Abstract
Chimera states have drawn great attention during the last several years. Multi-clustered chimera states with several coherent domains are one important type of chimera dynamics due to their relations with pattern formation. In this work, we study a ring of nonlocally coupled Brusselators. We find that the multi-stability of multi-clustered chimera states prevails in the model and that the phenomenon is insensitive to the coupling radius. The mechanisms behind the multi-stability of multi-clustered chimera states are explored. We find that there are two types of multi-clustered chimera states, one occurring at the coupling radius close to 0.5 and the other occurring at the coupling radius away from 0.5. The multi-stability of the former one originates from the periodic two-cluster dynamics in globally coupled Brusselators. The multi-stability of the latter one may be explained by linear growth rates of the perturbation, which are related but insensitive to different wave numbers to homogeneous states.
