abstract = {We study numerically the dynamics of a network of
all-to-all-coupled, identical sub-networks consisting of
diffusively coupled, non-identical FitzHugh–Nagumo
oscillators. For a large range of within- and
between-network couplings, the network exhibits a variety of
dynamical behaviors, previously described for single,
uncoupled networks. We identify a region in parameter space
in which the interplay of within- and between-network
couplings allows for a richer dynamical behavior than can be
observed for a single sub-network. Adjoining this atypical
region, our network of networks exhibits transitions to
multistability. We elucidate bifurcations governing the
transitions between the various dynamics when crossing this
region and discuss how varying the couplings affects the
effective structure of our network of networks. Our findings
indicate that reducing a network of networks to a single
(but bigger) network might not be accurate enough to
properly understand the complexity of its dynamics.Many
natural systems ranging from ecology to the neurosciences
can be described as networks of networks. An example is
interacting patches of neural tissue, where each patch
constitutes a sub-network. In such a configuration and other
models, the sub-networks are often assumed to be identical
but consisting of non-identical units. A question arising
for such networks of networks is as to what extent their
dynamics can be reduced to a more simple network by
aggregating parts of the network. We here explore this
question by investigating numerically the dynamics of a
network of all-to-all-coupled, identical networks consisting
of diffusively coupled, non-identical excitable
FitzHugh–Nagumo oscillators. Intriguingly, we identify a
small region of the parameter space spanned by the within-
and between-network coupling strength that allows for a
richer dynamical behavior than what can be observed for a
single sub-network.},
