The impulsive control synchronization of the drive-response complex system

This Letter investigates projective synchronization between the drive system and response complex dynamical system. An impulsive control scheme is adapted to synchronize the drive-response dynamical system to a desired scalar factor. By using the stability theory of the impulsive differential equation, the criteria for the projective synchronization are derived. The feasibility of the impulsive control of the projective synchronization is demonstrated in the drive-response dynamical system.     

Cluster synchronization in fractional-order complex dynamical networks

Cluster synchronization of complex dynamical networks with fractional-order dynamical nodes is discussed in the Letter. By using the stability theory of fractional-order differential system and linear pinning control, a sufficient condition for the stability of the synchronization behavior in complex networks with fractional order dynamics is derived. Only the nodes in one community which have direct connections to the nodes in other communities are needed to be controlled, resulting in reduced control cost. A numerical example is presented to demonstrate the validity and feasibility of the obtained result. Numerical simulations illustrate that cluster synchronization performance for fractional-order complex dynamical networks is influenced by inner-coupling matrix, control gain, coupling strength and topological structures of the networks.

Adaptive cluster synchronization in complex dynamical networks

Cluster synchronization is investigated in different complex dynamical networks. In this Letter, a novel adaptive strategy is proposed to make a complex dynamical network achieve cluster synchronization, where the adaptive strategy of one edge is adjusted only according to its local information. A sufficient condition about the global stability arbitrarily grouped of cluster synchronization is derived. Several numerical simulations show the effectiveness of the adaptive strategy.     

Synchronization criterion for Lur'e type complex dynamical networks with time-varying delay

In this Letter, the synchronization problem for a class of complex dynamical networks in which every identical node is a Lur'e system with time-varying delay is considered. A delay-dependent synchronization criterion is derived for the synchronization of complex dynamical network that represented by Lur'e system with sector restricted nonlinearities. The derived criterion is a sufficient condition for absolute stability of error dynamics between the each nodes and the isolated node. Using a convex representation of the nonlinearity for error dynamics, the stability condition based on the discretized Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional is obtained via LMI formulation. The proposed delay-dependent synchronization criterion is less conservative than the existing ones. The effectiveness of our work is verified through numerical examples.     

Global synchronization for a class of dynamical complex networks

This paper is concerned with the problem of global synchronization for a class of dynamical complex networks composed of general Lur’e systems. Based on the absolute stability theory and the Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov (KYP) lemma, sufficient conditions are established to guarantee global synchronization of dynamical networks with complex topology, directed and weighted couplings. Several global synchronization criteria formulated in the form of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) or frequency-domain inequalities are also proposed for undirected dynamical networks. In order to obtain global results, no linearization technique is involved through derivation of the synchronization criteria. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed results.     

Projective-anticipating, projective, and projective-lag synchronization of time-delayed chaotic systems on random networks

We study projective-anticipating, projective, and projective-lag synchronization of time-delayed chaotic systems on random networks. We relax some limitations of previous work, where projective-anticipating and projective-lag synchronization can be achieved only on two coupled chaotic systems. In this paper, we realize projective-anticipating and projective-lag synchronization on complex dynamical networks composed of a large number of interconnected components. At the same time, although previous work studied projective synchronization on complex dynamical networks, the dynamics of the nodes are coupled partially linear chaotic systems. In this paper, the dynamics of the nodes of the complex networks are time-delayed chaotic systems without the limitation of the partial linearity. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, we suggest a generic method to achieve the projective-anticipating, projective, and projective-lag synchronization of time-delayed chaotic systems on random dynamical networks, and we find both its existence and sufficient stability conditions. The validity of the proposed method is demonstrated and verified by examining specific examples using Ikeda and Mackey-Glass systems on Erdos-Renyi networks.     

Function projective synchronization in drive-response dynamical network

In this Letter, the function projective synchronization in the drive-response dynamical network is investigated, where the response dynamical network is affected not only by the drive system, but also coupled via a linearly feedback scheme. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, it is shown that the function projective synchronization with desired scaling function can be realized in the drive-response dynamical network by a simple control law. Moreover it is no need for the scaling function to be differentiable, bounded and nonzero all the time. The numerical simulations are provided to verify the theoretical result.     

Adaptive Synchronization of Fractional Order Complex-Variable Dynamical Networks via Pinning Control

In this paper, the synchronization of fractional order complex-variable dynamical networks is studied using an adaptive pinning control strategy based on close center degree. Some effective criteria for global synchronization of fractional order complex-variable dynamical networks are derived based on the Lyapunov stability theory. From the theoretical analysis, one concludes that under appropriate conditions, the complex-variable dynamical networks can realize the global synchronization by using the proper adaptive pinning control method. Meanwhile, we succeed in solving the problem about how much coupling strength should be applied to ensure the synchronization of the fractional order complex networks. Therefore, compared with the existing results, the synchronization method in this paper is more general and convenient. This result extends the synchronization condition of the real-variable dynamical networks to the complex-valued field, which makes our research more practical. Finally, two simulation examples show that the derived theoretical results are valid and the proposed adaptive pinning method is effective.     

Stochastic synchronization for time-varying complex dynamical networks

This paper studies the stochastic synchronization problem for time-varying complex dynamical networks. This model is totally different from some existing network models. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, inequality techniques, and the properties of the Weiner process, some controllers and adaptive laws are designed to ensure achieving stochastic synchronization of a complex dynamical network model. A sufficient synchronization condition is given to ensure that the proposed network model is mean-square stable. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulation fully verify the main results.

On <Emphasis Type="Bold">Λ</Emphasis> −<Emphasis Type="Bold">ϕ</Emphasis> generalized synchronization of chaotic dynamical systems in continuous–time

In this paper, a new type of chaos synchronization in continuous-time is proposed by combining inverse matrix projective synchronization (IMPS) and generalized synchronization (GS). This new chaos synchronization type allows us to study synchronization between different dimensional continuous-time chaotic systems in different dimensions. Based on stability property of integer-order linear continuous-time dynamical systems and Lyapunov stability theory, effective control schemes are introduced and new synchronization criterions are derived. Numerical simulations are used to validate the theoretical results and to verify the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.     

Synchronization in complex delayed dynamical networks with impulsive effects

The present paper is mainly concerned with the issues of synchronization dynamics of complex delayed dynamical networks with impulsive effects. A general model of complex delayed dynamical networks with impulsive effects is formulated, which can well describe practical architectures of more realistic complex networks related to impulsive effects. Based on impulsive stability theory on delayed dynamical systems, some simple but less conservative criterion are derived for global synchronization of such dynamical network. It is shown that synchronization of the networks is heavily dependent on impulsive effects of connecting configuration in the networks. Furthermore, the theoretical results are applied to a typical SF network composing of impulsive coupled chaotic delayed Hopfield neural network nodes, and are also illustrated by numerical simulations.     

Desynchronization by phase slip patterns in networks of pulse-coupled oscillators with delays

Coupling delays may cause drastic changes in the dynamics of oscillatory networks. In the present paper we investigate how coupling delays alter synchronization processes in networks of all-to-all coupled pulse oscillators. We derive an analytic criterion for the stability of synchrony and study the synchronization areas in the space of the delay and coupling strength. Specific attention is paid to the scenario of destabilization on the borders of the synchronization area. We show that in bifurcation points the system possesses homoclinic loops, which give rise to complex long- or quasi-periodic solutions. These newly born solutions are characterized by a synchronous group, from which an oscillator periodically escapes, laps one period, and rejoins. We call such a dynamical regime “phase slip patterns”.     

Outer synchronization between two different fractional-order general complex dynamical networks

Outer synchronization between two different fractional-order general complex dynamical networks is investigated in this paper.Based on the stability theory of the fractional-order system,the sufficient criteria for outer synchronization are derived analytically by applying the nonlinear control and the bidirectional coupling methods.The proposed synchronization method is applicable to almost all kinds of coupled fractional-order general complex dynamical networks.Neither a symmetric nor irreducible coupling configuration matrix is required.In addition,no constraint is imposed on the inner-coupling matrix.Numerical examples are also provided to demonstrate the validity of the presented synchronization scheme.Numeric evidence shows that both the feedback strength k and the fractional order α can be chosen appropriately to adjust the synchronization effect effectively.     

Robust adaptive synchronization of general dynamical networks with multiple delays and uncertainties

In this article, a general complex dynamical network which contains multiple delays and uncertainties is introduced, which contains time-varying coupling delays, time-varying node delay, and uncertainties of both the inner- and outer-coupling matrices. A robust adaptive synchronization scheme for these general complex networks with multiple delays and uncertainties is established and raised by employing the robust adaptive control principle and the Lyapunov stability theory. We choose some suitable adaptive synchronization controllers to ensure the robust synchronization of this dynamical network. The numerical simulations of the time-delay Lorenz chaotic system as local dynamical node are provided to observe and verify the viability and productivity of the theoretical research in this paper. Compared to the achievement of previous research, the research in this paper seems quite comprehensive and universal.     

Robust projective lag synchronization in drive-response dynamical networks via adaptive control

This paper investigates the problem of projective lag synchronization behavior in drive-response dynamical networks (DRDNs) with identical and non-identical nodes. An adaptive control method is designed to achieve projective lag synchronization with fully unknown parameters and unknown bounded disturbances. These parameters were estimated by adaptive laws obtained by Lyapunov stability theory. Furthermore, sufficient conditions for synchronization are derived analytically using the Lyapunov stability theory and adaptive control. In addition, the unknown bounded disturbances are also overcome by the proposed control. Finally, analytical results show that the states of the dynamical network with non-delayed coupling can be asymptotically synchronized onto a desired scaling factor under the designed controller. Simulation results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Finite-Time Generalized Outer Synchronization Between Two Different Complex Networks

This paper investigates the finite-time generalized outer synchronization between two complex dynamical networks with different dynamical behaviors. The two networks can be undirected or directed, and they may also contain isolated nodes and clusters. By using suitable controllers, sufficient conditions for finite-time generalized outer synchronization are derived based on the finite-time stability theory. Finally, numerical examples are examined to illustrate the effectiveness of the analytical results. The effect of control parameters on the synchronization time is also numerically demonstrated.
