| Abstract | |
Systems of oscillators whose internal phases and spatial dynamics are coupled, swarmalators, present diverse collective behaviors which in some cases lead to explosive synchronization in a finite population as a function of the coupling parameter between internal phases. Near the synchronization transition, the phase energy of the particles is represented by the XY model, and they undergo a transition which can be of the first order or the second depending on the distribution of natural frequencies of their internal dynamics. The first-order transition is obtained after an intermediate state (static wings phase wave state) from which the nodes, in cascade over time, achieve complete phase synchronization at a precise value of the coupling constant. For a particular case of natural frequencies distribution, a new phenomenon, the rotational splintered phase wave state, is observed and leads progressively to synchronization through clusters switching alternatively from one to two and for which the frequency decreases as the phase coupling increases.
