Complex chemical reaction networks, which underlie many industrial and biological processes, often exhibit non-monotonic changes in chemical species concentrations, typically described using nonlinear models. Such non-monotonic dynamics are in principle possible even in linear models if the matrices defining the models are non-normal, as characterized by a necessarily non-orthogonal set of eigenvectors. However, the extent to which non-normality is responsible for non-monotonic behavior remains an open question. Here, using a master equation to model the reaction dynamics, we derive a general condition for observing non-monotonic dynamics of individual species, establishing that non-normality promotes non-monotonicity but is not a requirement for it. In contrast, we show that non-normality is a requirement for non-monotonic dynamics to be observed in the Renyi entropy. Using hydrogen combustion as an example application, we demonstrate that non-monotonic dynamics under experimental conditions are supported by a linear chain of connected components, in contrast with the dominance of a single giant component observed in typical random reaction networks. The exact linearity of the master equation enables development of rigorous theory and simulations for dynamical networks of unprecedented size (approaching $10^5$ dynamical variables, even for a network of only 20 reactions and involving less than 100 atoms). Our conclusions are expected to hold for other combustion processes, and the general theory we develop is applicable to all chemical reaction networks, including biological ones.

Population bursts in a large ensemble of coupled elements result from the interplay between the local excitable properties of the nodes and the global network topology. Here collective excitability and self-sustained bursting oscillations are shown t o spontaneously emerge in adaptive networks of globally coupled non-excitable units. The ingredients to observe collective excitability are the coexistence of states with different degree of synchronizaton joined to a global feedback acting, on a slow timescale, against the synchronization (desynchronization) of the oscillators. These regimes are illustrated for two paradigmatic classes of coupled rotators: namely, the Kuramoto model with and without inertia. For the bimodal Kuramoto model we analytically show that the macroscopic evolution originates from the existence of a critical manifold organizing the fast collective dynamics on a slow timescale. Our results provide evidence that adaptation can induce excitability by maintaining a network permanently out-of-equilibrium.
Synchronization is an important behavior that characterizes many natural and human made systems composed by several interacting units. It can be found in a broad spectrum of applications, ranging from neuroscience to power-grids, to mention a few. Su ch systems synchronize because of the complex set of coupling they exhibit, the latter being modeled by complex networks. The dynamical behavior of the system and the topology of the underlying network are strongly intertwined, raising the question of the optimal architecture that makes synchronization robust. The Master Stability Function (MSF) has been proposed and extensively studied as a generic framework to tackle synchronization problems. Using this method, it has been shown that for a class of models, synchronization in strongly directed networks is robust to external perturbations. In this paper, our approach is to transform the non-autonomous system of coupled oscillators into an autonomous one, showing that previous results are model-independent. Recent findings indicate that many real-world networks are strongly directed, being potential candidates for optimal synchronization. Inspired by the fact that highly directed networks are also strongly non-normal, in this work, we address the matter of non-normality by pointing out that standard techniques, such as the MSF, may fail in predicting the stability of synchronized behavior. These results lead to a trade-off between non-normality and directedness that should be properly considered when designing an optimal network, enhancing the robustness of synchronization.
A condensation transition was predicted for growing technological networks evolving by preferential attachment and competing quality of their nodes, as described by the fitness model. When this condensation occurs a node acquires a finite fraction of all the links of the network. Earlier studies based on steady state degree distribution and on the mapping to Bose-Einstein condensation, were able to identify the critical point. Here we characterize the dynamics of condensation and we present evidence that below the condensation temperature there is a slow down of the dynamics and that a single node (not necessarily the best node in the network) emerges as the winner for very long times. The characteristic time t* at which this phenomenon occurs diverges both at the critical point and at $T -> 0$ when new links are attached deterministically to the highest quality node of the network.
The dynamics of chaotic Hamiltonian systems such as the kicked rotor continues to guide our understanding of transport and localization processes. The localized states of the quantum kicked rotor decay due to decoherence effects if subjected to stati onary noise. The associated quantum diffusion increases monotonically as a function of a parameter characterising the noise distribution. In this work, for the Levy kicked atom-optics rotor, it is experimentally shown that by tuning a parameter characterizing the Levy distribution, quantum diffusion displays non-monotonic behaviour. The parameters for optimal diffusion rates are analytically obtained and they reveal a good agreement with the cold atom experiments and numerics. The non-monotonicity is shown to be a quantum effect that vanishes in the classical limit.
Athermal systems across a large range of length scales, ranging from foams and granular bead packings to crumpled metallic sheets, exhibit slow stress relaxation when compressed. Experimentally they show a non-monotonic stress response when decompres sed somewhat after an initial compression, i.e. under a two-step, Kovacs-like protocol. It turns out that from this response one can tell the age of the system, suggesting an interpretation as a memory effect. In this work we use a model of an athermal jammed solid, specifically a binary mixture of soft harmonic spheres, to explore this phenomenon through in-silico experiments. Using extensive simulations under conditions analogous to those in experiment, we observe identical phenomenology in the stress response under a two--step protocol. Our model system also recovers the behaviour under a more recently studied three-step protocol, which consists of a compression followed by a decompression and then a final compression. We show that the observed response in both two-step and three-step protocols can be understood using Linear Response Theory. In particular, a linear scaling with age for the two-step protocol arises generically for slow linear responses with power law or logarithmic decay and does not in itself point to any underlying aging dynamics.
