Synchronization of spatially extended chaotic systems with asymmetric coupling

In this paper, we report the consequences induced by the presence of asymmetries in the coupling scheme on the synchronization process of a pair of one-dimensional complex fields obeying Complex Ginzburg Landau equations. While synchronization always occurs for large enough coupling strengths, asymmetries have the effect of modifying synchronization thresholds and play a crucial role in selecting the statistical and dynamical properties of the highly coupled synchronized motion. Possible consequences of such asymmetry induced effects in biological and natural systems are discussed.
