Here, we show how time delays and phase shifts lead to different oscillator dynamics and how synchronization rates can be regulated by substituting time delays by phase shifts at a constant collective frequency. For spatially extended systems with time delays, we show that the fastest synchronization can occur for intermediate wavelengths, giving rise to novel synchronization scenarios.5application/pdfeng© 2014 American Physical SocietyAtribución 3.0 EspañaLambert-W-FunctionTime-DelayVertebrate segmentationMutual entrainmentKuramoto modelOscillatorsClockSystems.research articleMatemáticas10.1103/PhysRevLett.112.174101open access11741015Physical Review Letters112AR/0000016746
