Robustness of chimera states with respect to noise

Sarah Loos, Anna Zakharova, Jens Christian Claussen, Eckehard Schöll

We investigate amplitude chimera states in nonlinear dynamical networks, which
consist of coexisting domains of synchronized and desynchronized dynamics. In particular,
we analyze the role of stochasticity for these synchronization-desynchronization patterns. We
address the question of robustness and control of amplitude chimera states in the presence of
noise.
