Popis: We consider an adaptive network, whose connection weights co-evolve in congruence with the dynamical states of the local nodes that are under the influence of an external stimulus. The adaptive dynamical system mimics the adaptive synaptic connections common in neuronal networks. The adaptive network under external forcing displays exotic dynamical states such as itinerant chimeras whose population density of coherent and incoherent domains co-evolves with the synaptic connection, bump states and bump frequency cluster states, which do not exist in adaptive networks without forcing. In addition the adaptive network also exhibits partial synchronization patterns such as phase and frequency clusters, forced entrained, and incoherent states. We introduce two measures for the strength of incoherence based on the standard deviation of the temporally averaged (mean) frequency and on the mean frequency in order to classify the emergent dynamical states as well as their transitions. We provide a two-parameter phase diagram showing the wealth of dynamical states. We additionally deduce the stability condition for the frequency-entrained state. We use the paradigmatic Kuramoto model of phase oscillators which is a simple generic model that has been widely employed in unraveling a plethora of cooperative phenomena in natural and man-made systems.
