The ‘Order Parameter’ Description “The order parameter”
N→∞ Introduce the distribution function f(q,w,t) [the fraction of oscillators with phases in the range (q,q+dq) and frequencies in the range (w,w+dw) ] Conservation of number of oscillators: 0 and similar formulations for generalizations
The Main Message of This Lecture* Considering the Kuramoto model and its generalizations, for i.c.’s f( w,q,0 ) [or f s( w,q,0 ) in the case of oscillator groups], lying on a submanifold M (specified later) of the space of all possible distribution functions f, • f(w,q, t) continues to lie in M, • for appropriate g(w ) the time evolution of r( t ) (or rs( t )) satisfies a finite set of ODE’s which we obtain. * Ott and Antonsen, arXiv:0806.0004 and Chaos 18, 037113 (‘08); and arXiv:0902.2773 (’09) and Chaos 19, 023119 (‘09).
Comments M • M is an invariant submanifold. • ODE’sgive ‘macroscopic’ evolution of the order parameter. • Evolution of f(w,q,t ) is infinite dimensional even though macroscopic evolution is finite dimensional. • Is it useful? Yes: we have recently shown that, under weak conditions, M contains all the attractors and bifurcations of the order parameter dynamics when there is nonzero spread in the frequency distribution.
Specifying the Submanifold M The Kuramoto Model as an Example: Inputs:k, the coupling strength, and the initial condition, f(w,q,0) (infinite dimensional). M is specified by two constraints on f(w,q,0):
Specifying the Manifold M(continued) Fourier series for f: Constraint #1: Question: For t >0 does ?
Specifying the Manifold M(continued) Constraint #2:α(ω,0) is analytic for all real ω, and, when continued into the lower-half complex ω-plane ( Im(ω)< 0 ) , (a) α(ω,0) has no singularities in Im(ω)< 0, (b) lim α(ω,0)→ 0 as Im(ω) → -∞ . • It can be shown that, if α(ω,0) satisfies constraints 1 and 2, then so does α(ω,t) for all t < ∞. • The invariant submanifold Mis the collection of distribution functions satisfying constraints 1 and 2. • The problem for α(ω,t) is still infinite dimensional.
If, for Im(ω)< 0, |α(ω,0)|<1, then |α(ω,t)|<1 : Multiply by α* and take the real part: At |α(ω,t)|=1: |α|starting in |α(ω,0)| < 1cannot cross into|α(ω,t)| > 1. |α(ω,t)| < 1and the solution exists for all t( Im(ω)< 0 ).
If α(ω,0) → 0 as Im(ω) → -∞, then so does α(ω,t) Since |α| < 1, we also have (recall that ) | R(t)|< 1and . Thus |α| → 0asIm(ω) → -∞for all time t.
Lorentzian g(ω) Set ω = ω0 –iΔin
Solution for |R(t)|=r(t) Thus this steady solution is nonlinearly stable and globally attracting.

Further Discussion • Our method can treat certain other g(w)’s, e.g., g(w) ~ [(w-w0 )4 + D4 ]-1, or g(ω)=[polynomial]/[polynomial]. Then there are s coupled ODE’s for s order parameters where s is the number of poles of g(ω) in Im(ω)<0. • For generalizations in which s interacting groups are treated our method yields a set of s coupled complex ODE’s for s complex order parameters. E.g., s=2 for the chimera problem. • Numerical and analytical work [e.g., Martens, et al. (‘09); Lee, et al. (‘09); Laing (‘09)] shows similar results from Lorentzian and Gaussian distributions of oscillator frequencies, implying that qualitative behavior does not depend on details of g(ω).
ATTRACTION TO M Ott & Antonsen have recently rigorously shown that, for the Kuramoto model and its generalizations discussed above, all attractors of the order parameter dynamics and their bifurcations occur on M, provided that > 0, and certain weak additional conditions are satisfied. I.e., M is an inertial manifold wrt a proper choice of the distance metric in the space of distribution functions f. Ref.: arXiv:0902.2773; and Chaos 19, 023117(‘09). If =0, long time behavior not on M can occur [e.g., Pikovsky & Rosenblum, PhysRevLett (‘08); Marvel & Strogatz, Chaos 19 (‘09); Sethia, Strogatz & Sen, SIAM mtg.(‘09)]. The long time behavior of systems of heterogeneous oscillators is simpler when the oscillator frequencies are heterogeneous (>0). (Furthermore, for all the previous generalizations of Kuramoto, >0 is the more realistic model.)
k < kc r t Stimulus Stimulus Echo TRANSIENT BEHAVIOR: ECHOES • The transient behavior that occurs as the orbit relaxes to M can be nontrivial. An example of this is the ‘echo’ phenomenon studied in Ott, Platig, Antonsen & Girvan, Chaos 18, 037115(‘08). [Similar to Landau echoes in plasmas; e.g., T.M.O’Neil & R.W.Gould, Phys. Fluids (1968).] • For the classical Kuramoto model with k below its critical value and external stimuli:
AN ANALOGY N eqs. for N>>1 oscillator phases. Relaxation to M. ODE description for order parameter. Hamilton’s eqs. for N>>1 interacting fluid particles. Relaxation to a local Maxwellian. Fluid eqs. for moments (density, velocity, temp., …).
Conclusion • The long time macroscopic behavior of large systems of globally coupled oscillators has been demonstrated to be low dimensional. • Systems of ODE’s describing this low dimensional behavior can be explicitly obtained and utilized to discover and analyze all the long time behavior (e.g., the attractors and bifurcations) of these systems. • Ref.: Ott & Antonsen, Chaos 18, 037113 (2008).
