Abstract
Computational and experimental works reveal that the coupling of similar crystal oscillators leads to a variety of collective patterns, mainly various forms of discrete rotating waves and synchronization patterns, which have the potential for developing precision timing devices through phase drift reduction. Among all observed patterns, the standard traveling wave, in which consecutive crystals oscillate out of phase by [Formula: see text], where [Formula: see text] is the network size, leads to optimal phase drift error that scales down as [Formula: see text] as opposed to [Formula: see text] for an uncoupled ensemble. In this manuscript, we provide an analytical proof of the scaling laws, for uncoupled and coupled symmetric networks, and show that [Formula: see text] is the fundamental limit of phase-error reduction that one can obtain with a symmetric network of nonlinear oscillators of any type, not just crystals.

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
