Stochastic quasi-synchronization of heterogeneous delayed impulsive dynamical networks via single impulsive control.

Abstract

This paper investigates the quasi-synchronization problem of the stochastic heterogeneous complex dynamical networks with impulsive couplings and multiple time-varying delays. It is shown that this kind of dynamical networks can achieve exponential quasi-synchronization by exerting impulsive control added on only one chosen pinning node. By employing the Lyapunov stability theory, some sufficient criteria on quasi-synchronization for this dynamical network are established, revealing the relationship between the quasi-synchronization performance and the stochastic perturbations as well as the frequency and strength of impulsive coupling. Finally, some numerical examples are used to illustrate the effectiveness of the main results.
