Twisted states in nonlocally coupled phase oscillators with frequency distribution consisting of two Lorentzian distributions with the same mean frequency and different widths
2019
: In globally coupled phase oscillators, the distribution of natural frequency has strong effects on both synchronization transition and synchronous dynamics. In this work, we study a ring of nonlocally coupled phase oscillators with the frequency distribution made up of two Lorentzians with the same center frequency but with different half widths. Using the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, we derive a reduced model in the continuum limit. Based on the reduced model, we analyze the stability of the incoherent state and find the existence of multiple stability islands for the incoherent state depending on the parameters. Furthermore, we numerically simulate the reduced model and find a large number of twisted states resulting from the instabilities of the incoherent state with respect to different spatial modes. For some winding numbers, the stability region of the corresponding twisted state consists of two disjoint parameter regions, one for the intermediate coupling strength and the other for the strong coupling strength.
