Multiswitching dual combination synchronization of time‐delay chaotic systems

This paper presents a novel synchronization scheme of multiswitching dual combination synchronization which is first of its kind. Multiswitching dual combination synchronization is achieved for 6 time‐delay chaotic systems. Asymptotically stable synchronization states are established by nonlinear control method and Lyapunov Krasovskii functional. To elaborate the proposed scheme, an example of time‐delay Rossler, Chen, and Shimizu Morioka systems is considered, where time‐delay Rossler system and Chen system are considered as drive systems and time‐delay Shimizu Morioka system is considered as response system. Theoretical analysis and computational results are in excellent agreement.     

Finite‐time synchronization of a class of N‐coupled complex partial differential systems with time‐varying delay

This study examines finite‐time synchronization for a class of N‐coupled complex partial differential systems (PDSs) with time‐varying delay. The problem of finite‐time synchronization for coupled drive‐response PDSs with time‐varying delay is similarly considered. The synchronization error dynamic of the PDSs is defined in the q‐dimensional spatial domain. We construct a feedback controller to achieve finite‐time synchronization. Sufficient conditions are derived by using the Lyapunov‐Krasoviskii stability approach and inequalities technology to ensure that the proposed networks achieve synchronization in finite time. The proposed systems demonstrate extensive application. Finally, an example is used to verify the theoretical results.     

Robust adaptive neural network synchronization controller design for a class of time delay uncertain chaotic systems

In this paper, a robust adaptive neural network synchronization controller is proposed for two chaotic systems with input time delay and uncertainty. The studied chaotic system may possess a wide class of nonlinear time-delayed input uncertainty. The radial basis function (RBF) neural network is used to approximate the unknown continuous bounded function item of the time delay uncertainty via appropriate weight value updated law. With the output of RBF neural network, a robust adaptive synchronization control scheme is presented for the time delay uncertain chaotic system. Finally, a simulation example is used to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed synchronization control scheme.     

Finite-time synchronization for coupled systems with time delay and stochastic disturbance under feedback control

This paper proposes a framework for finite-time synchronization of coupled systems with time delay and stochastic disturbance under feedback control. Combining Kirchhoff"s Matrix Tree Theorem with Lyapunov method as well as stochastic analysis techniques, several sufficient conditions are derived. Differing from previous references, the finite time provided by us is related to topological structure of networks. In addition, two concrete applications about stochastic coupled oscillators with time delay and stochastic Lorenz chaotic coupled systems with time delay are presented, respectively. Besides, two synchronization criteria are provided. Ultimately, two numerical examples are given to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the obtained results.     

Projective synchronization of time‒delayed chaotic systems with unknown parameters using adaptive control method

The present article aims to study the projective synchronization between two identical and non?identical time?delayed chaotic systems with fully unknown parameters. Here the asymptotical and global synchronization are achieved by means of adaptive control approach based on Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional theory. The proposed technique is successfully applied to investigate the projective synchronization for the pairs of time?delayed chaotic systems amongst advanced Lorenz system as drive system with multiple delay Rössler system and time?delayed Chua's oscillator as response system. An adaptive controller and parameter update laws for unknown parameters are designed so that the drive system is controlled to be the response system. Numerical simulation results, depicted graphically, are carried out using Runge–Kutta Method for delay?differential equations, showing that the design of controller and the adaptive parameter laws are very effective and reliable and can be applied for synchronization of time?delayed chaotic systems.

Dupire It\^{o}’s formula for the exponential synchronization of stochastic semi-Markov jump systems with mixed delay under impulsive control

This paper emphasizes the exponential synchronization for a class of stochastic semi-Markov jump systems with mixed delay via stochastic hybrid impulsive control. The impulsive sequence includes synchronous and asynchronous impulses with the impulsive gains being a sequence of stochastic variables. Inspired by the idea of average, a concept of ``average stochastic impulsive gain" is used to qualify the impulse intensity. Our approach expands Dupire functional It\^{o}$"s formula to the stochastic semi-Markov jump systems with mixed delay for the first time. Moreover, in view of the established Lyapunov functional, graph theory, and stochastic analysis theory, some exponential synchronization criteria for the systems are derived. The theoretical results are applied to a class of Chua"s circuit systems with semi-Markov jump and mixed delay. Some synchronization criteria for the circuit systems are provided. The simulation results verify the effectiveness of the theoretical results.     

Simple robust technique using time delay estimation for the control and synchronization of Lorenz systems

This work presents two simple and robust techniques based on time delay estimation for the respective control and synchronization of chaos systems. First, one of these techniques is applied to the control of a chaotic Lorenz system with both matched and mismatched uncertainties. The nonlinearities in the Lorenz system is cancelled by time delay estimation and desired error dynamics is inserted. Second, the other technique is applied to the synchronization of the Lü system and the Lorenz system with uncertainties. The synchronization input consists of three elements that have transparent and clear meanings.Since time delay estimation enables a very effective and efficient cancellation of disturbances and nonlinearities, the techniques turn out to be simple and robust. Numerical simulation results show fast, accurate and robust performance of the proposed techniques, thereby demonstrating their effectiveness for the control and synchronization of Lorenz systems.     

Synchronization of two coupled multimode oscillators with time-delayed feedback

Effects of synchronization in a system of two coupled oscillators with time-delayed feedback are investigated. Phase space of a system with time delay is infinite-dimensional. Thus, the picture of synchronization in such systems acquires many new features not inherent to finite-dimensional ones. A picture of oscillation modes in cases of identical and non-identical coupled oscillators is studied in detail. Periodical structure of amplitude death and “broadband synchronization” zones is investigated. Such a behavior occurs due to the resonances between different modes of the infinite-dimensional system with time delay.     

Switching among three different kinds of synchronization for delay chaotic systems

We found that the complete synchronization, anticipating synchronization and lag synchronization can be reached by the same kind of one way coupling for a large class of chaotic delay system. By changing the transformation time of the coupling signal we can switch from anticipating synchronization to complete synchronization, and then to lag synchronization. Numerical simulation for three chaotic delay systems were presented, one of them was novel which had two degree of freedoms, and the other two were the well known Ikeda and Mackey–Glass system which are one degree of freedom chaotic delay system. The theoretical analysis and the numerical simulation agreed perfect good.     

Generalized projective synchronization in time-delayed chaotic systems

We report on generalized projective synchronization between two identical time delay chaotic systems with single time delays. It overcomes some limitations of the previous work where generalized projective synchronization has been investigated only in finite-dimensional chaotic systems, so we can achieve generalized projective synchronization in infinite-dimensional chaotic systems. This method allows us to arbitrarily direct the scaling factor onto a desired value. Numerical simulations show that this method works very well.     

Synchronization of nonlinear master–slave systems under input delay and slope‐restricted input nonlinearity

This article addresses the synchronization of nonlinear master–slave systems under input time‐delay and slope‐restricted input nonlinearity. The input nonlinearity is transformed into linear time‐varying parameters belonging to a known range. Using the linear parameter varying (LPV) approach, applying the information of delay range, using the triple‐integral‐based Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional and utilizing the bounds on nonlinear dynamics of the nonlinear systems, nonlinear matrix inequalities for designing a simple delay‐range‐dependent state feedback control for synchronization of the drive and response systems is derived. The proposed controller synthesis condition is transformed into an equivalent but relatively simple criterion that can be solved through a recursive linear matrix inequality based approach by application of cone complementary linearization algorithm. In contrast to the conventional adaptive approaches, the proposed approach is simple in design and implementation and is capable to synchronize nonlinear oscillators under input delays in addition to the slope‐restricted nonlinearity. Further, time‐delays are treated using an advanced delay‐range‐dependent approach, which is adequate to synchronize nonlinear systems with either higher or lower delays. Furthermore, the resultant approach is applicable to the input nonlinearity, without using any adaptation law, owing to the utilization of LPV approach. A numerical example is worked out, demonstrating effectiveness of the proposed methodology in synchronization of two chaotic gyro systems. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Exponential stability criterion for chaos synchronization in modulated time-delayed systems

In this paper, we consider two unidirectionally coupled time delayed systems with periodic delay time modulation.

The numerical calculations greatly support our analytical results.     

Optimal autaptic and synaptic delays enhanced synchronization transitions induced by each other in Newman–Watts neuronal networks

In this paper, we numerically study the effect of electrical autaptic and synaptic delays on synchronization transitions induced by each other in Newman–Watts Hodgkin–Huxley neuronal networks. It is found that the synchronization transitions induced by synaptic delay vary with varying autaptic delay and become strongest when autaptic delay is optimal. Similarly, the synchronization transitions induced by autaptic delay vary with varying synaptic delay and become strongest at optimal synaptic delay. Also, there is optimal coupling strength by which the synchronization transitions induced by either synaptic or autaptic delay become strongest. These results show that electrical autaptic and synaptic delays can enhance synchronization transitions induced by each other in the neuronal networks. This implies that electrical autaptic and synaptic delays can cooperate with each other and more efficiently regulate the synchrony state of the neuronal networks. These findings could find potential implications for the information transmission in neural systems.

Finite-time lag synchronization of coupled reaction–diffusion systems with time-varying delay via periodically intermittent control

In this paper, the issue of finite-time lag synchronization of coupled reaction–diffusion systems with time-varying delay (CRDSTD) is considered. A periodically intermittent controller is designed such that drive system and corresponding response system can achieve finite-time lag synchronization. By using graph theory and Lyapunov method, two sufficient criteria are presented to guarantee the finite-time lag synchronization of CRDSTD. Moreover, the time of achieving lag synchronization of CRDSTD is estimated. Finally, a numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the proposed results.     

Effects of time delay and coupling strength on synchronization transitions in excitable homogeneous random network

In this paper we numerically investigate the effects of time delay and coupling strength on synchronization transitions in excitable homogeneous random network. Different roles of time delay and coupling strength have been discovered by synchronization parameter and space–time plots. Specifically, we have found three distinct parameter regions, i.e., asynchronous region (domain I for small time delay), transition region (domain II for moderate time delay) and synchronous region (domain III for large time delay) as time delay is increased. The phenomenon of multi-stability is observed in the transition region. While coupling strength can enhance synchronization in the transition region and can reduce synchronization time in the synchronous region. All these results are independence on the system size.

Further results on the impulsive synchronization of uncertain complex‐variable chaotic delayed systems

Synchronization and control of nonlinear dynamical systems with complex variables has attracted much more attention in various fields of science and engineering. In this article, we investigate the problem of impulsive synchronization for the complex‐variable delayed chaotic systems with parameters perturbation and unknown parameters in which the time delay is also included in the impulsive moment. Based on the theories of adaptive control and impulsive control, synchronization schemes are designed to make a class of complex‐variable chaotic delayed systems asymptotically synchronized, and unknown parameters are identified simultaneously in the process of synchronization. Sufficient conditions are derived to synchronize the complex‐variable chaotic systems include delayed impulses. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed schemes, several numerical examples are given. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. Complexity 21: 131–142, 2016     

On synchronization of a forced delay dynamical system via the Galerkin approximation

A forced scalar delay dynamical system is analyzed from the perspective of bifurcation and synchronization. In general first order differential equations do not exhibit chaos, but introduction of a delay feedback makes the system infinite dimensional and shows chaoticity. In order to study the dynamics of such a system, Galerkin projection technique is used to obtain a finite dimensional set of ordinary differential equations from the delay differential equation. We compare the results of simulation with those obtained from direct numerical simulation of the delay equation to ascertain the accuracy of the truncation process in the Galerkin approximation. We have considered two cases, one with five and the other with eight shape functions. Next we study two types of synchronization by considering coupling of the above derived equations with a forced dynamical system without delay. Our analysis shows that it is possible to have synchronization between two such systems. It has been shown that the chaotic system with delay feedback can drive the system without delay to achieve synchronization and the opposite case is also equally valid. This is confirmed by the evaluation of the conditional Lyapunov exponents of the systems.
