighbors' degrees. Compared with the uniform coupled method and the recently proposed...

We discuss two models of opinion dynamics. We first present a brief review of the Hegselmann and Krause (HK) compromise model in two dimensions, showing that it is possible to simulate the dynamics in the limit of an infinite number of agents by solving numerically a rate equation for a...

We analyze the interplay of synchronization and structure evolution in an evolving network of phase oscillators. An initially random network is adaptively rewired according to the dynamical coherence of the oscillators, in order to enhance their mutual synchronization. We show that the evolving...

The collective behaviour of a square-lattice Hodgkin-Huxley neural network model with white noise is investigated by numerical methods. It is found that for an intermediate value of noise the Hodgkin-Huxley neurons in the square lattice exhibit an ordered circular structure. However, as the...
