Abstract
Nonlocally coupled oscillators with a phase lag self-organize into various patterns, such as global synchronization, the twisted state, and the chimera state. In this paper, we consider nonlocally coupled oscillators that move on a ring by randomly exchanging their positions with the neighbors and investigate the combined effects of phase lag and mobility on the collective phase dynamics. Spanning the whole range of phase lag and mobility, we show that mobility promotes synchronization for an attractive coupling, whereas it destroys coherence for a repulsive coupling. The transition behaviors are discussed in terms of the timescales of synchronization and diffusion of the oscillators. We also find a novel spatiotemporal pattern at the border between coherent and incoherent states.

Abstract
A sufficiently connected topology linking the constituent units of a complex system is usually seen as a prerequisite for the emergence of collective phenomena such as synchronization. We present a random network of heterogeneous phase oscillators in which the links mediating the interactions are constantly rearranged with a characteristic timescale and, possibly, an extremely low instantaneous connectivity. We show that with strong coupling and sufficiently fast rewiring the network reaches partial synchronization even in the vanishing connectivity limit. In particular, we provide an approximate analytical argument, based on the comparison between the different characteristic timescales of our system in the low connectivity regime, which is able to predict the transition to synchronization threshold with satisfactory precision beyond the formal fast rewiring limit. We interpret our results as a qualitative mechanism for emergence of consensus in social communities. In particular, our result suggest that groups of individuals are capable of aligning their opinions under extremely sparse exchanges of views, which is reminiscent of fast communications that take place in the modern social media. Our results may also be relevant to characterize the onset of collective behavior in engineered systems of mobile units with limited wireless capabilities.

Abstract
Individual biological oscillators can synchronize to generate a collective rhythm. During vertebrate development, mobile cells exchange signals to synchronize a rhythmic pattern generator that makes the embryonic segments. Previous theoretical works have shown that cell mobility can enhance synchronization of coupled oscillators when signal exchange is instantaneous. However, in vertebrate segmentation, the exchange of signals is thought to comprise delays from signal sending and processing, which could alter the effect of mobility on synchronization. Here, we study synchronization dynamics of mobile phase oscillators in the presence of coupling delays. We find that mobility can speed up synchronization when coupling delays are present. We derive an analytical expression for the characteristic time of synchronization dynamics, which is in very good agreement with numerical simulations. This analytical expression suggests a subdivision of the mobility range into different dynamical regimes and reveals that, with delayed coupling, synchronization is enhanced at a lower mobility rate than with instantaneous coupling. We argue that these results may be relevant to the synchronization of mobile oscillators in vertebrate segmentation.

Abstract
Different aspects of synchronization emerging in networks of coupled oscillators have been examined prominently in the last decades. Nevertheless, little attention has been paid on the emergence of this imperative collective phenomenon in networks displaying temporal changes in the connectivity patterns. However, there are numerous practical examples where interactions are present only at certain points of time owing to physical proximity. In this work, we concentrate on exploring the emergence of interlayer and intralayer synchronization states in a multiplex dynamical network comprising of layers having mobile nodes performing two-dimensional lattice random walk. We thoroughly illustrate the impacts of the network parameters, in particular, the vision range ϕ and the step size u together with the inter- and intralayer coupling strengths ε and k on these synchronous states arising in coupled Rössler systems. The presented numerical results are very well validated by analytically derived necessary conditions for the emergence and stability of the synchronous states. Furthermore, the robustness of the states of synchrony is studied under both structural and dynamical perturbations. We find interesting results on interlayer synchronization for a continuous removal of the interlayer links as well as for progressively created static nodes. We demonstrate that the mobility parameters responsible for intralayer movement of the nodes can retrieve interlayer synchrony under such structural perturbations. For further analysis of survivability of interlayer synchrony against dynamical perturbations, we proceed through the investigation of single-node basin stability, where again the intralayer mobility properties have noticeable impacts. We also discuss the scenarios related mainly to effects of the mobility parameters in cases of varying lattice size and percolation of the whole network.

Abstract
The synchronization behavior of networked chaotic oscillators with periodic coupling is investigated. It is observed in simulations that the network synchronizability could be significantly influenced by tuning the coupling frequency, even making the network alternating between the synchronous and nonsynchronous states. Using the master stability function method, we conduct a detailed analysis of the influence of coupling frequency on network synchronizability and find that the network synchronizability is maximized at some characteristic frequencies comparable to the intrinsic frequency of the local dynamics. Moreover, it is found that as the amplitude of the coupling increases, the characteristic frequencies are gradually decreased. Using the finite-time Lyapunov exponent technique, we investigate further the mechanism for the maximized synchronizability and find that at the characteristic frequencies the power spectrum of the finite-time Lyapunov exponent is abruptly changed from the localized to broad distributions. When this feature is absent or not prominent, the network synchronizability is less influenced by the periodic coupling. Our study shows the efficiency of finite-time Lyapunov exponent in exploring the synchronization behavior of temporally coupled oscillators and sheds lights on the interplay between the system dynamics and structure in general temporal networks.

Abstract
In this work we revisit the nonmonotonic behavior (NMB) of synchronization time with velocity reported for systems of mobile pulse-coupled oscillators (PCOs). We devise a control parameter that allows us to predict in which range of velocities NMB may occur, also uncovering the conditions allowing us to establish the emergence of NMB based on specific features of the connectivity rule. Specifically, our results show that if the connectivity rule is such that the interaction patterns are sparse and, more importantly, include a large fraction of nonreciprocal interactions, then the system will display NMB. We furthermore provide a microscopic explanation relating the presence of such features of the connectivity patterns to the existence of local clusters unable to synchronize, termed frustrated clusters, for which we also give a precise definition in terms of simple graph concepts. We conclude that, if the probability of finding a frustrated cluster in a system of moving PCOs is high enough, NMB occurs in a predictable range of velocities.

Abstract
We study the synchronization of chaotic units connected through time-delayed fluctuating interactions. Focusing on small-world networks of Bernoulli and Logistic units with a fixed chiral backbone, we compare the synchronization properties of static and fluctuating networks in the regime of large delays. We find that random network switching may enhance the stability of synchronized states. Synchronization appears to be maximally stable when fluctuations are much faster than the time-delay, whereas it disappears for very slow fluctuations. For fluctuation time scales of the order of the time-delay, we report a resynchronizing effect in finite-size networks. Moreover, we observe characteristic oscillations in all regimes, with a periodicity related to the time-delay, as the system approaches or drifts away from the synchronized state.

Abstract
We investigate the macroscopic behavior of a dynamical network consisting of a time-evolving wiring of interactions among a group of random walkers. We assume that each walker (agent) has an oscillator and show that depending upon the nature of interaction, synchronization arises where each of the individual oscillators are allowed to move in such a random walk manner in a finite region of three dimensional space. Here, the vision range of each oscillator decides the number of oscillators with which it interacts. The live interaction between the oscillators is of intermediate type (i.e., not local as well as not global) and may or may not be bidirectional. We analytically derive the density dependent threshold of coupling strength for synchronization using linear stability analysis and numerically verify the obtained analytical results. Additionally, we explore the concept of basin stability, a nonlinear measure based on volumes of basin of attractions, to investigate how stable the synchronous state is under large perturbations. The synchronization phenomenon is analyzed taking limit cycle and chaotic oscillators for wide ranges of parameters like interaction strength k between the walkers, speed of movement v, and vision range r.

Abstract
Complex network approaches have been successfully applied for studying transport processes in complex systems ranging from road, railway, or airline infrastructures over industrial manufacturing to fluid dynamics. Here, we utilize a generic framework for describing the dynamics of geophysical flows such as ocean currents or atmospheric wind fields in terms of Lagrangian flow networks. In this approach, information on the passive advection of particles is transformed into a Markov chain based on transition probabilities of particles between the volume elements of a given partition of space for a fixed time step. We employ perturbation-theoretic methods to investigate the effects of modifications of transport processes in the underlying flow for three different problem classes: efficient absorption (corresponding to particle trapping or leaking), constant input of particles (with additional source terms modeling, e.g., localized contamination), and shifts of the steady state under probability mass conservation (as arising if the background flow is perturbed itself). Our results demonstrate that in all three cases, changes to the steady state solution can be analytically expressed in terms of the eigensystem of the unperturbed flow and the perturbation itself. These results are potentially relevant for developing more efficient strategies for coping with contaminations of fluid or gaseous media such as ocean and atmosphere by oil spills, radioactive substances, non-reactive chemicals, or volcanic aerosols.

Abstract
In this article the Proteasome, Endoplasmic Reticulum and Mitochondria (PERM) hypothesis is discussed. The complex machinery made by three homeostatic mechanisms involving the proteasome (P), endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria (M) is addressed in order to elucidate the beneficial role of many xenobiotics, either trace metals or phytochemicals, which are spread in the human environment and in dietary habits, exerting their actions on the mechanisms underlying cell survival (apoptosis, cell cycle regulation, DNA repair and turnover, autophagy) and stress response. The "PERM hypothesis" suggests that xenobiotics can modulate this central signaling and the regulatory engine made fundamentally by the ER, mitochondria and proteasome, together with other ancillary components such as peroxisomes, by acting on the energetic balance, redox system and macromolecule turnover. In this context, reactive species and stressors are fundamentally signalling molecules that could act as negative-modulating signals if PERM-mediated control is offline, impaired or dysregulated, as occurs in metabolic syndrome, degenerative disorders, chronic inflammation and cancer. Calcium is an important oscillatory input of this regulation and, in this hypothesis, it might play a role in maintaining the correct rhythm of this PERM modulation, probably chaotic in its nature, and guiding cells to a more drastic decision, such as apoptosis. The commonest effort sustained by cells is to maintain their survival balance and the proterome has the fundamental task of supporting this mechanism. Mild stress is probably the main stimulus in this sense. Hormesis is therefore re-interpreted in the light of this hypothetical model and that experimental evidence arising from flavonoid and hormesis reasearch.
