Abstract

In this academic visit, we will develop the concept of real-time vulnerability of synchronized states. Specifically, we propose that the susceptibility of synchronization in systems coupled with respect to perturbations in their oscillatory dynamics has a temporal component, i.e., the consequences for synchronization depend on the instant the disturbance is applied. To develop this aspect, unprecedented for the stability of synchronized states, we will perform a comprehensive analysis of possible sensitivities along the coupled systems trajectory. (AU)
