Chaos synchronization between two different fractional-order hyperchaotic systems

This work investigates chaos synchronization between two different fractional-order hyperchaotic system (FOHS)s. A novel FOHS is also proposed in this paper. The Chen FOHS is controlled to be a new FOHS and the Lü FOHS, respectively. The analytical conditions for the synchronization of these pairs of different FOHSs are derived by utilizing Laplace transform. Furthermore, synchronization between two different FOHSs is achieved by utilizing feedback control method in a quite short period and both remain in chaotic states. Numerical simulations are used to verify the theoretical analysis using different values of the fractional-order parameter.

Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, a new adaptive controller with parameter update law is designed to synchronize these two hyperchaotic systems asymptotically and globally. Numerical simulations are presented to verify the effectiveness of the synchronization scheme.     

Chaos synchronization between two different chaotic systems with uncertainties, external disturbances, unknown parameters and input nonlinearities

In this paper, the problem of chaos synchronization between two different uncertain chaotic systems with input nonlinearities is investigated. Both master and slave systems are perturbed by model uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. The bounds of the model uncertainties and external disturbances are assumed to be unknown in advance. First, a simple linear sliding surface is selected. Then, appropriate adaptive laws are derived to tackle the model uncertainties, external disturbances and unknown parameters. Subsequently, based on the adaptive laws and Lyapunov stability theory, a robust adaptive sliding mode control law is designed to guarantee the existence of the sliding motion. Two illustrative examples are presented to verify the usefulness and applicability of the proposed technique.

Finally, a numerical example is provided to illustrate the use of the main results.

This technique is applied to achieve chaos control for each of the dynamical systems Lorenz, Chen and Lü systems. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, control laws are derived. We used the same technique to enable stabilization of chaotic motion to a steady state as well as tracking of any desired trajectory to be achieved in a systematic way. Numerical simulations are shown to verify the results.

Finally, numerical results are studied for a Quantum-CNN oscillators synchronized with a Rössler system in three different cases.

Dual synchronization based on two different chaotic systems: Lorenz systems and Rössler systems

In this paper, we improve and extend the works of Liu and Davids [Dual synchronization of chaos, Phys. Rev. E 61 (2000) 2176–2179] which only introduce the dual synchronization of 1-D discrete chaotic systems. The dual synchronization of two different 3-D continuous chaotic systems, Lorenz systems and Rössler systems, is discussed. And a sufficient condition of dual synchronization about the two different chaotic systems is obtained. Theories and numerical simulations show the possibility of dual synchronization and the effectiveness of the method.     

Global finite-time synchronization of different dimensional chaotic systems

This paper addresses the problem of global finite-time synchronization of two different dimensional chaotic systems. Firstly, the definition of global finite-time synchronization of different dimensional chaotic systems are introduced. Based on the finite-time stability methods, the controller is designed such that the chaotic systems are globally synchronized in a finite time. Then, some uncertain parameters are adopted in the chaotic systems, new control law and dynamical parameter estimation are proposed to guarantee that the global finite-time synchronization can be obtained. By considering a dynamical parameter designed in the controller, the adaptive updated controller is also designed to achieve the desired results. At last, the results of two different dimensional chaotic systems are also extended to two different dimensional networked chaotic systems. Finally, three numerical examples are given to verify the validity of the proposed methods.     

Chaos control of Chen chaotic dynamical system

This paper is devoted to study the problem of controlling chaos in Chen chaotic dynamical system. Two different methods of control, feedback and nonfeedback methods are used to suppress chaos to unstable equilibria or unstable periodic orbits (UPO). The Lyapunov direct method and Routh–Hurwitz criteria are used to study the conditions of the asymptotic stability of the steady states of the controlled system. Numerical simulations are presented to show these results.

Based on the modified system approach the generalized synchronization (GS) in two bidirectionally coupled discrete dynamical systems is classified into several types, and under some conditions, the existence, Lipschitz smoothness and Hölder continuity of two kinds of GS therein are derived and theoretically proved. In addition, numerical simulations validate the present theory.     

Finite-time synchronization of two different chaotic systems with unknown parameters via sliding mode technique

In this paper, the problem of finite-time chaos synchronization between two different chaotic systems with fully unknown parameters is investigated. First, a new nonsingular terminal sliding surface is introduced and its finite-time convergence to the zero equilibrium is proved. Then, appropriate adaptive laws are derived to tackle the unknown parameters of the systems. Afterwards, based on the adaptive laws and finite-time control idea, an adaptive sliding mode controller is proposed to ensure the occurrence of the sliding motion in a given finite time. It is mathematically proved that the introduced sliding mode technique has finite-time convergence and stability in both reaching and sliding mode phases. Finally, some numerical simulations are presented to demonstrate the applicability and effectiveness of the proposed technique.     

Adaptive scheme for time-varying anticipating synchronization of certain or uncertain chaotic dynamical systems

In this paper, a new type of anticipating synchronization, called time-varying anticipating synchronization, is defined firstly. Then novel adaptive schemes for time-varying anticipating synchronization of certain or uncertain chaotic dynamical systems are designed based on the Lyapunov function and invariance principle. The update gain of coupling strength can be automatically adapted to a suitable strength depending on the initial values and can be properly chosen to adjust the speed of achieving synchronization, so these schemes are analytical and simple to implement in practice. A classical chaotic dynamical system is used to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed adaptive schemes with or without parameter uncertainties.     

Complex dynamics and synchronization in two non-identical chaotic ecological systems

Synchronization is a natural phenomenon in non-linear dynamical systems. The relative importance of various mechanisms of population synchrony has been debated by population ecologists. The debate revolves around the issue whether the regionally extrinsic or locally intrinsic agents are more potent. In the present paper, we have attempted to demonstrate that a local intrinsic mechanism, predation, can be more common cause of population synchrony than is believed. Two chaotic food chains having different kinds of top-predators are synchronized using a recently proposed algorithm by Lu and Cao [Lu J, Cao J. Adaptive complete synchronization of two identical or different chaotic (hyperchaotic) dynamical systems with fully unknown parameters. Chaos 2005;15(043901):1–10]. The idiosyncracy of this approach is that it takes care of the uncertainties involved in the parameter estimation. The complete synchronization achieved is robust to noise present in the system. We suggest that local intrinsic causes of population synchrony should be given more attention.     

Adaptive synchronization of two chaotic systems with stochastic unknown parameters

Using the Lyapunov stability theory an adaptive control is proposed for chaos synchronization between two different systems which have stochastically time varying unknown coefficients. The stochastic variations of the coefficients about their unknown mean values are modeled through white Gaussian noise produced by the Weiner process. It is shown that using the proposed adaptive control the mean square of synchronization error converges to an arbitrarily small bound around zero. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed technique, it is applied to the Lorenz–Chen and the Chen–Rossler dynamical systems, as some case studies. Simulation results indicate that the proposed adaptive controller has a high performance in synchronization of chaotic systems in noisy environment.     

Projective synchronization of different fractional-order chaotic systems with non-identical orders

This paper investigates the projective synchronization (PS) of different fractional order chaotic systems while the derivative orders of the states in drive and response systems are unequal. Based on some essential properties on fractional calculus and the stability theorems of fractional-order systems, we propose a general method to achieve the PS in such cases. The fractional operators are introduced into the controller to transform the problem into synchronization problem between chaotic systems with identical orders, and the nonlinear feedback controller is proposed based on the concept of active control technique. The method is both theoretically rigorous and practically feasible. We present two examples that illustrate the effectiveness and applications of the method, which include the PS between two 3-D commensurate fractional-order chaotic systems and the PS between two 4-D fractional-order hyperchaotic systems with incommensurate and commensurate orders, respectively. Abundant numerical simulations are given which agree well with the analytical results. Our investigations show that PS can also be achieved between different chaotic systems with non-identical orders. We have further reviewed and compared some relevant methods on this topic reported in several recent papers. A discussion on the physical implementation of the proposed method is also presented in this paper.     

On analytical justification of phase synchronization in different chaotic systems

In analytical or numerical synchronizations studies of coupled chaotic systems the phase synchronizations have less considered in the leading literatures. This article is an attempt to find a sufficient analytical condition for stability of phase synchronization in some coupled chaotic systems. The method of nonlinear feedback function and the scheme of matrix measure have been used to justify this analytical stability, and tested numerically for the existence of the phase synchronization in some coupled chaotic systems.
