Monday 05 Mar 2018: Dynamics Seminar: The effects of Structural Perturbations on the dynamics of Networks
Camille Poignard - University of Sao Paulo
LSI Seminar Room A 14:30-15:30
We study the effects of structural perturbations on the dynamics of networks. We first show how the synchronizability of a diffusive network increases (or decreases) when we add some links in its underlying graph. This is of interest in the context of power grids where people want to prevent from having blackouts, or for neural networks where Synchronization is responsible of many diseases such as Parkinson. Based on spectral properties for Laplacian matrices, we show some classification results obtained (with Tiago Pereira and Philipp Pade) with respect to the effects of these links. Then I will show how we can desynchronize (i.e induce chaos) in a stable network by adding links to it.
