Main results (comparable with the best world analogues):
- Foundations of the theory of phase synchronization in non-uniform ensembles of locally diffusely-connected regular and chaotic dynamic systems with continuous and discrete time have been developed;
- Existence of chaotic phase synchronization in ensembles of connected oscillators and in ensembles of connected rotators has been established. It has been shown that chaotic phase synchronization in many respects is similar to synchronization in the ensembles of periodic oscillators;
- It has been shown that transition to the synchronized phase behaviour of chaotic dynamic systems  can occur through bifurcations or internal crises of chaotic attractors;
- A method of automatic phase synchronization in large ensembles of regular and chaotic dynamic systems connected by means of  feedback loops has been proposed;
- The effect of cluster synchronization of elements in the ensembles of globally connected chaotic oscillators has been studied. Necessary conditions for the existence of conditional and unconditional clusters have been investigated. Besides, conditions of stability have been considered for isolated clusters.
