Abstract
Synchronization in different types of weighted networks based on a scale-free weighted network model is investigated. It has been argued that heterogeneity suppresses synchronization in unweighted networks [T. Nishikawa, A.E. Motter, Y.C. Lai, F.C. Hoppensteadt, Phys. Rev. Lett. 91 (2003) 014101]. However, it is shown in this work that as the network becomes more heterogeneous, the synchronizability of Type I symmetrically weighted networks, and Type I and Type II asymmetrically weighted networks is enhanced, while the synchronizability of Type II symmetrically weighted networks is weakened.
