20. One can easily confirm numerically that the largest eigenvalue of the product of a few matrices converges to the expected value for a single matrix. However, we are not aware of a rigorous mathematical extension of the sufficient condition of this theorem 14 for the complex case.

24. We would like to point out that the recent work (after submission of this paper) on coupled Josephson junction arrays with disorder [Y. Braiman, W. L. Ditto, K. Wiesenfeld and M. L. Spano, Phys. Lett. A206, 54 (1995)] gives a similar explanation for the observation that introducing disorder in JJA’s improves the synchronization considerably.
