Beschreibung
This is the first book devoted to chimera states - peculiar partial synchronization patterns in networks. Providing an overview of the state of the art in research on this topic, it explores how these hybrid states, which are composed of spatially separated domains of synchronized and desynchronized behavior, arise surprisingly in networks of identical units and symmetric coupling topologies. The book not only describes various types of chimeras, but also discusses the role of time delay, stochasticity, and network topology for these synchronization-desynchronization patterns. Moreover, it addresses the question of robustness and control of chimera states, which have various applications in physics, biology, chemistry, and engineering.
This book is intended for researchers with a background in physics, applied mathematics, or engineering. Of great interest to specialists working on related problems, it is also a valuable resource for newcomers to the field and other scientistsworking on the control of spatio-temporal patterns.

“It pays to a blend of rich dynamics and practical considerations, the book will be particularly useful to those readers who are new to the study of complex systems that exhibit chimeras. They will appreciate how Zakharova includes a thorough discussion of topics that tend to puzzle researchers entering the world of chimeras, such as the choice and importance of parameters and initial conditions.” (Per Sebastian Skardal, Physics Today, September, 2021)
