A method of distinguishing between the characteristic phases of behavior in complex networks in the intermittent generalized synchronization regime

Abstract

A method of identification of the phases of synchronous and asynchronous intervals in the time realizations of interacting chaotic systems representing elements of a network with complex coupling topology in the state of transition to the generalized synchronization regime is proposed. The method allows determining the duration of the phases of synchronous and asynchronous dynamics, which potentially allows analyzing the statistical characteristics of the intermittent behavior of the discussed systems.
