Multibranch Entrainment and Slow Evolution among Branches in Coupled Oscillators

Abstract: In globally coupled oscillators, it is believed that strong higher harmonics of coupling functions are essential for multibranch entrainment (MBE), in which there exist many stable states, whose number scales as ∼ O(exp N ) (where N is the system size). The existence of MBE implies the non-ergodicity of the system. Then, because this apparent breaking of ergodicity is caused by microscopic energy barriers, this seems to be in conflict with a basic principle of statistical physics.In this paper, using macroscop… Show more

“…Detailed theoretical understanding of stability of the asynchronous states constructed via the self-consistency approach in this paper, is still missing. Finally, noise regularizes the multiplicity of the micro-states and turns neutral stabil-ity into an asymptotic one [40,20]; these effects will be discussed in details elsewhere [22].…”

“…It is difficult to specify such a transfer function concretely, but it is possible to introduce one formally. As a premise that this transfer function holds, we assume that the microscopic memory effect can be neglected in the steady state [64].…”

“…For instance, the choice H ij (θ) = sin(θ) yields the classical Kuramoto model [10], while the presence of additional modes can give rise to multibranch entrainment, a.k.a. cluster synchronization [30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37]. Here, we focus our attention on systems with coupling frustration, as indicated by one or more non-zero values of the quantity…”
