Linear Temporal Logic for Hybrid Dynamical Systems: Characterizations and Sufficient Conditions
This paper introduces operators, semantics, characterizations, and
solution-independent conditions to guarantee temporal logic specifications for
hybrid dynamical systems. Hybrid dynamical systems are given in terms of
differential inclusions -- capturing the continuous dynamics -- and difference
inclusions -- capturing the discrete dynamics or events -- with constraints.
State trajectories (or solutions) to such systems are parameterized by a hybrid
notion of time. For such broad class of solutions, the operators and semantics
needed to reason about temporal logic are introduced. Characterizations of
temporal logic formulas in terms of dynamical properties of hybrid systems are
presented -- in particular, forward invariance and finite time attractivity.
These characterizations are exploited to formulate sufficient conditions
assuring the satisfaction of temporal logic formulas -- when possible, these
conditions do not involve solution information. Combining the results for
formulas with a single operator, ways to certify more complex formulas are
pointed out, in particular, via a decomposition using a finite state automaton.
Academic examples illustrate the results throughout the paper.Comment: 35 pages. The technical report accompanying "Linear Temporal Logic

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 can realize projective-anticipating and
projective-lag synchronization on complex dynamical networks composed by 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 find both the
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.Comment: 14 pages, 6 figure
