We characterize the synchronization of two nonidentical spatially extended fields ruled by one-dimensional Complex Ginzburg–Landau equations, in the two regimes of phase and amplitude turbulence. If two fields display the same dynamical regime, the coupling induces a transition to a completely synchronized state. When, instead, the two fields are in different dynamical regimes, the transition to complete synchronization is mediated by defect synchronization. In the former case, the synchronized manifold is dynamically equivalent to that of the unsynchronized systems, while in the latter case the synchronized state substantially differs from the unsynchronized one, and it is mainly dictated by the synchronization process of the space-time defects.

This paper describes the effects of an asymmetric coupling in the synchronization of two spatially extended systems. Namely, we report the consequences induced by the presence of asymmetries in the coupling configuration of a pair of one-dimensional fields obeying Complex Ginzburg–Landau equations. While synchronization always occurs for large enough coupling strengths, asymmetries have the effect of enhancing synchronization and play a crucial role in setting the threshold for the appearance of the synchronized dynamics, as well as in selecting the statistical and dynamical properties of the synchronized motion. We discuss the process of synchronization in the presence of asymmetries by using some analytic expansions valid for a regime of soft spatial temporal chaos (i.e. phase turbulence regime). The influence of phase singularities that break the validity of the analysis is also discussed.

When a thin layer of normal (non-superconducting) material is placed between layers of superconducting material, a superconducting-normal-superconducting junction is formed. This paper considers a model for the junction based on the Ginzburg–Landau equations as the thickness of the normal layer tends to zero. The model is first derived formally by averaging the unknown variables in the normal layer. Rigorous convergence is then established, as well as an estimate for the order of convergence. Numerical results are shown for one-dimensional junctions.

Cellular automata (CA) are important as prototypical, spatially extended, discrete dynamical systems. Because the problem of forecasting dynamic behavior of CA is undecidable, various parameter-based approximations have been developed to address the problem. Out of the analysis of the most important parameters available to this end we proposed some guidelines that should be followed when defining a parameter of that kind. Based upon the guidelines, new parameters were proposed and a set of five parameters was selected; two of them were drawn from the literature and three are new ones, defined here. This article presents all of them and makes their qualities evident. Then, two results are described, related to the use of the parameter set in the Elementary Rule Space: a phase transition diagram, and some general heuristics for forecasting the dynamics of one-dimensional CA. Finally, as an example of the application of the selected parameters in high cardinality spaces, results are presented from experiments involving the evolution of radius-3 CA in the Density Classification Task, and radius-2 CA in the Synchronization Task.

Dimensional Domain

In this paper, we study the Ginzburg–Landau equations for a two dimensional domain which has small size. We prove that if the domain is small, then the solution has no zero, that is no vortex. More precisely, we show that the order parameter Ψ is almost constant. Additionnally, we obtain that if the domain is a disc of small radius, then any non normal solution is symmetric and unique. Then, in the case of a slab, that is a one dimensional domain, we use the same method to derive that solutions are symmetric. The proofs use a priori estimates and the Poincaré inequality.

Definition Of

In this paper I discuss space-time chaos in both locally mixing continuum systems (reaction-diffusion equations, coupled map lattices and functional maps) and individual-based models (probabilistic cellular automata and artificial ecologies). I particularly emphasize quantification and data-analysis and attempt to address the characterization of spatial structure and dynamics in such disordered systems. I discuss the relevance of these ideas to ecology, evolution and epidemiology. The artificial ecologies I consider motivate a new definition of space-time chaos for such systems and new data analysis techniques.
