Notably, he has worked on the network dynamics created by limit cycle oscillators.
Originally, he studied the statistical mechanics of phase transitions, but he began researching nonlinear dynamics due to doubts about the research on dissipative structures by Ilya Prigogine and others, who received the Nobel Prize for their work.
Specially Appointed Professor, Hokkaido University COE 2005 - Received the Asahi Prize for his pioneering research on nonlinear science, such as synchronization phenomena.
