Passivity Analysis and Complete Synchronization of Fractional Order for Both Delayed and Non-Delayed Complex Dynamical Networks with Couplings in the Derivative

Abstract

This manuscript explores the analysis of passivity and synchronization criteria for a complex fractional-order dynamical network model with derivative couplings and time-varying delays. The passivity problem of the proposed network model is deduced using various inequality methods and presented as a linear matrix inequality. To ensure complete synchronization for a fractional-order complex dynamical network with derivative couplings (CDNMDC), we derive suitable criteria using an adaptive feedback control method. Additionally, we investigate the synchronization criterion of these complex networks while accounting for parameter uncertainties. Finally, we provide an example to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed solutions.
