Synchronization in large ensembles of coupled interacting units is a fundamental phenomenon relevant for the understanding of working mechanisms in neuronal networks, genetic networks, coupled electrical and laser networks, coupled mechanical systems, networks in social sciences, and others. It relates to mathematical and computational analysis of the existence of different states and its stability, clustering, bifurcations and chaos, robustness and sensitivity analysis, etc., at the intersection between synchronization and pattern formation in complex networks. This interdisciplinary oriented Focus Issue presents recent progress in this area with contributions on generic methods, specific model studies, and applications.
耦合相互作用单元的大型集合中的同步是一种基本现象，对于理解神经网络、遗传网络、耦合电气和激光网络、耦合机械系统、社会科学网络等的工作机制至关重要。它涉及复杂网络中同步与模式形成交叉点处不同状态的存在及其稳定性、聚类、分岔和混沌、鲁棒性和敏感性分析等的数学和计算分析。这个以跨学科为导向的焦点问题展示了该领域的最新进展，包括通用方法、特定模型研究和应用方面的贡献。
