An explicit criterion for finite-time stability of linear nonautonomous systems with delays

In this paper, the problem of finite-time stability of linear nonautonomous systems with time-varying delays is considered. Using a novel approach based on some techniques developed for linear positive systems, we derive new explicit conditions in terms of matrix inequalities ensuring that the state trajectories of the system do not exceed a certain threshold over a pre-specified finite time interval. These conditions are shown to be relaxed for the Lyapunov asymptotic stability. A numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained result.

On the stability of contact discontinuity for Cauchy problem of compress Navier-Stokes equations with general initial data

In this paper,we study the stability of solutions of the Cauchy problem for 1-D compressible NarvierStokes equations with general initial data.The asymptotic limit of solution is found,under some conditions.The results in this paper imply the case that the limit function of solution as t →∞ is a viscous contact wave in the sense,which approximates the contact discontinuity on any finite-time interval as the heat conduction coefficients toward zero.As a by-product,the decay rates of the solution for the fast diffusion equations are also obtained.The proofs are based on the elementary energy method and the study of asymptotic behavior of the solution to the fast diffusion equation.     

Finite-time singularity formation at a magnetic neutral line in Hall magnetohydrodynamics

The formation of a current sheet in a weakly collisional plasma can be modelled as a finite-time singularity solution of magnetohydrodynamic equations. We use an exact self-similar solution to confirm and generalise a previous finding that, in sharp contrast to two-dimensional solutions in standard MHD, a finite-time collapse to a current sheet can occur in Hall MHD. We derive a criterion for the finite-time singularity in terms of initial conditions, and we use an intermediate asymptotic solution for the evolution of an axial magnetic field to obtain a general expression for the singularity formation time. We illustrate the analytical results by numerical solutions.     

Estimates for the finite-time ruin probability with insurance and financial risks

The paper gives estimates for the finite-time ruin probability with insurance and financial risks. When the distribution of the insurance risk belongs to the class L(??) for some ?? > 0 or the subexponential distribution class, we abtain some asymptotic equivalent relationships for the finite-time ruin probability, respectively. When the distribution of the insurance risk belongs to the dominated varying-tailed distribution class, we obtain asymptotic upper bound and lower bound for the finite-time ruin probability, where for the asymptotic upper bound, we completely get rid of the restriction of mutual independence on insurance risks, and for the lower bound, we only need the insurance risks to have a weak positive association structure. The obtained results extend and improve some existing results.     

复杂动态网络的有限时间同步

复杂网络无处不在,同步是自然界中广泛存在的一类非常重要的非线性现象.过去10年,人们对复杂网络的同步开展了系统而深入的研究,包括恒等同步、广义同步、簇同步以及部分同步等.上述大部分结果中对同步速度的刻画往往是渐进的,只有当时间趋于无穷的时候,网络才能实现同步,而对于网络能够在多长时间内可以实现同步却知之甚少.作者以几类典型的非线性耦合的复杂动态网络为例,深入探讨了复杂动态网络的有限时间同步的规律.具体而言,基于上述几类典型的复杂动态网络,证明了在某些合适的条件下,网络能够在有限时间内实现精确同步.此外,用一个典型的数值仿真实例验证了上述有限时间同步的准则.有限时间同步有效地避免了网络只有在无穷时刻才能实现同步的问题,对网络同步的实际工程应用具有基本的现实意义.

Finite-time chaos synchronization of unified chaotic system with uncertain parameters

This paper deals with the finite-time chaos synchronization of the unified chaotic system with uncertain parameters. Based on the finite-time stability theory, a control law is proposed to realize finite-time chaos synchronization for the unified chaotic system with uncertain parameters. The controller is simple, robust and only part parameters are required to be bounded. Simulation results for the Lorenz, Lü and Chen chaotic systems are presented to validate the design and the analysis.     

Finite-time stabilization of nonlinear impulsive dynamical systems

Finite-time stability involves dynamical systems whose trajectories converge to a Lyapunov stable equilibrium state in finite time. For continuous-time dynamical systems finite-time convergence implies nonuniqueness of system solutions in reverse time, and hence, such systems possess non-Lipschitzian dynamics. For impulsive dynamical systems, however, it may be possible to reset the system states to an equilibrium state achieving finite-time convergence without requiring non-Lipschitzian system dynamics. In this paper, we develop sufficient conditions for finite-time stability of impulsive dynamical systems using both scalar and vector Lyapunov functions. Furthermore, we design hybrid finite-time stabilizing controllers for impulsive dynamical systems that are robust against full modelling uncertainty. Finally, we present a numerical example for finite-time stabilization of large-scale impulsive dynamical systems.     

Finite-time stabilization for hyper-chaotic Lorenz system families via adaptive control

This paper is concerned with finite-time stabilization of hyper-chaotic Lorenz system families. Based on the finite-time stability theory, a novel adaptive control technique is presented to achieve finite-time stabilization for hyper-chaotic system. The controller is simple and easy to be implemented, and can stabilize almost all well known high-dimensional chaotic systems. Simulation results for hyper-chaotic Lorenz system, Chua’s oscillator, Rössler system are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.     

Exponential stability of equidistant Euler–Maruyama approximations of stochastic differential delay equations

Our aim is to study under what conditions the exact and numerical solution (based on equidistant nonrandom partitions of integration time-intervals) to a stochastic differential delay equation (SDDE) share the property of mean-square exponential stability. Our approach is trying to avoid the use of Lyapunov functions or functionals. We show that under a global Lipschitz assumption an SDDE is exponentially stable in mean square if and only if for some sufficiently small stepsize Δ$\Delta$ the Euler–Maruyama (EM) method is exponentially stable in mean square. We then replace the global Lipschitz condition with a finite-time convergence condition and establish the same “if and only if” result. The important feature of this result is that it transfers the asymptotic problem into a finite-time convergence problem. Replacing the exact and EM numerical solution with stochastic processes, we also discuss whether a family of stochastic processes share the stability property. This new approach allows us to discuss (i) whether a family of SDDEs share the stability property, and (ii) whether an SDDE with variable time lag shares stability property with the modified EM method. As another application of this general approach we consider a linear SDDE with variable time lag and establish an “if and only if” result. It should also be mentioned that the questions addressed, results proved, as well as style of analysis borrow heavily from [14] but the computations involved to cope with time delay are nontrivial.

Finite-time stability and stabilization of nonlinear stochastic hybrid systems

This paper deals with the problem of finite-time stability and stabilization of nonlinear Markovian switching stochastic systems which exist impulses at the switching instants. Using multiple Lyapunov function theory, a sufficient condition is established for finite-time stability of the underlying systems. Furthermore, based on the state partition of continuous parts of systems, a feedback controller is designed such that the corresponding impulsive stochastic closed-loop systems are finite-time stochastically stable. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Finite-time uniform stability of functional differential equations with applications in network synchronization control

In this paper, we investigate finite-time uniform stability of functional differential equations with applications in network synchronization control. First, a Razumikhin-type theorem is derived to ensure finite-time uniform stability of functional differential equations. Based on the theoretical results, finite-time uniform synchronization is proposed for a class of delayed neural networks and delayed complex dynamical networks by designing nontrivial and simple control strategies and some novel criteria are established. Especially, a feasible region of the control parameters for each neuron is derived for the realization of finite-time uniform synchronization of the addressed neural networks, which provide a great convenience for the application of the theoretical results. Finally, two numerical examples with numerical simulations are provided to show the effectiveness and feasibility of the theoretical results.     

On the ruin probability in a dependent discrete time risk model with insurance and financial risks

This paper considers the discrete-time risk model with insurance risk and financial risk in some dependence structures. Under assumptions that the insurance risks are heavy tailed (belong to the intersection of the long-tailed class and the dominatedly varying-tailed class) and the financial risks satisfy some moment conditions, the asymptotic and uniformly asymptotic relations for the finite-time and ultimate ruin probabilities are derived.     

Ruin probabilities with insurance and financial risks having an FGM dependence structure

We consider a discrete-time risk model,in which insurance risks and financial risks jointly follow a multivariate Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern distribution,and the insurance risks are regularly varying tailed.Explicit asymptotic formulae are obtained for finite-time and infinite-time ruin probabilities.Some numerical results are also presented to illustrate the accuracy of our asymptotic formulae.     

Observer-based finite-time control of time-delayed jump systems

This paper provides the observer-based finite-time control problem of time-delayed Markov jump systems that possess randomly jumping parameters. The transition of the jumping parameters is governed by a finite-state Markov process. The observer-based finite-time H_∞ controller via state feedback is proposed to guarantee the stochastic finite-time boundedness and stochastic finite-time stabilization of the resulting closed-loop system for all admissible disturbances and unknown time-delays. Based on stochastic finite-time stability analysis, sufficient conditions that ensure stochastic robust control performance of time-delay jump systems are derived. The control criterion is formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities and the designed finite-time stabilization controller is described as an optimization one. The presented results are extended to time-varying delayed MJSs. Simulation results illustrate the effectiveness of the developed approaches.
