Adaptation plays a pivotal role in the evolution of natural and artificial complex systems, and in the determination of their functionality. Here, we investigate the impact of adaptive inter-layer processes on intra-layer synchronization in multiplex networks. The considered adaptation mechanism is governed by a Hebbian learning rule, i.e., the link weight between a pair of interconnected nodes is enhanced if the two nodes are in phase. Such adaptive coupling induces an irreversible first-order transition route to synchronization accompanied with a hysteresis. We provide rigorous analytic predictions of the critical coupling strengths for the onset of synchronization and de-synchronization, and verify all our theoretical predictions by means of extensive numerical simulations.

We show that an introduction of a phase parameter ($alpha$), with $0 le alpha le pi/2$, in the interlayer coupling terms of multiplex networks of Kuramoto oscillators can induce explosive synchronization (ES) in the multiplexed layers. Along with the {alpha} values, the hysteresis width is determined by the interlayer coupling strength and the frequency mismatch between the mirror (inter-connected) nodes. A mean-field analysis is performed to support the numerical results. Similar to the earlier works, we find that the suppression of synchronization is accountable for the origin of ES. The robustness of ES against changes in the network topology and frequency distribution is tested. Finally, taking a suggestion from the synchronized state of the multiplex networks, we extend the results to the classical concept of the single-layer networks in which some specific links are assigned a phase-shifted coupling. Different methods have been introduced in the past years to incite ES in coupled oscillators; our results indicate that a phase-shifted coupling can also be one such method to achieve ES.
Biological synaptic plasticity exhibits nonlinearities that are not accounted for by classic Hebbian learning rules. Here, we introduce a simple family of generalized, nonlinear Hebbian learning rules. We study the computations implemented by their dynamics in the simple setting of a neuron receiving feedforward inputs. We show that these nonlinear Hebbian rules allow a neuron to learn tensor decompositions of its higher-order input correlations. The particular input correlation decomposed, and the form of the decomposition, depend on the location of nonlinearities in the plasticity rule. For simple, biologically motivated parameters, the neuron learns tensor eigenvectors of higher-order input correlations. We prove that each tensor eigenvector is an attractor and determine their basins of attraction. We calculate the volume of those basins, showing that the dominant eigenvector has the largest basin of attraction. We then study arbitrary learning rules, and find that any learning rule that admits a finite Taylor expansion into the neural input and output also has stable equilibria at tensor eigenvectors of its higher-order input correlations. Nonlinearities in synaptic plasticity thus allow a neuron to encode higher-order input correlations in a simple fashion.
We present a study on the selection of a variety of activity patterns among neurons that are connected in multiplex framework, with neurons on two layers with different functional couplings. With Hindmarsh-Rose model for the dynamics of single neurons, we analyze the possible patterns of dynamics in each layer separately, and report emergent patterns of activity like anti-phase oscillations in multi-clusters with phase regularities and enhanced amplitude and frequency with mixed mode oscillations when the connections are inhibitory. When they are multiplexed with neurons of one layer coupled with excitatory synaptic coupling and neurons of the other layer coupled with inhibitory synaptic coupling, we observe transfer or selection of interesting patterns of collective behaviour between the layers, inducing anti-phase oscillations and multi-cluster oscillations. While the revival of oscillations occurs in the layer with excitatory coupling, the transition from anti-phase to in-phase and vice versa is observed in the other layer with inhibitory synaptic coupling. We also discuss how the selection of these patterns can be controlled by tuning the intra-layer or inter-layer coupling strengths or increasing the range of non-local coupling. With one layer having electrical coupling while the other synaptic coupling of excitatory(inhibitory)type, we find in-phase(anti-phase) synchronized patterns of activity among neurons in both layers.
We study the dynamics of two neuronal populations weakly and mutually coupled in a multiplexed ring configuration. We simulate the neuronal activity with the stochastic FitzHugh-Nagumo (FHN) model. The two neuronal populations perceive different levels of noise: one population exhibits spiking activity induced by supra-threshold noise (layer 1), while the other population is silent in the absence of inter-layer coupling because its own level of noise is sub-threshold (layer 2). We find that, for appropriate levels of noise in layer 1, weak inter-layer coupling can induce coherence resonance (CR), anti-coherence resonance (ACR) and inverse stochastic resonance (ISR) in layer 2. We also find that a small number of randomly distributed inter-layer links are sufficient to induce these phenomena in layer 2. Our results hold for small and large neuronal populations.
It is known that intra-layer adaptive coupling among connected oscillators instigates explosive synchronization (ES) in multilayer networks. Taking an altogether different cue in the present work, we consider inter-layer adaptive coupling in a multiplex network of phase oscillators and show that the scheme gives rise to ES with an associated hysteresis irrespective of the network architecture of individual layers. The hysteresis is shaped by the inter-layer coupling strength and the frequency mismatch between the mirror nodes. We provide rigorous mean-field analytical treatment for the measure of global coherence and manifest they are in a good match with respective numerical assessments. Moreover, the analytical predictions provide a complete insight into how adaptive multiplexing suppresses the formation of a giant cluster, eventually giving birth to ES. The study will help in spotlighting the role of multiplexing in the emergence of ES in real-world systems represented by multilayer architecture. Particularly, it is relevant to those systems which have limitations towards change in intra-layer coupling strength.
