A global bifurcation organizing rhythmic activity in a coupled network.
Chaos (Woodbury, N.Y.)(2022)
Abstract
We study a system of coupled phase oscillators near a saddle-node on invariant circle bifurcation and driven by random intrinsic frequencies. Under the variation of control parameters, the system undergoes a phase transition changing the qualitative properties of collective dynamics. Using Ott-Antonsen reduction and geometric techniques for ordinary differential equations, we identify heteroclinic bifurcation in a family of vector fields on a cylinder, which explains the change in collective dynamics. Specifically, we show that heteroclinic bifurcation separates two topologically distinct families of limit cycles: contractible limit cycles before bifurcation from noncontractibile ones after bifurcation. Both families are stable for the model at hand.
