Abstract:
Synchronization of many coupled oscillators is a generic issue in a wide variety of natural situations. We consider a discrete time map model for the study of such problems. Issues addressed include the effects of noise, oscillation frequency diversity, and network topology, particularly community structure.

Linear time-invariant Systems
The input-output behavior of an LTI system can be fully defined by its response to an impulsive excitation at its input. Once this impulse response is known, the system's reaction to any other input can be calculated...
BIBO stability of continuous and discrete -time systems
To determine the BIBO stability, the convolution integral is utilized when a bounded continuous-time input is applied to a Linear Time-Invariant (LTI) system.
