针对真实世界中大规模网络都具有明显聚类效应的特点, 提出一类具有高聚类系数的加权无标度网络演化模型, 该模型同时考虑了优先连接、三角结构、随机连接和社团结构等四种演化机制. 在模型演化规则中, 以概率p增加单个节点, 以概率1–p增加一个社团. 与以往研究的不同在于新边的建立, 以概率φ在旧节点之间进行三角连接, 以概率1–φ进行随机连接. 仿真分析表明, 所提出的网络度、强度和权值分布都是服从幂律分布的形式, 且具有高聚类系数的特性, 聚类系数的提高与社团结构和随机连接机制有直接的关系. 最后通过数值仿真分析了网络演化机制对同步动态特性的影响, 数值仿真结果表明, 网络的平均聚类系数越小, 网络的同步能力越强. 关键词： 无标度网络 加权网络 聚类系数 同步能力     

推广的失活网络动力学同步优化

在不改变网络度分布的条件下,研究了推广的失活网络的同步行为. 应用特征值比R来衡量网络的同步能力,发现同步能力可以通过改变结构参数——激活节点数M来进行优化.特征值比R随M的变化非常敏感,激活节点数M越大,特征值比R越小,同步能力就越强,且在一定范围内遵循R～M^-2.0的幂律关系.通过引入结构微扰,该网络的同步能力也可以得到有效优化. 关键词： 推广的失活网络 同步 特征值比 优化     

两层星形网络的特征值谱及同步能力

多层网络是当今网络科学研究的一个前沿方向.本文深入研究了两层星形网络的特征值谱及其同步能力的问题.通过严格导出的两层星形网络特征值的解析表达式,分析了网络的同步能力与节点数、层间耦合强度和层内耦合强度的关系.当同步域无界时,网络的同步能力只与叶子节点之间的层间耦合强度和网络的层内耦合强度有关;当叶子节点之间的层间耦合强度比较弱时,同步能力仅依赖于叶子节点之间的层间耦合强度;而当层内耦合强度比较弱时,同步能力依赖于层内耦合强度;当同步域有界时,节点数、层间耦合强度和层内耦合强度对网络的同步能力都有影响.当叶子节点之间的层间耦合强度比较弱时,增大叶子节点之间的层间耦合强度会增强网络的同步能力,而节点数、中心节点之间的层间耦合强度和层内耦合强度的增大反而会减弱网络的同步能力;而当层内耦合强度比较弱时,增大层内耦合强度会增强网络的同步能力,而节点数、层间耦合强度的增大会减弱网络的同步能力.进一步,在层间和层内耦合强度都相同的基础上,讨论了如何改变耦合强度更有利于同步.最后,对两层BA无标度网络进行数值仿真,得到了与两层星形网络非常类似的结论.

簇间连接方式不同的簇网络的同步过程研究

本文对簇间连接方式不同的三类簇网络的同步能力和同步过程进行研究. 构成簇网络的两个子网均为BA无标度网络, 当簇间连接方式是双向耦合时, 称其为TWD网络模型, 当簇间连接是大子网驱动小子网时, 称其为BDS网络模型, 当簇间连接是小子网驱动大子网时, 称其为SDB网络模型. 研究表明, 当小子网和大子网节点数目的比值大于某一临界值时, TWD网络模型的同步能力大于BDS网络模型的同步能力, 当该比值小于某一临界值时, TWD网络模型的同步能力小于BDS网络模型的同步能力, SDB网络模型的同步能力是三种网络结构中最差的. 对于簇间连接具有方向性的单向驱动网络, 簇网络的整体同步能力与被驱动子网的节点数和簇间连接数有关, 与驱动网络自身节点数无关. 增加簇间连接数在开始时会降低各子网的同步速度, 但最终各子网到达完全同步的时间减少, 网络的整体同步能力增强. 文中以Kuramoto相振子作为网络节点, 研究了不同情况下三种簇网络的同步过程, 证明了所得结论的正确性. 关键词： 簇网络 有向连接 同步能力 Kuramoto振子

Improving consensus and synchronizability of networks of coupled systems via adding links

The problem of improving the consensus and synchronizability for weighted networks of dynamic systems via adding links among them is investigated in this paper. A weighted network entropy is introduced to measure the homogeneity of the weighted networks. The relationship between the homogeneity and the consensus and synchronizability is analyzed. A solution scheme is proposed to improve the consensus and synchronizability of the weighted networks through maximizing their homogeneity via adding as few links as possible. Weighted networks created from the Barrat model are tested by using the proposed scheme, and two commonly used link-adding approaches are selected to compare with this scheme. Computer simulation results show that the proposed link-adding scheme can enhance the consensus and the synchronizability of the weighted networks effectively and efficiently.     

Synchronization in weighted complex networks: Heterogeneity and synchronizability

Synchronization in different types of weighted networks based on a scale-free weighted network model is investigated. It has been argued that heterogeneity suppresses synchronization in unweighted networks [T. Nishikawa, A.E. Motter, Y.C. Lai, F.C. Hoppensteadt, Phys. Rev. Lett. 91 (2003) 014101]. However, it is shown in this work that as the network becomes more heterogeneous, the synchronizability of Type I symmetrically weighted networks, and Type I and Type II asymmetrically weighted networks is enhanced, while the synchronizability of Type II symmetrically weighted networks is weakened.     

Better synchronizability predicted by a new coupling method

In this paper, inspired by the idea that different nodes should play different roles in network synchronization, we bring forward a coupling method where the coupling strength of each node depends on its neighbors' degrees. Compared with the uniform coupled method and the recently proposed Motter-Zhou-Kurths method, the synchronizability of scale-free networks can be remarkably enhanced by using the present coupling method, and the highest network synchronizability is achieved at β=1 which is similar to a method introduced in [AIP Conf. Proc. 776, 201 (2005)].     

Synchronization speed of identical oscillators on community networks

Synchronizability of complex oscillators networks has attracted much research interest in recent years. In contrast, in this paper we investigate numerically the synchronization speed, rather than the synchronizability or synchronization stability, of identical oscillators on complex networks with communities. A new weighted community network model is employed here, in which the community strength could be tunable by one parameter δ. The results showed that the synchronization speed of identical oscillators on community networks could reach a maximal value when δ is around 0.1. We argue that this is induced by the competition between the community partition and the scale-free property of the networks. Moreover, we have given the corresponding analysis through the second least eigenvalue λ₂ of the Laplacian matrix of the network which supports the previous result that the synchronization speed is determined by the value of λ₂.     

On synchronizability and heterogeneity in unweighted networks

Synchronization in classes of continuous-time dynamical unweighted networks with different topologies is investigated. A synchronization-optimal network model based on rewiring of links is proposed. Compared with other networks, it exhibits a stronger synchronizability. We presented link density and investigated the correlation of synchronizability, link density and heterogeneity in degree distribution. In this work, it will be shown that synchronizability of Type I networks is independent of heterogeneity in the degree distribution when the link density is smaller than 0.02. Synchronizability and link density are proportional. When the link density is larger than 0.025, heterogeneity decides the curve slope. The synchronizability of Type II networks is drastically enhanced by enhancing the link density when the link density is smaller than 0.025. However synchronizability increases weakly by enhancing the link density when the link density is larger than 0.025.     

多层单向耦合星形网络的特征值谱及同步能力分析

随着复杂网络同步的进一步发展,对复杂网络的研究重点由单层网络转向更加接近实际网络的多层有向网络.本文分别严格推导出三层、多层的单向耦合星形网络的特征值谱,并分析了耦合强度、节点数、层数对网络同步能力的影响,重点分析了层数和层间中心节点之间的耦合强度对多层单向耦合星形网络同步能力的影响,得出了层数对多层网络同步能力的影响至关重要.当同步域无界时,网络的同步能力与耦合强度、层数有关,同步能力随其增大而增强;当同步域有界时,对于叶子节点向中心节点耦合的多层星形网络,当层内耦合强度较弱时,层内耦合强度的增大会使同步能力增强,而层间叶子节点之间的耦合强度、层数的增大反而会使同步能力减弱;当层间中心节点之间的耦合强度较弱时,层间中心节点之间的耦合强度、层数的增大会使同步能力增强,层内耦合强度、层间叶子节点之间的耦合强度的增大反而会使同步能力减弱.对于中心节点向叶子节点耦合的多层星形网络,层间叶子节点之间的耦合强度、层数的增大会使同步能力增强,层内耦合强度、节点数、层间中心节点之间的耦合强度的增大反而会使同步能力减弱.     

Are networks with more edges easier to synchronize,or not？

In this paper, the relationship between network synchronizability and the edge-addition of its associated graph is investigated. First, it is shown that adding one edge to a cycle definitely decreases the network synchronizability. Then, since sometimes the synchronizability can be enhanced by changing the network structure, the question of whether the networks with more edges are easier to synchronize is addressed. Based on a subgraph and complementary graph method, it is shown by examples that the answer is negative even if the network structure is arbitrarily optimized. This reveals that generally there are redundant edges in a network, which not only make no contributions to synchronization but actually may reduce the synchronizability. Moreover, a simple example shows that the node betweenness centrality is not always a good indicator for the network synchronizability. Finally, some more examples are presented to illustrate how the network synchronizability varies following the addition of edges, where all the examples show that the network synchronizability globally increases but locally fluctuates as the number of added edges increases.     

Enhancing synchronizability by rewiring networks

<正>According to different forms of synchronized region,complex networks are divided into typeⅠ(unbounded synchronization region) and typeⅡ(bounded synchronization region) networks.This paper presents a rewiring algorithm to enhance the synchronizability of typeⅠand typeⅡnetworks.By utilizing the algorithm for an unweighted and undirected network,a better synchronizability of network with the same number of nodes and edges can be obtained. Numerical simulations on several different network models are used to support the proposed procedure.The relationship between different topological properties of the networks and the number of rewirings are shown.It finds that the final optimized network is independent of the initial network,and becomes homogeneous.In addition the optimized networks have similar structural properties in the sense of degree,and node and edge betweenness centralities.However,they do not have similar cluster coefficients for typeⅡnetworks.The research may be useful for designing more synchronizable networks and understanding the synchronization behaviour of networks.
