Self-organized cluster formation in neural networks — •Rico Berner^1,2, Eckehard Schöll¹, and Serhiy Yanchuk² — ¹Institut für Theoretische Physik, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany — ²Institut für Mathematik, Technische Universität Berlin, Germany

We investigate collective behaviour in a network of adaptively coupled phase oscillators, where the coupling topology depends on the dynamics of oscillators. We show that such a system gives rise to numerous dynamics, including hierarchical multi-clusters and chimera states. Our numerical and analytical results are compared and interpreted with respect to pattern formation due to learning processes and the multi-layer structure of the human brain.
