In this paper, the mean-square exponential stability is investigated for multi-linked stochastic delayed complex networks with stochastic hybrid impulses. Distinct from the existing literature, we study the MSDCNs on the basis of the multi-linked stochastic functional differential equations that consider the impact of a certain past interval on the present. Moreover, the stochastic hybrid impulses we discuss possess stochastic impulsive moments and impulsive gain, which make the impulses fit better to the real-world demands for control. Also, a novel concept of average stochastic impulsive gain is proposed to measure the intensity of the stochastic hybrid impulses. By the use of Dupire Itô’s formula, based on Lyapunov method, graph theory and stochastic analysis techniques, two sufficient criteria for the mean-square exponential stability are derived, which are closely related to average stochastic impulsive gain, stochastic disturbance strength as well as the topological structure of the network itself. Finally, an application about neural networks is discussed and corresponding numerical example is presented to demonstrate the feasibility and effectiveness of the theoretical results.
