The global μ-synchronization problem for nonlinear multi-weighted complex dynamical networks with uncertain parameter perturbation and mixed time-varying delays is investigated in this paper. Unlike other existing works, all delays, including sampling and internal and coupling delays, are assumed to be unbounded, making the considered model more general and practical. Based on the generalized impulsive comparison principles, a time-varying impulsive controller with sampling delays is designed, and some new sufficient conditions are obtained to make drive–response multi-weighted networks reach μ-synchronization. In addition, the external coupling matrices do not need to meet the requirement of zero-row sum, and the limitation of time delay on pulse interval is weakened. The results obtained in this article can be seen as extensions of previous related research.
This study explores the synchronization issue for uncertain multi-link complex networks incorporating stochastic characteristics and hybrid delays. Unlike previous works, internal delays, coupling delays, and stochastic delays considered in our model change over time; meanwhile, the impulse strength and position change with time evolution. To actualize network synchronization, a strategy called hybrid impulsive pinning control is applied, which combines the virtue of impulsive control and pinning control as well as two categories of impulses (i.e., synchronization and desynchronization). By decomposing the complicated topological structures into diagonal items and off-diagonal items, multiple nonlinear coupling terms are linearly decomposed in the process of theoretical analysis. Combining inequality technology and matrix decomposition theory, several novel synchronization criteria have been gained to ensure synchronization for the concerning multi-link model. The criteria get in touch with the uncertain strengths, coupling strengths, hybrid impulse strengths, delay sizes, impulsive intervals, and network topologies.
This article addresses the issue of drive–response synchronization in fractional-order multi-link memristive neural networks (FMMNN) with multiple delays, under hybrid impulsive feedback control. To address the impact of multiple delays on system synchronization, an extended fractional-order delayed comparison principle incorporating impulses is established. By leveraging Laplace transform, Mittag–Leffler functions, the generalized comparison principle, and hybrid impulsive feedback control schemes, several new sufficient conditions are derived to ensure synchronization in the addressed FMMNN. Unlike existing studies on fractional-order single-link memristor-based systems, our response network is a multi-link model that considers impulsive effects. Notably, the impulsive gains αi are not limited to a small interval, thus expanding the application range of our approach (αi∈(−2,0)∪(−∞,−2)∪(0,+∞)). This feature allows one to choose impulsive gains and corresponding impulsive intervals that are appropriate for the system environment and control requirements. The theoretical results obtained in this study contribute to expanding the relevant theoretical achievements of fractional-order neural networks incorporating memristive characteristics.
