Abstract This paper investigates some synchronization behaviors of high‐dimensional Kuramoto models with nonidentical oscillators and interconnection digrphs. By using the matrix Riccati differential equation of the state error variables, it is proved that a high‐dimensional Kuramoto model can achieve local practical synchronization when the interconnection digraph is strongly connected or has a spanning tree. Compared with the existing practical synchronization literature, the results are based on general digraphs instead of complete graphs. Moreover, the complete synchronization is proved for proportional nonidentical oscillators limited on a half‐sphere and interconnected by a strongly connected digraph. Finally, some numerical simulations are given to validate the obtained theoretical results.
