Many biological and chemical systems could be modeled by a population of oscillators coupled indirectly via a dynamical environment. Essentially, the environment by which the individual elements communicate is heterogeneous. Nevertheless, most of previous works considered the homogeneous case only. Here, we investigated the dynamical behaviors in a population of spatially distributed chaotic oscillators immersed in a heterogeneous environment. Various dynamical synchronization states such as oscillation death, phase synchronization, and complete synchronized oscillation as well as their transitions were found. More importantly, we uncovered a non-traditional quorum sensing transition: increasing the density would first lead to collective oscillation from oscillation quench, but further increasing the population density would lead to degeneration from complete synchronization to phase synchronization or even from phase synchronization to desynchronization. The underlying mechanism of this finding was attributed to the dual roles played by the population density. Further more, by treating the indirectly coupled systems effectively to the system with directly local coupling, we applied the master stability function approach to predict the occurrence of the complete synchronized oscillation, which were in agreement with the direct numerical simulations of the full system. The possible candidates of the experimental realization on our model was also discussed.

Many biological and chemical systems exhibit collective behavior in response to the change in their population density. These elements or cells communicate with each other via dynamical agents or signaling molecules. In this work, we explore the dyna mics of nonlinear oscillators, specifically Stuart-Landau oscillators and Rayleigh oscillators, interacting globally through dynamical agents in the surrounding environment modeled as a quorum sensing interaction. The system exhibits the typical continuous second-order transition from oscillatory state to death state, when the oscillation amplitude is small. However, interestingly, when the amplitude of oscillations is large we find that the system shows an abrupt transition from oscillatory to death state, a transition termed explosive death. So the quorum-sensing form of interaction can induce the usual second-order transition, as well as sudden first-order transitions. Further in case of the explosive death transitions, the oscillatory state and the death state coexist over a range of coupling strengths near the transition point. This emergent regime of hysteresis widens with increasing strength of the mean-field feedback, and is relevant to hysteresis that is widely observed in biological, chemical and physical processes.
A new type of noise-induced synchronous behavior is described. This phenomenon, called incomplete noise-induced synchronization, arises for one-dimensional Ginzburg-Landau equations driven by common noise. The mechanisms resulting in the incomplete n oise-induced synchronization in the spatially extended systems are revealed analytically. The different model noise are considered. A very good agreement between the theoretical results and the numerically calculated data is shown.

The behaviors of coupled chaotic oscillators before complete synchronization were investigated. We report three phenomena: (1) The emergence of long-time residence of trajectories besides one of the saddle foci; (2) The tendency that orbits of the tw o oscillators get close becomes faster with increasing the coupling strength; (3) The diffusion of two oscillators phase difference is first enhanced and then suppressed. There are exact correspondences among these phenomena. The mechanism of these correspondences is explored. These phenomena uncover the route to synchronization of coupled chaotic oscillators.

We consider networks formed from two populations of identical oscillators, with uniform strength all-to-all coupling within populations, and also between populations, with a different strength. Such systems are known to support chimera states in whic h oscillators within one population are perfectly synchronised while in the other the oscillators are incoherent, and have a different mean frequency from those in the synchronous population. Assuming that the oscillators in the incoherent population always lie on a closed smooth curve $mathcal{C}$, we derive and analyse the dynamics of the shape of $mathcal{C}$ and the probability density on $mathcal{C}$, for four different types of oscillators. We put some previously derived results on a rigorous footing, and analyse two new systems.
Two replicas of spatially extended chaotic systems synchronize to a common spatio-temporal chaotic state when coupled above a critical strength. As a prototype of each single spatio-temporal chaotic system a lattice of maps interacting via power-law coupling is considered. The synchronization transition is studied as a non-equilibrium phase transition, and its critical properties are analyzed at varying the spatial interaction range as well as the nonlinearity of the dynamical units composing each system. In particular, continuous and discontinuous local maps are considered. In both cases the transitions are of the second order with critical indexes varying with the exponent characterizing the interaction range. For discontinuous maps it is numerically shown that the transition belongs to the {it anomalous directed percolation} (ADP) family of universality classes, previously identified for L{e}vy-flight spreading of epidemic processes. For continuous maps, the critical exponents are different from those characterizing ADP, but apart from the nearest-neighbor case, the identification of the corresponding universality classes remains an open problem. Finally, to test the influence of deterministic correlations for the studied synchronization transitions, the chaotic dynamical evolutions are substituted by suitable stochastic models. In this framework and for the discontinuous case, it is possible to derive an effective Langevin description that corresponds to that proposed for ADP.
