Abstract

This paper investigates the almost sure synchronization control problem for a class of stochastic delayed complex networks by using the stochastic differential equation theory and the Kronecker product technique. Different from the existing works, the considered problem is that all the nodes in the complex networks can synchronize with each other although the target node is unknown. Some sufficient conditions which guarantee the complex networks to have almost sure synchronization are derived and two kinds of controllers are designed, respectively. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the main results.

Highlights

  • Complex dynamical networks are composed of a family of interconnected nodes, in which each node denotes an individual element in the network and adjusts its behavior by the information received from its neighbor nodes

  • For the continuous complex networks with different characters, such as time delayed complex networks [ – ], stochastic complex networks [, ], complex networks with switching topology [ – ], there have existed a great deal of papers to study the synchronization control problem

  • The contributions of our paper are as follows. (i) The almost sure synchronization control other than synchronization in mean square is investigated. (ii) The provided results can suit for the synchronization of complex networks with the target node unknown. (iii) The obtained results only depend on the complex network’s parameters

Summary

Introduction

Complex dynamical networks are composed of a family of interconnected nodes, in which each node denotes an individual element in the network and adjusts its behavior by the information received from its neighbor nodes. There exists much literature such as [ – ] studying the synchronization control problem of complex networks by using different methods. It is necessary to analyze the synchronization control problem of complex networks with unknown target node.
