Continuum Description of the Cytoskeleton: Ring Formation in the Cell Cortex
Alexander Zumdieck, Marco Cosentino Lagomarsino, Catalin Tanase +4
Motivated by the formation of ring-like filament structures in the cortex of plant and animal cells, we study the dynamics of a two-dimensional layer of cytoskeletal filaments and…
Synchronization by Reactive Coupling and Nonlinear Frequency Pulling
M. C. Cross, J. L. Rogers, Ron Lifshitz +1
We present a detailed analysis of a model for the synchronization of nonlinear oscillators due to reactive coupling and nonlinear frequency pulling. We study the model for the mean…
Synchronization by Nonlinear Frequency Pulling
M. C. Cross, A. Zumdieck, Ron Lifshitz +1
We analyze a model for the synchronization of nonlinear oscillators due to reactive coupling and nonlinear frequency pulling motivated by the physics of arrays of nanoscale oscilla…
Long Chaotic Transients in Complex Networks
Alexander Zumdieck, Marc Timme, Theo Geisel +1
We show that long chaotic transients dominate the dynamics of randomly diluted networks of pulse-coupled oscillators. This contrasts with the rapid convergence towards limit cycle…
