• Abstract: Synchronization transmission describes the emergence of coherence between two uncoupled oscillators mediated by their mutual coupling to an intermediate one. In classical star networks, such mediated coupling gives rise to remote synchronization--where nonadjacent leaf nodes synchronize through a nonsynchronous hub--and to explosive synchronization, characterized by an abrupt collective transition to coherence. In the quantum regime, analogous effects can arise from the interplay between 1:1 phase locking and 2:1 phase-locking blockade in coupled spin-1 oscillators. In this work, we investigate a star network composed of spin-1 oscillators. For identical oscillators, symmetric and asymmetric dissipation lead to distinct transmission behaviors: remote synchronization and quasi-explosive synchronization appear in different coupling regimes, a phenomenon absent in classical counterparts. For nonidentical networks, we find that at large detuning remote synchronization emerges in the weak-coupling regime and evolves into quasi-explosive synchronization as the coupling increases, consistent with classical star-network dynamics. These findings reveal the rich dynamical characteristics of mediated quantum synchronization and point toward new possibilities for exploring synchronization transmission in larger and more complex quantum systems.

  Phase synchronization refers to a kind of collective phenomenon that the phase difference between two or more systems is locked. We observe a novel synchronization phenomenon, i.e., the phase sum, instead of phase difference, is locked. We refer to this distinct synchronization as the phase anti-synchronization, and show that the phase anti-synchronization can be achieved in both the classical and quantum level.

  We report on the switching dynamics of both single and coupled VO2-based oscillators, with resistive and capacitive coupling, and explore the capability of their application in neural networks. For the resistive coupling, it is shown that synchronization takes place at a certain value of the coupling resistance, though it is unstable and a synchronization failure occurs periodically. For the capacitive coupling, two synchronization modes, with weak and strong coupling, are found. The transition between these modes is accompanied by chaotic oscillations.

• Thermal coupling and effect of subharmonic synchronization in a system of two VO2 based oscillators [55.41644538483948]
  We explore a prototype of an oscillatory neural network (ONN) based on vanadium dioxide switching devices. The effective action radius RTC of coupling depends both on the total energy released during switching and on the average power. In the case of a strong thermal coupling, the limit of the supply current parameters, for which the oscillations exist, expands by 10 %. The effect of subharmonic synchronization hold promise for application in classification and pattern recognition.
