Abstract:
We show that for the Kuramoto model (with identical phase oscillators equally coupled), its global statistics and size of the basins of attraction can be estimated through the eigenvalues of all stable (frequency) synchronized states. This result is somehow unexpected since, by doing that, one could just use a local analysis to obtain the global dynamic properties. But recent works based on Koopman and Perron-Frobenius operators demonstrate that the global features of a nonlinear dynamical system, with some specific conditions, are somehow encoded in the local eigenvalues of its equilibrium states. Recognized numerical simulations in the literature reinforce our analytical results.

Stability of Equilibrium Configuration
A stable equilibrium occurs when a system tends to return to its original position when given a small displacement, and the potential energy is at its minimum. An example of a stable equilibrium is when a cantilever beam is fixed at one end and a weight is attached to the other end. If the weight...
Routh-Hurwitz Criterion II
The first scenario occurs when a singular zero appears in the first column of the Routh table. This situation creates a division by zero issues. To resolve this, a small positive or negative number, denoted as epsilon (∈), is substituted for the zero. The stability analysis proceeds by assuming a sign for ∈. If ∈ is positive, any sign change in the first...
