SYNCHRONIZATION IN COMPLEX NETWORKS OF NONLINEAR DYNAMICAL SYSTEMSAuthor(s): Chai Wah Wu\nFormat: Hardback\nPublisher: World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd, Singapore\nImprint: World Scientific Publishing Co Pte Ltd\nISBN-13: 9789812709738, 978-9812709738\nSynopsis\nThis book brings together two emerging research areas: synchronization in coupled nonlinear systems and complex networks, and study conditions under which a complex network of dynamical systems synchronizes. While there are many texts that study synchronization in chaotic systems or properties of complex networks, there are few texts that consider the intersection of these two very active and interdisciplinary research [url] main theme of this book is that synchronization conditions can be related to graph theoretical properties of the underlying coupling topology. The book introduces ideas from systems theory, linear algebra and graph theory and the synergy between them that are necessary to derive synchronization cond.
