Globally clustered chimera states in delay-coupled populations

We have identified the existence of globally clustered chimera states in delay-coupled oscillator populations and find that these states can breathe periodically and aperiodically and become unstable depending upon the value of coupling delay. We also find that the coupling delay induces frequency suppression in the desynchronized group. We provide numerical evidence and theoretical explanations for the above results and discuss possible applications of the observed phenomena.
