Mean-square pinning control of fractional stochastic discrete-time complex networks

Abstract

This paper considers the mean-square pinning control problem of fractional stochastic discrete-time complex networks. First, a new fractional stochastic discrete-time complex networks model with stochastic noise is established. Then, some pinning controllers and sufficient conditions are developed for the complex networks. By adopting Lyapunov energy function theory and matrix analysis theory, it proved that the synchronization of the fractional stochastic discrete-time complex networks can be achieved in a mean-square sense via pinning control. In addition, these results are extended to solve the synchronization problem of general fractional discrete-time complex networks without noise. Finally, several numerical examples are given to verify the correctness of the obtained theoretical results.
