Synchronization: A Universal Concept in Nonlinear Sciences
ll giorno giovedì 14 Gennaio 2021 alle ore 14.00, sulla piattaforma Microsoft Teams (apertura Team 13:50),
il Prof. Juergen Kurths, del Dipartimento di Complexity Science, Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, Germany, terrà un Colloquium intitolato:
"Synchronization: A Universal Concept in Nonlinear Sciences"
ABSTRACT
Synchronization phenomena are abundant in nature, science, engineering and social life. Synchronization was first recognized by Christiaan Huygens in 1665 for coupled pendulum clocks; this was the beginning of nonlinear sciences. First, several examples of synchronization in periodic systems are presented, such as in clocks and even in the mechanics of bridges. Second synchronization phenomena in coupled complex systems are discussed. Then it is explained how to identify such phenomena in experimental data and especially in physiological measurements, such as brain or heart rate data. This mainly refers to rather simple geometry of chaotic behaviour with small diffusion of the phase. Then, it is shown how to detect and quantify phase synchronization in much more complex geometries of chaotic oscillators. Third, synchronization concepts are extended to spatio-temporal systems and in particular to complex networks. Basic applications to power grids and human brain will be discussed to demonstrate the power of this approach.
