Atypical Chimera States in an Ensemble of Partially Mobile Particles
Abstract
We study the influence of nonuniform motion of oscillators in a ring chain with nonlocal coupling on their collective dynamics and reveal the mechanism behind the emergence of an atypical chimera state in such systems. The mechanism relies on regular spatially inhomogeneous motion of oscillators, which breaks the symmetry of the effective interaction kernel. This symmetry breaking induces spatial phase correlations in the asynchronous part of the system, giving rise to nonuniformly twisted and previously unobserved coherent-incoherent-twisted states.
