Abstract
We present the finite-size Kuramoto model analytically continued from real to
complex variables and analyze its collective dynamics. For strong coupling,
synchrony appears through locked states that constitute attractors, as for the
real-variable system. However, synchrony persists in the form of
\textit{complex locked states} for coupling strengths $K$ below the transition
$K^{(\text{pl})}$ to classical \textit{phase locking}. Stable complex locked
states indicate a locked sub-population of zero mean frequency in the
real-variable model and their imaginary parts help identifying which units
comprise that sub-population. We uncover a second transition at
$K'
