Synchronization of nonidentical chaotic fractional-order systems with different orders of fractional derivatives

This paper addresses the problem of synchronization of chaotic fractional-order systems with different orders of fractional derivatives. Based on the stability theory of fractional-order linear systems and the idea of tracking control, suitable controllers are correspondingly proposed for two cases: the first is synchronization between two identical chaotic fractional-order systems with different fractional orders, and the other is synchronization between two nonidentical fractional-order chaotic systems with different fractional orders. Three numerical examples illustrate that fast synchronization can be achieved even between a chaotic fractional-order system and a hyperchaotic fractional-order system.     

Synchronization of a novel fractional order stretch-twist-fold (STF) flow chaotic system and its application to a new authenticated encryption scheme (AES)

In this paper, a new fractional order stretch-twist-fold (STF) flow dynamical system is proposed. The stability analysis of the proposed system equilibria is accomplished and we establish that the system is exhibited chaos even for order less than 3. The active control method is applied to enquire the hybrid phase synchronization between two identical fractional order STF flow chaotic systems. These synchronized systems are applied to formulate an authenticated encryption scheme newly for message (text and image) recovery. It is widely applied in the field of secure communication. Numerical simulations are presented to validate the effectiveness of the proposed theory.     

Adaptive generalized function projective synchronization of uncertain chaotic complex systems

The complex nonlinear systems appear in many important fields of physics and engineering, which are very useful for cryptography and secure communication. This paper investigates adaptive generalized function projective synchronization (AGFPS) between two different dimensional chaotic complex systems with fully or partially unknown parameters via both reduced order and increased order. Based on the Lyapunov stability theorem and adaptive control technique, a general adaptive controller with corresponding parameter update rule is constructed to achieve AGFPS between two nonidentical chaotic complex systems with distinct orders, and identify the unknown parameters simultaneously. This scheme is then applied to obtain AGFPS between the hyperchaotic complex Lü system and the chaotic complex Lorenz system with fully unknown parameters, and between the uncertain chaotic complex Chen system and the uncertain hyperchaotic complex Lorenz system, respectively. Corresponding simulations results are performed to show the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed synchronization method.     

Projective synchronization of hyperchaotic Lü system and Liu system

This work is concerned with projective synchronization of hyperchaotic Lü system and Liu system by add-order method. Different controllers are designed to projective-synchronize the two nonidentical chaotic systems, active control is used when parameters are known, while the adaptive control law and the parameter update rule are derived via adaptive control when parameters are uncertain. Moreover, the convergence rates of the scheme can be adjusted by changing the control coefficients. Finally, numerical simulations are also shown to verify the results.

By employing the Lyapunov function and linear matrix inequality approach, the fuzzy controller design is presented to synchronize the two identical Rikitake systems. Finally, numerical results and simulations are given to demonstrate the advantages of the proposed results.     

Anticipating spike synchronization in nonidentical chaotic neurons

Anticipating synchronization is investigated in nonidentical chaotic systems unidirectionally coupled in a master-slave configuration without a time-delay feedback. We show that if the parameters of chaotic master and slave systems are mismatched in such a way that the mean frequency of a free slave system is greater than the mean frequency of a master system, then the phase synchronization regime can be achieved with the advanced phase of the slave system. In chaotic neural systems, this leads to the anticipating spike synchronization: unidirectionally coupled neurons synchronize in such a way that the slave neuron anticipates the chaotic spikes of the master neuron. We demonstrate our findings with coupled Rössler systems as well as with two different models of coupled neurons, namely, the Hindmarsh–Rose neurons and the adaptive exponential integrate-and-fire neurons.     

Generalized reduced-order hybrid combination synchronization of three Josephson junctions via backstepping technique

In this paper, active backstepping design technique is applied to achieve reduced-order hybrid combination synchronization and reduced-order projective hybrid combination synchronization of three chaotic systems consisting of: (i) two third-order chaotic Josephson junctions as drives and one second-order chaotic Josephson junction as response system; (ii) one third-order chaotic Josephson junction as the drive and two second-order chaotic Josephson junctions as the slaves. Numerical simulations are performed to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the analytical results. Reduced-order combination synchronization has more valuable practical applications to information processing in physical, biological, and social systems than the normal one master system and one slave system synchronization scheme.     

Chaos synchronization of two different chaotic complex Chen and Lü systems

This paper investigates the phenomenon of chaos synchronization of two different chaotic complex systems of the Chen and Lü type via the methods of active control and global synchronization. In this regard, it generalizes earlier work on the synchronization of two identical oscillators in cases where the drive and response systems are different, the parameter space is larger, and the dimensionality increases due to the complexification of the dependent variables. The idea of chaos synchronization is to use the output of the drive system to control the response system so that the output of the response system converges to the output of the drive system as time increases. Lyapunov functions are derived to prove that the differences in the dynamics of the two systems converge to zero exponentially fast, explicit expressions are given for the control functions and numerical simulations are presented to illustrate the success of our chaos synchronization techniques. We also point out that the global synchronization method is better suited for synchronizing identical chaotic oscillators, as it has serious limitations when applied to the case where the drive and response systems are different.     

Projective synchronization between two different time-delayed chaotic systems using active control approach

In this paper, we investigate the projective synchronization between two different time-delayed chaotic systems. A suitable controller is chosen using the active control approach. We relax some limitations of previous work, where projective synchronization of different chaotic systems can be achieved only in finite dimensional chaotic systems, so we can achieve projective synchronization of different chaotic systems in infinite dimensional chaotic systems. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, we suggest a generic method to achieve the projective synchronization between two different time-delayed chaotic systems. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated and verified by observing the projective synchronization between two well-known time-delayed chaotic systems; the Ikeda system and Mackey–Glass system. Numerical simulations fully support the analytical approach.     

Generalized finite-time synchronization between coupled chaotic systems of different orders with unknown parameters

This letter investigates the adaptive finite-time synchronization of different coupled chaotic (or hyperchaotic) systems with unknown parameters. The sufficient conditions for achieving the generalized finite-time synchronization of two chaotic systems are derived based on the theory of finite-time stability of dynamical systems. By the adaptive control technique, the control laws and the corresponding parameters update laws are proposed such that the generalized finite-time synchronization of nonidentical chaotic (or hyperchaotic) systems is to be obtained. These results obtained are in good agreement with the existing one in open literature and it is shown that the technique introduced here can be further applied to various finite-time synchronizations between dynamical systems. Finally, numerical simulations are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Combination–combination synchronization among four identical or different chaotic systems

Based on one drive system and one response system synchronization model, a new type of combination–combination synchronization is proposed for four identical or different chaotic systems. According to the Lyapunov stability theorem and adaptive control, numerical simulations for four identical or different chaotic systems with different initial conditions are discussed to show the effectiveness of the proposed method. Synchronization about combination of two drive systems and combination of two response systems is the main contribution of this paper, which can be extended to three or more chaotic systems. A universal combination of drive systems and response systems model and a universal adaptive controller may be designed to our intelligent application by our synchronization design.     

Dynamics analysis and hybrid function projective synchronization of a new chaotic system

This paper introduces a novel three-dimensional autonomous chaotic system by adding a quadratic cross-product term to the first equation and modifying the state variable in the third equation of a chaotic system proposed by Cai et al. (Acta Phys. Sin. 56:6230, 2007). By means of theoretical analysis and computer simulations, some basic dynamical properties, such as Lyapunov exponent spectrum, bifurcations, equilibria, and chaotic dynamical behaviors of the new chaotic system are investigated. Furthermore, hybrid function projective synchronization (HFPS) of the new chaotic system is studied by employing three different synchronization methods, i.e., adaptive control, system coupling and active control. The proposed approaches are applied to achieve HFPS between two identical new chaotic systems with fully uncertain parameters, HFPS in coupled new chaotic systems, and HFPS between the integer-order new chaotic system and the fractional-order Lü chaotic system, respectively. Corresponding numerical simulations are provided to validate and illustrate the analytical results.     

A new chaotic system with fractional order and its projective synchronization

Based on Rikitake system, a new chaotic system is discussed. Some basic dynamical properties, such as equilibrium points, Lyapunov exponents, fractal dimension, Poincaré map, bifurcation diagrams and chaotic dynamical behaviors of the new chaotic system are studied, either numerically or analytically. The obtained results show clearly that the system discussed is a new chaotic system. By utilizing the fractional calculus theory and computer simulations, it is found that chaos exists in the new fractional-order three-dimensional system with order less than 3. The lowest order to yield chaos in this system is 2.733. The results are validated by the existence of one positive Lyapunov exponent and some phase diagrams. Further, based on the stability theory of the fractional-order system, projective synchronization of the new fractional-order chaotic system through designing the suitable nonlinear controller is investigated. The proposed method is rather simple and need not compute the conditional Lyapunov exponents. Numerical results are performed to verify the effectiveness of the presented synchronization scheme.     

Parameter identification and adaptive impulsive synchronization of uncertain complex-variable chaotic systems

Synchronization of nonlinear dynamical systems with complex variables has attracted much more attention in various fields of science and engineering. In this paper, the problem of parameter identification and adaptive impulsive synchronization for a class of chaotic (hyperchaotic) complex nonlinear systems with uncertain parameters is investigated. Based on the theories of adaptive control and impulsive control, a synchronization scheme is designed to make a class of chaotic and hyperchaotic complex systems asymptotically synchronized, and uncertain parameters are identified simultaneously in the process of synchronization. Particularly, the proposed adaptive–impulsive control laws for synchronization are simple and can be readily applied in practical applications. The synchronization of two identical chaotic complex Chen systems and two identical hyperchaotic complex Lü systems are taken as two examples to verify the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed controllers and identifiers.     

The alternating between complete synchronization and hybrid synchronization of hyperchaotic Lorenz system with time delay

The various cases of synchronization in two identical hyperchaotic Lorenz systems with time delay are studied. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, the sufficient conditions for achieving synchronization of two identical hyperchaotic Lorenz systems with time delay are derived, and a simple scheme only with a single linear controller is proposed. When the parameters in the response system are known, the alternating between complete synchronization and hybrid synchronization (namely, coexistence of antiphase and complete synchronization) is observed with the control feedback gain varying. Furthermore, when the parameters in the response system are unknown, for the same feedback controller, the complete synchronization and the hybrid synchronization can be obtained, respectively, as the associated parameters updated laws of the unknown parameters are chosen. Numerical simulation results are presented to demonstrate the proposed chaos synchronization scheme.     

Anti-synchronization between identical and non-identical fractional-order chaotic systems using active control method

This article deals with the anti-synchronization between two identical chaotic fractional-order Qi system, Genesio–Tesi system, and also between two different fractional-order Genesio–Tesi and Qi systems using active control method. The chaotic attractors of the systems are found for fractional-order time derivatives described in Caputo sense. Numerical simulation results which are carried out using Adams–Boshforth–Moulton method show that the method is reliable and effective for anti-synchronization of nonlinear dynamical evolutionary systems.     

Fractional order fixed-time nonsingular terminal sliding mode synchronization and control of fractional order chaotic systems

This paper presents fractional order fixed-time nonsingular terminal sliding mode control for stabilization and synchronization of fractional order chaotic systems with uncertainties and disturbances. First, a novel fractional order terminal sliding mode surface is proposed to guarantee the fixed-time convergence of system states along the sliding surface. Second, a nonsingular terminal sliding mode controller is designed to force the system states to reach the sliding surface within fixed-time and remain on it forever. Furthermore, the fractional Lyapunov stability theory is used to prove the fixed-time stability and the robustness of the proposed control scheme and estimate the upper bound of convergence time. Next, the proposed control scheme is applied to the synchronization of two nonidentical fractional order Liu chaotic systems and chaos suppression of fractional order power system. Simulation results verify the effectiveness of the proposed control scheme. Finally, some application issues about the proposed scheme are discussed.

     

Effect of coupling,synchronization of chaos and stick-slip motion in two mutually coupled dynamical systems

In this work, we study the synchronization of two coupled chaotic oscillators. The uncoupled system corresponds to a mass attached to a nonlinear spring and driven by a rolling carpet. For identical oscillators, complete synchronization is analyzed using Lyapunov stability theory. This first analysis reveals that stability area of synchronization increases with the values of the coupling coefficient. Numerical simulations are shown to illustrate and validate stick-slip and chaos synchronization. Some cases of anti-synchronization are detected. Curiously, amplification of fixed point either regular or chaotic is observed in the area of anti-synchronization. Furthermore, phase synchronization is studied for nonidentical oscillators. It appears that for certain values of the coupling coefficient, coincidence of the phases is obtained, while the amplitudes remain uncorrelated. Contrarily to the case of complete synchronization, it does not exist a threshold of the coupling from which phase synchronization could appear. Besides, when we add the modified tuned mass damper on the structure, the behavior of the system can change including the appearance of synchronization, particularly in the region of fixed point. More precisely, complete synchronization is improved in the region of fixed point, while the damage of synchronization is observed when the velocity of the carpets is less than \(0.30\) .     

Hybrid robust modified function projective lag synchronization in two different dimensional chaotic systems

In this article, a novel synchronization scheme, modified function projective lag synchronization (MFPLS) in two different dimensional chaotic systems with parameter perturbations, is proposed. In the proposed method, the states of two nonidentical chaotic systems with different orders are asymptotically lag synchronized up to a desired scaling function matrix by means of reduced order and increased order, respectively. Furthermore, based on the reality situation, the parameter perturbations are involved, which are assumed to appear in both drive and response systems. With the Lyapunov stability theory, an adaptive controller is designed to achieve MFPLS. Theoretical proof and numerical simulations demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed scheme.
