We consider a two-dimensional array of heterogeneous nonlocally coupled phase oscillators on a flat torus and study the bound states of two counter-rotating spiral chimeras, shortly two-core spiral chimeras, observed in this system. In contrast to other known spiral chimeras with motionless incoherent cores, the two-core spiral chimeras typically show a drift motion. Due to this drift, their incoherent cores become spatially modulated and develop specific fingerprint patterns of varying synchrony levels. In the continuum limit of infinitely many oscillators, the two-core spiral chimeras can be studied using the Ott-Antonsen equation. Numerical analysis of this equation allows us to reveal the stability region of different spiral chimeras, which we group into three main classes-symmetric, asymmetric, and meandering spiral chimeras.

Chimera states in nonidentical oscillators have received extensive attention in recent years. Previous studies have demonstrated that chimera states can exist in a ring of nonlocally coupled bicomponent oscillators even in the presence of strong parameter heterogeneity. In this study, we investigate spiral wave chimeras in two-dimensional nonlocally coupled bicomponent oscillators where oscillators are randomly divided into two groups, with identical oscillators in the same group.

We consider globally coupled networks of identical oscillators, located on the surface of a sphere with interaction time delays, and show that the distance-dependent time delays play a key role for the spiral chimeras to occur as a generic state in different systems of coupled oscillators. For the phase oscillator system, we analyze the existence and stability of stationary solutions along the Ott-Antonsen invariant manifold to find the bifurcation structure of the spiral chimera state. We demonstrate via an extensive numerical experiment that the time-delay-induced spiral chimeras are also present for coupled networks of the Stuart-Landau and Van der Pol oscillators in the same parameter regime as that of phase oscillators, with a series of evenly spaced band-type regions.

We study networks in the form of a lattice of nodes with a large number of phase oscillators and an auxiliary variable at each node. The only interactions between nodes are nearest-neighbor. The Ott/Antonsen ansatz is used to derive equations for the order parameters of the phase oscillators at each node, resulting in a set of coupled ordinary differential equations.

The Brusselator has been used as a prototype model for autocatalytic reactions and, in particular, for the Belousov-Zhabotinsky reaction. When coupled at the diffusive limit, the Brusselator undergoes a Turing bifurcation resulting in the formation of classical Turing patterns, such as spots, stripes, and spirals in two spatial dimensions. In the present study, we use generic nonlocally coupled Brusselators and show that in the limit of the coupling range R→1 (diffusive limit), the classical Turing patterns are recovered, while for intermediate coupling ranges and appropriate parameter values, chimera states are produced.

The spiral chimera state shows a remarkable spatiotemporal pattern in a two-dimensional array of oscillators for which the coherent spiral arms coexist with incoherent cores. In this work, we report on an asymmetric spiral chimera having incoherent cores of different sizes on the spherical surface of identical phase oscillators with nonlocal coupling. This asymmetric spiral chimera exhibits a strongly symmetry-broken state in the sense that not only the coherent and incoherent domains coexist, but also their incoherent cores are nonidentical, although the underlying coupling structure is symmetric.
