Abstract

Swarmalators are oscillatory systems endowed with a spatial component, whose spatial and phase dynamics affect each other. Such systems can demonstrate fascinating collective dynamics resembling many real-world processes. Through this work, we study a population of swarmalators where they are divided into different communities. The strengths of spatial attraction, repulsion, as well as phase interaction differ from one group to another. Also, they vary from intercommunity to intracommunity. We encounter, as a result of variation in the phase coupling strength, different routes to achieve the static synchronization state by choosing several parameter combinations. We observe that when the intercommunity phase coupling strength is sufficiently large, swarmalators settle in the static synchronization state. However, with a significant small phase coupling strength the state of antiphase synchronization as well as chimeralike coexistence of sync and async are realized. Apart from rigorous numerical results, we have been successful to provide semianalytical treatment for the existence and stability of global static sync and the antiphase sync states.
