Abstract
The role of counter-rotating oscillators in an ensemble of coexisting co- and counter-rotating oscillators is examined by increasing the proportion of the latter. The phenomenon of aging transition was identified at a critical value of the ratio of the counter-rotating oscillators, which was otherwise realized only by increasing the number of inactive oscillators to a large extent. The effect of the mean-field feedback strength in the symmetry preserving coupling is also explored. The parameter space of aging transition was increased abruptly even for a feeble decrease in the feedback strength, and, subsequently, aging transition was observed at a critical value of the feedback strength surprisingly without any counter-rotating oscillators. Further, the study was extended to symmetry breaking coupling using conjugate variables, and it was observed that the symmetry breaking coupling can facilitate the onset of aging transition even in the absence of counter-rotating oscillators and for the unit value of the feedback strength. In general, the parameter space of aging transition was found to increase by increasing the frequency of oscillators and by increasing the proportion of the counter-rotating oscillators in both symmetry preserving and symmetry breaking couplings. Further, the transition from oscillatory to aging occurs via a Hopf bifurcation, while the transition from aging to oscillation death state emerges via the pitchfork bifurcation. Analytical expressions for the critical ratio of the counter-rotating oscillators are deduced to find the stable boundaries of the aging transition.
