This special issue presents scientific findings of the latest advancements in synchronization and other collective behaviors within higher-order networks. While the concept of higher-order interactions was introduced long ago, recent research has witnessed a surge in interest surrounding these networks. These developments underscore the significant impact that non-pairwise connections can have on network dynamics, particularly synchronization. Therefore, this issue aims to represent the emerging trends within this field. The collection comprises papers exploring diverse topics, including synchronization, chimera states, spiral waves, stochastic resonance in higher-order networks, higher-order social networks, and real brain networks, and the impacts of link removal on synchronization and hyper-network alignment. The studies can shed light on the complexities of higher-order networks and pave the way for future advancements in the field.
