Abstract

This paper mainly discusses how the strength of inter-community links affects the synchronization state of the whole network and the individual community. It is found, when the inter-community link number is neither too small nor too large and the overall coupling strength takes right values, there will be an optimal inter-community link strength value, in which the community networks are in a balance region where the individual community is maximally independent, while the information transmission remains effective among different communities. Combining the result of this paper and that of the number of inter-community links, it is easy to help us find the most effective community networks.
