Abstract
In real-world complex systems, heterogeneous components often interact in complex connection patterns and could be schematized by a formalism of multilayer network. In this work, the synchronization characteristics of multilayer network composed of semiconductor lasers (SLs) are investigated systematically. It is demonstrated that the interplay between different layers plays an important role on the synchronization patterns. We elucidate that the performance of cluster synchronization could be facilitated effectively with the introduction of disjoint layer symmetry into network topology. Intertwined stability of clusters from different layers could be decoupled into independent, and the parameter spaces for stable synchronization are extended significantly. The robustness of our proposed regulation scheme on operation parameters is numerically evaluated. Furthermore, the generality of presented theoretical results is validated in networks with more complex topology and multiple layers.
