title: Synchronization using dynamic coupling.
abstract: A systematic coupling procedure is introduced for synchronizing arbitrary chaotic dynamical systems. This coupling exploits the existing contraction properties of the flow and suppresses divergence only along those directions in state space, where the underlying flow is not contracting. In this way, systems can be synchronized using a minimum of transmitted information for guaranteed high-quality synchronization. Applications in combination with sporadic driving and in partitioned state spaces are numerically illustrated.
