Abstract

The aim of this Chapter is to study chimera states in a network of non-locally coupled Stuart-Landau oscillators. Motivated by former studies, we discuss how a specific set of initial conditions initially separating the network into distinct domains gives rise to a clustered chimera state. Furthermore, the interplay between these initial conditions and non-local coupling is studied. Considering the dynamics of chimera states, our argument shows how “flipped” profiles of the mean phase velocities can be explained by a change of sign of the coupling phase. These profiles are believed to be a distinct feature of (phase) chimeras, at least in the case of non-locally coupled systems. Extending our reasoning, we show that this argument intuitively explains the transition from phase- to amplitude-mediated chimera state as a result of increasing coupling strength.
