We provide an analysis of the classic Kuramoto model of coupled nonlinear oscillators that goes beyond the existing results for all-to-all networks of identical oscillators. Our work is applicable to oscillator networks of arbitrary interconnection topology with uncertain natural frequencies. Using tools from spectral graph theory and control theory, we prove that for couplings above a critical value all the oscillators synchronize, resulting in convergence of all phase differences to a constant value, both in the case of identical natural frequencies as well as uncertain ones. We also provide a series of bounds for the critical values of the coupling strength.
