Abstract
Weakly coupled oscillators are used throughout the physical sciences, particularly in mathematical neuroscience to describe the interaction of neurons in the brain. Systems of weakly coupled oscillators have a well-known decomposition to a canonical phase model, which forms the basis of our investigation in this work. Particularly, our interest lies in examining the stability of synchronous (phase-locked) solutions to this phase system: solutions with phases having the same temporal frequency but differing through time-independent phase-lags. The main stability result of this work comes from adapting a series of investigations into random walks on infinite weighted graphs. We provide an interesting link between the seemingly unrelated areas of coupled oscillators and random walks to obtain algebraic decay rates of small perturbations off the phase-locked solutions under some minor technical assumptions. We also provide some interesting and motivating examples that demonstrate the stability of phase-locked solutions, particularly that of a rotating wave solution arising in a well-studied paradigm in the theory of coupled oscillators.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
