We investigate the minimal Hilbert-space dimension for a system to be synchronized. We first show that qubits cannot be synchronized due to the lack of a limit cycle. Moving to larger spin values, we demonstrate that a single spin 1 can be phase-locked to a weak external signal of similar frequency and exhibits all the standard features of the theory of synchronization. Our findings rely on the Husimi Q representation based on spin coherent states which we propose as a tool to obtain a phase portrait.

A system consisting of two qubits and a resonator is considered in the presence of different sources of noise, bringing to light the possibility for making the two qubits evolve in a synchronized way. A direct qubit-qubit interaction turns out to be a crucial ingredient as well as dissipation processes involving the resonator. The detrimental role of local dephasing of the qubits is also taken into account.

A finite-time singularity accompanied by log-periodic oscillations shaped the war dynamics and development of the International System during the period 1495 - 1945. The identification of this singularity provides us with a perspective to penetrate a nd decode the dynamics of the International System. Various regularities in the dynamics of the International System can be identified. These regularities are remarkably consistent, and can be attributed to the connectivity and the growth of connectivity of the International System.
Let $t in mathbb{N}$, $eta >0$. Suppose that $x$ is a sufficiently large real number and $q$ is a natural number with $q leq x^{5/12-eta}$, $q$ not a multiple of the conductor of the exceptional character $chi^*$ (if it exists). Suppose further that, [ max {p : p | q } < exp (frac{log x}{C log log x}) ; ; {and} ; ; prod_{p | q} p < x^{delta}, ] where $C$ and $delta$ are suitable positive constants depending on $t$ and $eta$. Let $a in mathbb{Z}$, $(a,q)=1$ and [ mathcal{A} = {n in (x/2, x]: n equiv a pmod{q} } . ] We prove that there are primes $p_1 < p_2 < ... < p_t$ in $mathcal{A}$ with [ p_t - p_1 ll qt exp (frac{40 t}{9-20 theta}) . ] Here $theta = (log q) / log x$.
Self-organized bistability (SOB) is the counterpart of self-organized criticality (SOC), for systems tuning themselves to the edge of bistability of a discontinuous phase transition, rather than to the critical point of a continuous one. The equation s defining the mathematical theory of SOB turn out to bear strong resemblance to a (Landau-Ginzburg) theory recently proposed to analyze the dynamics of the cerebral cortex. This theory describes the neuronal activity of coupled mesoscopic patches of cortex, homeostatically regulated by short-term synaptic plasticity. The theory for cortex dynamics entails, however, some significant differences with respect to SOB, including the lack of a (bulk) conservation law, the absence of a perfect separation of timescales and, the fact that in the former, but not in the second, there is a parameter that controls the overall system state (in blatant contrast with the very idea of self-organization). Here, we scrutinize --by employing a combination of analytical and computational tools-- the analogies and differences between both theories and explore whether in some limit SOB can play an important role to explain the emergence of scale-invariant neuronal avalanches observed empirically in the cortex. We conclude that, actually, in the limit of infinitely slow synaptic-dynamics, the two theories become identical, but the timescales required for the self-organization mechanism to be effective do not seem to be biologically plausible. We discuss the key differences between self-organization mechanisms with/without conservation and with/without infinitely separated timescales. In particular, we introduce the concept of self-organized collective oscillations and scrutinize the implications of our findings in neuroscience, shedding new light into the problems of scale invariance and oscillations in cortical dynamics.
