The structure of many real-world systems is best captured by networks consisting of several interaction layers. Understanding how a multi-layered structure of connections affects the synchronization properties of dynamical systems evolving on top of it is a highly relevant endeavour in mathematics and physics, and has potential applications to several societally relevant topics, such as power grids engineering and neural dynamics. We propose a general framework to assess stability of the synchronized state in networks with multiple interaction layers, deriving a necessary condition that generalizes the Master Stability Function approach. We validate our method applying it to a network of Rossler oscillators with a double layer of interactions, and show that highly rich phenomenology emerges. This includes cases where the stability of synchronization can be induced even if both layers would have individually induced unstable synchrony, an effect genuinely due to the true multi-layer structure of the interactions amongst the units in the network.
Transients are fundamental to ecological systems with significant implications to management, conservation, and biological control. We uncover a type of transient synchronization behavior in spatial ecological networks whose local dynamics are of the
We detail a novel class of implicit neural models. Leveraging time-parallel methods for differential equations, Multiple Shooting Layers (MSLs) seek solutions of initial value problems via parallelizable root-finding algorithms. MSLs broadly serve as
Over the past two decades, complex network theory provided the ideal framework for investigating the intimate relationships between the topological properties characterizing the wiring of connections among a systems unitary components and its emergen
The characterization of various properties of real-world systems requires the knowledge of the underlying network of connections among the systems components. Unfortunately, in many situations the complete topology of this network is empirically inac
A scenario has recently been reported in which in order to stabilize complete synchronization of an oscillator network---a symmetric state---the symmetry of the system itself has to be broken by making the oscillators nonidentical. But how often does
