Abstract

In this article, the exponential stability problem for fractional-order complex multi-links networks with aperiodically intermittent control is considered. Using the graph theory and Lyapunov method, two theorems, including a Lyapunov-type theorem and a coefficient-type theorem, are given to ensure the exponential stability of the underlying networks. The theoretical results show that the exponential convergence rate is dependent on the control gain and the order of fractional derivative. To be specific, the larger control gain, the higher the exponential convergence rate. Meanwhile, when aperiodically intermittent control degenerates into periodically intermittent control, a corollary is also provided to ensure the exponential stability of the underlying networks. Furthermore, to show the practicality of theoretical results, as an application, the exponential stability of fractional-order multi-links competitive neural networks with aperiodically intermittent control is investigated and a stability criterion is established. Finally, the effectiveness and feasibility of the theoretical results are demonstrated through a numerical example.
