Generalized correlated states in a ring of coupled nonlinear oscillators with a local injection

Abstract:
In this paper, we study the spatiotemporal dynamics of a ring of diffusely coupled nonlinear oscillators. Floquet theory is used to investigate the various dynamical states of the ring, as well as the Hopf bifurcations between them. A local injection scheme is applied to synchronize the ring with an external master oscillator. The shift-invariance symmetry is thereby broken, leading to the emergence of generalized correlated states. The transition boundaries from these correlated states to spatiotemporal chaos and complete synchronization are also derived. Numerical simulations are performed to support the analytic approach.
