# Optimization of a control law to synchronize first-order dynamical systems on Riemannian manifolds by a transverse component

• * Corresponding author: Simone Fiori
• The present paper builds on the previous contribution by the second author, S. Fiori, Synchronization of first-order autonomous oscillators on Riemannian manifolds, Discrete and Continuous Dynamical Systems – Series B, Vol. 24, No. 4, pp. 1725 – 1741, April 2019. The aim of the present paper is to optimize a previously-developed control law to achieve synchronization of first-order non-linear oscillators whose state evolves on a Riemannian manifold. The optimization of such control law has been achieved by introducing a transverse control field, which guarantees reduced control effort without affecting the synchronization speed of the oscillators. The developed non-linear control theory has been analyzed from a theoretical point of view as well as through a comprehensive series of numerical experiments.
