Self-organization of chaos synchronization and pattern formation in coupled chaotic oscillators.
Pattern formation in spatiotemporal chaotic systems is investigated. Temporally chaotic and spatially ordered patterns are observed by varying the coupling strength. Spatial orderings emerge spontaneously due to self-organization of partial and nonlocal chaos synchronization, governed by various types of spatial symmetries. The first and secondary bifurcations from spatially disordered chaos to chaos with different levels of spatial orderings are observed and the scaling behaviors associated with these bifurcations are statistically analyzed.
