Phase and polarization synchronization in vectorial oscillators

This work studies the synchronization properties of ensemble of N mean-field coupled non-identical cycle limit oscillators, taking into account the polarization degree of freedom (vectorial oscillators). This finds practical applications e.g. when modeling laser oscillators laying in structure not polarization preserving (e.g. arrays of vertical-cavity surface emitting lasers in photonics). Two sources of disorder are introduced into the system to prevent synchronization.
