In the present article, we demonstrate the emergence and existence of the spiral wave chimera-like transient pattern in coupled ecological systems, composed of prey-predator patches, where the patches are connected in a three-dimensional medium through local diffusion. We explore the transition scenarios among the several collective dynamical behaviors together with transient spiral wave chimera-like states and investigate the long time behavior of these states. The transition from the transient spiral chimera-like pattern to the long time synchronized or desynchronized pattern appears through the deformation of the incoherent region of the spiral core. We discuss the transient dynamics under the influence of the species diffusion at different time instants. By calculating the instantaneous strength of incoherence of the populations, we estimate the duration of the transient dynamics characterized by the persistence of the chimera-like spatial coexistence of coherent and incoherent patterns over the spatial domain. We generalize our observations on the transient dynamics in three-dimensional grid of diffusive ecological systems by considering two different prey-predator systems.

Formation of diverse patterns in spatially extended reaction-diffusion systems is an important aspect of study which is pertinent to many chemical and biological processes. Of special interest is the peculiar phenomenon of chimera state having spatial coexistence of coherent and incoherent dynamics in a system of identically interacting individuals. In the present article, we report the emergence of various collective dynamical patterns while considering a system of prey-predator dynamics in presence of a two-dimensional diffusive environment. Particularly, we explore the observance of four distinct categories of spatial arrangements among the species, namely spiral wave, spiral chimera, completely synchronized oscillations, and oscillation death states in a broad region of the diffusion-driven parameter space. Emergence of amplitude mediated spiral chimera states displaying drifted amplitudes and phases in the incoherent subpopulation is detected for parameter values beyond both Turing and Hopf bifurcations. Transition scenarios among all these distinguishable patterns are numerically demonstrated for a wide range of the diffusion coefficients which reveal that the chimera states arise during the transition from oscillatory to steady state dynamics. Furthermore, we characterize the occurrence of each of the recognizable patterns by estimating the strength of incoherent subpopulations in the two-dimensional space.
Chimera states arising in the classic Kuramoto system of two-dimensional phase coupled oscillators are transient but they are long transients in the sense that the average transient lifetime grows exponentially with the system size. For reasonably large systems, e.g., those consisting of a few hundreds oscillators, it is infeasible to numerically calculate or experimentally measure the average lifetime, so the chimera states are practically permanent. We find that small perturbations in the third dimension, which make system slightly three-dimensional, will reduce dramatically the transient lifetime. In particular, under such a perturbation, the practically infinite average transient lifetime will become extremely short, because it scales with the magnitude of the perturbation only logarithmically. Physically, this means that a reduction in the perturbation strength over many orders of magnitude, insofar as it is not zero, would result in only an incremental increase in the lifetime. The uncovered type of fragility of chimera states raises concerns about their observability in physical systems.
We report the emergence of stable amplitude chimeras and chimera death in a two-layer network where one layer has an ensemble of identical nonlinear oscillators interacting directly through local coupling and indirectly through dynamic agents that form the second layer. The nonlocality in the interaction among the dynamical agents in the second layer induces different types of chimera related dynamical states in the first layer. The amplitude chimeras developed in them are found to be extremely stable, while chimera death states are prevalent for increased coupling strengths. The results presented are for a system of coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators and can in general represent systems with short-range interactions coupled to another set of systems with long range interactions. In this case, by tuning the range of interactions among the oscillators or the coupling strength between the two types of systems, we can control the nature of chimera states and the system can be restored to homogeneous steady states. The dynamic agents interacting nonlocally with long-range interactions can be considered as a dynamic environment or medium interacting with the system. We indicate how the second layer can act as a reinforcement mechanism on the first layer under various possible interactions for desirable effects.
We analyst in detail a new approach to the monitoring and forecasting of the onset of transitions in high dimensional complex systems (see Phys. Rev. Lett . vol. 113, 264102 (2014)) by application to the Tangled Nature Model of evolutionary ecology and high dimensional replicator systems with a stochastic element. A high dimensional stability matrix is derived for the mean field approximation to the stochastic dynamics. This allows us to determine the stability spectrum about the observed quasi-stable configurations. From overlap of the instantaneous configuration vector of the full stochastic system with the eigenvectors of the unstable directions of the deterministic mean field approximation we are able to construct a good early-warning indicator of the transitions occurring intermittently. Inspired by these findings we are able to suggest an alternative simplified applicable forecasting procedure which only makes use of observable data streams.
We study the dynamics of mobile, locally coupled identical oscillators in the presence of coupling delays. We find different kinds of chimera states, in which coherent in-phase and anti-phase domains coexist with incoherent domains. These chimera states are dynamic and can persist for long times for intermediate mobility values. We discuss the mechanisms leading to the formation of these chimera states in different mobility regimes. This finding could be relevant for natural and technological systems composed of mobile communicating agents.
