Complete synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators with finite inertia

We present an approach based on Gronwall’s inequalities for the asymptotic complete phase-frequency synchronization of Kuramoto oscillators with finite inertia. For given finite inertia and coupling strength, we present admissible classes of initial configurations and natural frequency distributions, which lead to the complete phase-frequency synchronization asymptotically. For this, we explicitly identify invariant regions for the Kuramoto flow, and derive second-order Gronwall’s inequalities for the evolution of phase and frequency diameters. Our detailed time-decay estimates for phase and frequency diameters are independent of the number of oscillators. We also compare our analytical results with numerical simulations.     

Synchronization of complex community networks with nonidentical nodes and adaptive coupling strength

In this Letter, the complex dynamical networks with community structure and nonidentical nodes are considered. The globally asymptotical synchronization of the time-delayed complex community networks onto any uniformly smooth state is studied. Some simple and useful criteria are derived by constructing an effective control scheme and adjusting automatically the adaptive coupling strength. Finally, the developed techniques are applied to two complex community networks which are respectively synchronized to a chaotic trajectory and a periodic orbit, and numerical simulations are provided to show the feasibility of the developed methods.     

The impact of competing time delays in coupled stochastic systems

We study the impact of competing time delays in coupled stochastic synchronization and coordination problems. We consider two types of delays: transmission delays between interacting elements and processing, cognitive, or execution delays at each element. We establish the scaling theory for the phase boundary of synchronization and for the steady-state fluctuations in the synchronizable regime. Further, we provide the asymptotic behavior near the boundary of the synchronizable regime. Our results also imply the potential for optimization and trade-offs in synchronization problems with time delays.     

Projective synchronization between different fractional‐order hyperchaotic systems with uncertain parameters using proposed modified adaptive projective synchronization technique

In the present article, the authors have proposed a modified projective adaptive synchronization technique for fractional‐order chaotic systems. The adaptive projective synchronization controller and identification parameters law are developed on the basis of Lyapunov direct stability theory. The proposed method is successfully applied for the projective synchronization between fractional‐order hyperchaotic Lü system as drive system and fractional‐order hyperchaotic Lorenz chaotic system as response system. A comparison between the effects on synchronization time due to the presence of fractional‐order time derivatives for modified projective synchronization method and proposed modified adaptive projective synchronization technique is the key feature of the present article. Numerical simulation results, which are carried out using Adams–Boshforth–Moulton method show that the proposed technique is effective, convenient and also faster for projective synchronization of fractional‐order nonlinear dynamical systems.

On the fractional-order extended Kalman filter and its application to chaotic cryptography in noisy environment

In this paper via a novel method of discretized continuous-time Kalman filter, the problem of synchronization and cryptography in fractional-order systems has been investigated in presence of noisy environment for process and output signals. The fractional-order Kalman filter equation, applicable for linear systems, and its extension called the extended Kalman filter, which can be used for nonlinear systems, are derived. The result is utilized for chaos synchronization with the aim of cryptography while the transmitter system is fractional-order, and both the transmitter and transmission channel are noisy. The fractional-order stochastic chaotic Chen system is then presented to apply the proposed method for chaotic signal cryptography. The results show the effectiveness of the proposed method.     

Some criteria for the global finite-time synchronization of two Lorenz–Stenflo systems coupled by a new controller

This paper investigates the global finite-time synchronization of two chaotic Lorenz–Stenflo systems coupled by a new controller called the generalized variable substitution controller. First of all, the generalized variable substitution controller is designed to establish the master–slave finite-time synchronization scheme for the Lorenz–Stenflo systems. And then, based on the finite-time stability theory, a sufficient criterion on the finite-time synchronization of this scheme is rigorously verified in the form of matrix and the corresponding estimation for the synchronization time is analytically given. Applying this criterion, some sufficient finite-time synchronization criteria under various generalized variable substitution controllers are further derived in the algebraic form. Finally, some numerical examples are introduced to compare the results proposed in this paper with those proposed in the existing literature, verifying the effectiveness of the criteria obtained.     

On the global exponential stability of impulsive functional differential equations with infinite delays or finite delays

This paper considers the impulsive functional differential equations with infinite delays or finite delays. Some new sufficient conditions are obtained to guarantee the global exponential stability by employing the improved Razumikhin technique and Lyapunov functions. The result extends and improves some recent works. Moreover, the obtained Razumikhin condition is very simple and effective to implement in real problems and it is helpful to investigate the stability of delayed neural networks and synchronization problems of chaotic systems under impulsive perturbation. Finally, a numerical example and its simulation is given to show the effectiveness of the obtained result in this paper.     

Modulation of synchronization dynamics in a network of self-sustained systems

This paper addresses the combined modulatory effects of non-nearest neighbor oscillators and local injection on synchronized states dynamics with their corresponding stability boundaries in a network of self-sustained systems. The Whittaker method and Floquet theory are used to predict analytically the stability of these states for identical and non-identical coupling parameters. Charts revealing the modulation of synchronized states and their stability boundaries at the second order of interaction in the cases of identical and non-identical coupling parameters are constructed with and without an external signal locally injected in the network. Numerical simulations validate and complement the results of analytical surveys. The limits of the stability regions are numerically explored when a small amount of Gaussian white noise is also injected in the network.
