Adaptive Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks with State Predictor
This paper addresses the adaptive synchronization of complex dynamical networks with nonlinear dynamics. Based on the Lyapunov method, it is shown that the network can synchronize to the synchronous state by introducing local adaptive strategy to the coupling strengths. Moreover, it is also proved that the convergence speed of complex dynamical networks can be increased via designing a state predictor. Finally, some numerical simulations are worked out to illustrate the analytical results
Adaptive Exponential Synchronization of Coupled Complex Networks on General Graphs
We investigate the synchronization in complex dynamical networks, where the coupling configuration corresponds to a weighted graph. An adaptive synchronization method on general coupling configuration graphs is given. The networks may synchronize at an arbitrarily given exponential rate by enhancing the updated law of the variable coupling strength and achieve synchronization more quickly by adding edges to original graphs. Finally, numerical simulations are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of our theoretical results
Adaptive Synchronization via State Predictor on General Complex Dynamic Networks
This paper considers the adaptive synchronization of general complex dynamic networks via state predictor based on the fixed topology for nonlinear dynamical systems. Using Lyapunov stability properties, it is proved that the complex dynamical networks with state predictor are asymptotically stable. Moreover, it is also shown that the rate of convergence of complex dynamical networks with state predictor is faster than the complex dynamical networks without state predictor
Exponential Synchronization of Two Nonlinearly Coupled Complex Networks with Time-Varying Delayed Dynamical Nodes
This paper investigates the exponential synchronization between two nonlinearly coupled complex networks with time-varying delay dynamical nodes. Based on the Lyapunov stability theory, some criteria for the exponential synchronization are derived with adaptive control method. Moreover, the presented results here can also be applied to complex dynamical networks with single time delay case. Finally, numerical analysis and simulations for two nonlinearly coupled networks which are composed of the time-delayed Lorenz chaotic systems are given to demonstrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed complex network synchronization scheme
Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks via Event-Triggered Pinning Impulses
This article studies the synchronization problem of complex dynamical
networks. The impulsive control method is considered with a novel
event-triggered pinning algorithm. Sufficient conditions on the network
topology are obtained to ensure network synchronization. It is shown that
synchronization can be realized with a careful selection of the pinning nodes.
Furthermore, an adaptive coupling strength is incorporated into the network to
allow network synchronization with an arbitrary selection of the pinning nodes.
An example of a network with node dynamics described by the Chen system is
studied to demonstrate the theoretical results
Synchronization of General Complex Networks with Hybrid Couplings and Unknown Perturbations
The issue of synchronization for a class of hybrid coupled complex networks with mixed delays (discrete delays and distributed delays) and unknown nonstochastic external perturbations is studied. The perturbations do not disappear even after all the dynamical nodes have reached synchronization. To overcome the bad effects of such perturbations, a simple but all-powerful robust adaptive controller is designed to synchronize the complex networks even without knowing a priori the functions and bounds of the perturbations. Based on Lyapunov stability theory, integral inequality Barbalat lemma, and Schur Complement lemma, rigorous proofs are given for synchronization of the complex networks. Numerical simulations verify the effectiveness of the new robust adaptive controller
Synchronization in an array of linearly stochastically coupled networks with time delays
This is the post print version of the article. The official published version can be obtained from the link - Copyright 2007 Elsevier LtdIn this paper, the complete synchronization problem is investigated in an array of linearly stochastically coupled identical networks with time delays. The stochastic coupling term, which can reflect a more realistic dynamical behavior of coupled systems in practice, is introduced to model a coupled system, and the influence from the stochastic noises on the array of coupled delayed neural networks is studied thoroughly. Based on a simple adaptive feedback control scheme and some stochastic analysis techniques, several sufficient conditions are developed to guarantee the synchronization in an array of linearly stochastically coupled neural networks with time delays. Finally, an illustrate example with numerical simulations is exploited to show the effectiveness of the theoretical results.This work was jointly supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China under Grant 60574043, the Royal Society of the United Kingdom, the Natural Science Foundation of Jiangsu Province of China under Grant BK2006093, and International Joint Project funded by NSFC and the Royal Society of the United Kingdom
Concurrent enhancement of percolation and synchronization in adaptive networks
Co-evolutionary adaptive mechanisms are not only ubiquitous in nature, but
also beneficial for the functioning of a variety of systems. We here consider
an adaptive network of oscillators with a stochastic, fitness-based, rule of
connectivity, and show that it self-organizes from fragmented and incoherent
states to connected and synchronized ones. The synchronization and percolation
are associated to abrupt transitions, and they are concurrently (and
significantly) enhanced as compared to the non-adaptive case. Finally we
provide evidence that only partial adaptation is sufficient to determine these
enhancements. Our study, therefore, indicates that inclusion of simple adaptive
mechanisms can efficiently describe some emergent features of networked
systems' collective behaviors, and suggests also self-organized ways to control
synchronization and percolation in natural and social systems.Comment: Published in Scientific Report
