What does adaptation do to globally coupled networks? In our newest preprint, we developed a mean-field theory that predicts when adaptation turns homogeneous connectivity into heterogeneous network structure, and when it doesn't: arxiv.org/abs/2609.22597

Deviations from global coupling in adaptive oscillator networks: a mean-field theory for the variance of coupling weights
A wide range of physical and biological systems are adaptive networks, in which the dynamics of the nodes and of the edges connecting them co-evolve. Mean-field reductions of such systems typically tr...
