Abstract

We investigate multiple moving agents on complex networks. Each of them takes a random walk strategy and carries a chaotic oscillator. Remarkably, we find that with increasing the number of agents, a significant transition occurs from intermittent synchronization to complete synchronization. In particular, we observe that the distribution of laminar length presents a clearly power-law behavior in the intermittent synchronization stage. While reaching a complete synchronization state, correlation dimension and recurrence time statistics of synchronous orbits are in excellent agreement with that of their carrying chaotic system under consideration. Our work reveals that the number of moving agents has a profound effect on shaping synchronization behaviors.
