Improving synchronous ability between complex networks

We investigate the synchronization ability between complex networks and propose a near optimal connection strategy based on one connection. Numerical simulations on scale-free, small-world and random network are presented to prove the effectiveness of the proposed strategy. Furthermore, we find that the synchronization ability of the networks can be improved more largely by enhancing inter-network coupling strength than by enhancing intra-network coupling strength. We find that there is an upper limit for the synchronization ability of the complex networks, and we analyze the corresponding reason.     

Analytics of heteroclinic bifurcation in a 3:1 subharmonic resonance

Analytical approximation of heteroclinic bifurcation in a 3:1 subharmonic resonance is given in this paper. The system we consider that produces this bifurcation is a harmonically forced and self-excited nonlinear oscillator. This bifurcation mechanism, resulting from the disappearance of a stable slow flow limit cycle at the bifurcation point, gives rise to a synchronization phenomenon near the 3:1 resonance. The analytical approach used in this study is based on the collision criterion between the slow flow limit cycle and the three saddles involved in the bifurcation. The amplitudes of the 3:1 subharmonic response and of the slow flow limit cycle are approximated and the collision criterion is applied leading to an explicit analytical condition of heteroclinic connection. Numerical simulations are performed and compared to the analytical finding for validation.

     

Outer synchronization of uncertain small-world networks via adaptive sliding mode control

The outer synchronization of irregular coupled complex networks is investigated with nonidentical topological structures. The switching gain is estimated by an adaptive technique, and a sliding mode controller is designed to satisfy the sliding condition. The outer synchronization between two irregular coupled complex networks with different initial conditions is implemented via the designed controllers with the corresponding parameter update laws. The chaos synchronization of two small-world networks consisting of N uncertain identical Lorenz systems is achieved to demonstrate the applications of the proposed approach.

Stochastic synchronization of complex network via a novel adaptive nonlinear controller

In this paper, a novel adaptive nonlinear controller is designed to achieve stochastic synchronization of complex networks. We find that this novel adaptive nonlinear controller is less conservative and may be more widely used than the traditional adaptive linear controller. By using the properties of Weiner process, the stochastic synchronization of complex networks with stochastic perturbation via the proposed novel adaptive nonlinear controller can be achieved. Experimental tests demonstrate the superior performance of this novel adaptive nonlinear controller as compared to a conventional adaptive linear controller.     

Pinning adaptive synchronization of complex dynamical network with multi-links

Networks with multi-links are universal in the real world such as communication networks, transport networks, and social networks. It is important for us to investigate the control of complex dynamical network with multi-links. In this paper, both local and global stabilities of dynamical network with multi-links are analyzed by applying adaptive control theory and mathematical tools, and some new criteria are proposed to ensure the pinning synchronization. We find that the number of pinned nodes satisfies an inequality for synchronization. Additionally, we solve the problem of how much the coupling strength we need to achieve network synchronization with one pinned node in the network system with multi-links. Finally, numerical examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The complicated bifurcation of an archetypal self-excited SD oscillator with dry friction

In this paper, we investigate the local and global bifurcation behaviors of an archetypal self-excited smooth and discontinuous oscillator driven by moving belt friction. The belt friction is described in the sense of Stribeck characteristic to formulate the mathematical model of the proposed system. For such a friction characteristic, the complicated bifurcation behaviors of the system are discussed. The bifurcation of the multiple sliding segments for this self-excited system is exhibited by analytically exploring the collision of tangent points. The Hopf bifurcation of this self-excited system with viscous damping is analyzed by making the examination of the eigenvalues at the steady state and discussing the stability of the limit cycles. The bifurcation diagrams and the corresponding phase portraits are depicted to demonstrate the complicated dynamical behaviors of double tangency bifurcation, the bifurcation of sliding homoclinic orbit to a saddle, subcritical Hopf bifurcation and grazing bifurcation for this system.     

Synchronization of neutral complex dynamical networks with coupling time-varying delays

In this paper, the synchronization problem for a class of neutral complex dynamical networks with coupling time-varying delays is considered. A delay-dependent synchronization criterion is derived for the synchronization of neutral complex dynamical networks. By the use of a convex representation of the sector-restricted nonlinearity in system dynamics, the stability condition based on the discretized Lyapunov?CKrasovskii functional is obtained via LMI (linear matrix inequality) formulation. The effectiveness of our work is verified through a numerical example and simulation.     

Chaos in the fractional-order complex Lorenz system and its synchronization

In this article, a novel dynamic system, the fractional-order complex Lorenz system, is proposed. Dynamic behaviors of a fractional-order chaotic system in complex space are investigated for the first time. Chaotic regions and periodic windows are explored as well as different types of motion shown along the routes to chaos. Numerical experiments by means of phase portraits, bifurcation diagrams and the largest Lyapunov exponent are involved. A new method to search the lowest order of the fractional-order system is discussed. Based on the above result, a synchronization scheme in fractional-order complex Lorenz systems is presented and the corresponding numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme.     

Cluster synchronization analysis of complex dynamical networks by input-to-state stability

Cluster synchronization is an interesting issue in complex dynamical networks with community structure. In this paper, we study cluster synchronization of complex networks with non-identical systems by input-to-state stability. Some sufficient conditions that ensure cluster synchronization of complex networks are provided. We show that the cluster synchronization is difficult to achieve if there are some links among different clusters. The analysis is then extended to the case where the outer coupling strengths are adaptive. Finally, numerical simulations are given to validate our theoretical analysis.     

Synchronization error bound of chaotic delayed neural networks

Synchronization of master–slave chaotic neural networks are well studied through asymptotic and exponential stability of error dynamics. Besides qualitative properties of error dynamics, there is a need to quantify the error in real-time experiments especially in secure communication system. In this article, we focused on quantitative analysis of error dynamics by finding the exact analytical error bound for the synchronization of delayed neural networks. Using the Halanay inequality, the error bound is going to be obtained in terms of exponential of given system parameters and delay. The time-varying coupling delay has been considered in the neural networks which does not require any restrictive condition on the derivative of the delay. The proposed method can also be applied to find error bound for state estimation problem. The analytical synchronization bound has been corroborated by two examples.     

Noise-induced outer synchronization between two different complex dynamical networks

In this paper, based on the theory of stochastic differential equations, we study the outer synchronization between two different complex dynamical networks with noise coupling. The theoretical result shows that two different complex networks can achieve generalized outer synchronization only with white-noise-based coupling. Numerical examples further verify the effectiveness and feasibility of the theoretical results. Numerical evidence shows that the synchronization rate is proportional to the noise intensity.

Spatiotemporal chaos synchronization between uncertain complex networks with diverse structures

Spatiotemporal chaos synchronization between uncertain complex networks with diverse structures is investigated. The identification law of unknown parameters and the adaptive law of the configuration matrix element in state equations of network nodes are determined based on stability theory, and the conditions of realizing spatiotemporal chaos synchronization between uncertain complex networks with different structures are discussed and obtained. Further, the Fisher–Kolmogorov system with spatiotemporal chaotic behavior is taken as the nodes of drive and response networks to imitate the experiment. It is found that the synchronization performance between two networks is very stable.     

Mixed outer synchronization of dynamical networks with nonidentical nodes and output coupling

Outer synchronization between the drive network and the response network has attracted much more attention in various fields of science and engineering. In this paper, mixed outer synchronization between two complex dynamical networks with nonidentical nodes and output coupling is investigated via impulsive hybrid control, that is, an adaptive feedback controller with impulsive control effects. Moreover, both the cases of complex networks without and with coupling delay are considered. According to the stability analysis of the impulsive functional differential equation, several sufficient conditions for the networks to achieve mixed outer synchronization are derived. Numerical examples are presented finally to illustrate the effectiveness and advantage of the proposed synchronization criteria.     

Self-vibration-induced wear of a friction pair

We study rotational self-excited vibrations of two frictionally coupled disks and consider the case of self-excited vibrations arising in the presence of dry friction, where the disk relative velocity periodically changes sign passing through the point of discontinuity of the friction law. We show that if there are resonances in the system, then undulatory wear arises either on the driving disk or on the driven disks. We find the existence and stability conditions for the corresponding modes.     

神经网络时滞系统非共振双Hopf分岔及其广义同步

本文建立了具有自连接和抑制-兴奋型他连接的两个同性神经元模型。其中自连接是由于兴奋型的突触产生,而他连接则分别对应于两神经元兴奋、抑制型的突触。发现如果有兴奋型自连接就会有双Hopf分岔,而没有时滞自连接时双Hopf分岔就会消失,因此自连接引起了双Hopf分岔。作为一个例子,通过变动连接中的时滞和他连接中的比重,1／√2双Hopf分岔得到了详细研究。通过中心流形约化,分岔点邻域内各种不同的动力学行为得到了分类,并以解析形式表出。神经元活动的分岔路径得以表明。从得到的解析近似解可以发现,本文所研究的具有兴奋一抑制型他连接的两相同神经元的节律不能完全同步而只能广义同步。时滞也可以使其节律消失,两神经元变为非活动的。这些结果在控制神经网络关联记忆和设计人工神经网络方面有着潜在的应用。     

Phase and antiphase synchronization of two identical hyperchaotic complex nonlinear systems

A scheme is designed to achieve phase synchronization (PS) and antiphase synchronization (APS) for an n-dimensional hyperchaotic complex nonlinear system. For this scheme, we have used the idea of an active control technique based on Lyapunov stability analysis to determine analytically the complex control functions which are needed to achieve PS and APS. We applied this scheme, as an example, to study PS and APS of hyperchaotic attractors of two identical hyperchaotic complex Lorenz systems. These complex systems appear in many important fields of physics and engineering. Our scheme can also be applied to two different hyperchaotic complex systems, for which PS and APS have not been investigated, as far as we know, in the literature. Numerical results are plotted to show phases and amplitudes of these hyperchaotic attractors, thus demonstrating that PS and APS are achieved. The bifurcation diagrams are computed for a wide range of parameters of the system parameters and are found to be symmetrical about the horizontal axis for APS, while they lack any symmetry for PS.     

Synchronization of complex networks with nonhomogeneous Markov jump topology

The problem of synchronization of complex networks with nonhomogeneous Markov jump topology and time-varying coupling delay is investigated in this paper. The Markov process in the underlying complex networks is finite piecewise homogeneous, which is a special case of nonhomogeneous Markov process. Based on the Lyapunov functional approach, an exponential stability condition is derived for the error system in terms of the linear matrix inequality method. Based on the condition, the design method of the desired controller is given. An example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed technique.
