Synchronization of mobile chaotic agents on connected networks

This work studies the synchronization of a number of mobile agents on a substrate network. Each agent carries a chaotic map and randomly walks on a connected network. The collection of agents consists of another time-varying network derived from the substrate network. It is found that the synchronization conditions of this agent network depend on the average degree of the substrate network’s connectivity, the coupling strength between interacting agents, and the agent density in the network. Synchronization of the agent network on scale-free and ER networks is considered here, and it is found that the scale-free topology is more applicable to synchronize mobile chaotic agents. To get analytical insights, the star graph is taken and considered as a substrate network.
