${\displaystyle \theta _{n+1}=\theta _{n}+\Omega -{\frac {K}{2\pi }}\sin(2\pi \theta _{n}).}$

This figure shows ${\displaystyle \theta _{n}\mod 1}$ along the x-axis, with coupling constant K ranging from 0 at the bottom to 4π at the top. The frequency Ω is held constant at 1/3.

Chaotic regions are interspersed with stable region are clearly visible. By comparing this image to the image showing Arnold tongues, and aligning along the Ω=1/3 slice, it becomes apparent that the stable regions correspond to the Arnold tongues, that is, to the regions where the map is mode-locked.
