Active synchronization and ordering of coupled oscillators | | Tirthankar Banerjee

2 May 2016 | | Abstract: | How to control synchronization and order in a collection of interacting
oscillators remains a challenging question. We address this by constructing a
hydrodynamic theory for {em active} phase fluctuations in a collection of
nearly phase-coherent oscillators, dynamically coupled to a diffusive species,
in two dimensions.
We show that the interplay between the active effects and the diffusion
coefficient of the diffusing species leads to a variety of phenomena, ranging
from synchronization with long range, nearly long range and quasi long range
orders to instabilities and desynchronization with short range order of the
oscillator phases. Our results highlight sensitive dependences of
synchronization on the active effects. These should be testable in oscillating
chemical reactions in the presence of different reaction inhibitors/
facilitators, in oriented cytoskeletal extracts with motors, or chemotaxing,
live, chiral, oriented, microbial suspensions. | | Source: | arXiv, 1605.0489 | | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites | |
