Abstract:
We characterize some intriguing aspects of the entrainment behavior of coupled oscillators by means of a perturbation analysis of the partially synchronized solution of the classical Kuramoto-Sakaguchi model. The analysis reveals that partial entrainment may disappear with increasing coupling strength. It also predicts the occurrence of resonances: partial entrainment is induced in oscillators with natural frequencies in specific intervals not corresponding to high oscillator densities. The results are illustrated by simulations.
