Permutation symmetries and phase wave synchronization on networks of heterogeneous chemical oscillators — •Jan Frederik Totz1, Harald Engel1, and Kenneth Showalter2 — 1Technische Universität Berlin, Berlin, Deutschland — 2West Virginia University, Morgantown, USA
Synchronization phenomena are observed in a wide variety of systems ranging from synchronizing fireflies through firing neurons to electrical power grids [1,2]. Recently it has been demonstrated that permutation symmetries of the underlying oscillator networks are of fundamental importance for zero-lag synchronization patterns [3]. In this contribution, we address the question: What role do network symmetries play, when the frequency detuning of the individual oscillators is too large to allow for zero-lag synchronization? Experiments and simulations on networks of discrete chemical relaxation oscillators [4] reveal transitions from incoherence through partial synchronization to phase waves following symmetry clusters as a function of coupling strength.
