What is it about?
This article deals with two of the most fascinating and ubiquitous natural phenomena: synchronization and resonance. The starting point is a precise and assigned network structure. The goal is to study such phenomena when the framework of connections between network elements is predetermined. Such elements are modeled as identical harmonic oscillators. What frequencies make a network of interacting subjects resonate? Which nodes drag the network along and which are transparent to the oscillating frequencies? These are some of the questions the article seeks to answer. The theoretical results are then applied to a specific social network and power grid.

Why is it important?
The results proposed in the paper provide an in-depth understanding of some of the most interesting natural and social cooperative processes. For instance, they allow to catch the effectiveness of a driving force applied on a specific node of the network.
