Optimal control of two coupled spinning particles in the Euler-Lagrange picture

M. Delgado-Téllez, A. Ibort, T. Rodríguez de la Peña +1

A family of optimal control problems for a single and two coupled spinning particles in the Euler-Lagrange formalism is discussed. A characteristic of such problems is that the equ…

Inter-layer synchronization in multiplex networks

R. Sevilla-Escoboza, I. Sendiña-Nadal, I. Leyva +3

Inter-layer synchronization is a distinctive process of multiplex networks whereby each node in a given layer undergoes a synchronous evolution with all its replicas in other layer…
