Pinning outer synchronization of partially coupled dynamical networks with complex inner coupling matrices

Outer Synchronization of Complex-Variable Networks with Complex Coupling via Impulsive Pinning Control

“…Due to the complexities of dynamical networks, outer synchronization between them is difficult and even impossible to achieve without external control. Therefore, many control schemes are adopted to design effective controllers, such as impulsive control [13,14], intermittent control [15,16], pinning control [14][15][16][17], finite-time control [18], and so on. In [14], authors considered the outer synchronization of drive-response networks by combining impulsive and pinning control.…”

“…In [15,16], authors investigated the outer synchronization via intermittent pinning control. In [17], authors considered pinning outer synchronization. In [18], authors considered finite-time outer synchronization and discussed its application in image encryption.…”
