Book Description

World Scientific Lecture Notes in Complex Systems April 2004
Large populations of interacting active elements, periodic or chaotic, can undergo spontaneous transitions to dynamically ordered states. These collective states are characterized by self-organized coherence revealed by full mutual synchronization of individual dynamics or the formation of multiple synchronous clusters. Such self-organization phenomena are essential for the functioning of complex systems of various origins, both natural and artificial. This book provides a detailed introduction to the theory of collective synchronization phenomena in large complex systems. Transitions to dynamical clustering and synchronized states are systematically discussed. Such concepts as dynamical order parameters, glass like behavior and hierarchical organization are presented.

Editorial Reviews

Review

This book makes an additional contribution to the topic paying special attention to statistical concepts, such as nonequilibrium phase transitions, order parameters and dynamical glasses. Another distinguishing feature of the book is that it includes applications in chemistry, cell biology, and brain science. -- Zentralblatt MATH
