Without assuming the symmetry or irreducibility of the coupling configuration matrices, this paper investigates the pinning synchronization in an array of linearly coupled delayed neural networks with both constant and delayed couplings. Under some low-dimensional conditions, it is shown that...

Projective synchronization (characterized by a scaling factor α) and its control have recently been well investigated in two coupled chaotic oscillators, but it has not been realized yet in the case of more than two chaotic systems. In this paper, we study the projective synchronization in 1+N...

In this paper, we investigate the effects of degree correlation on the controllability of undirected networks with different degree-mixing patterns based on simulation analysis. Considering random pinning, max-degree pinning and mix-degree pinning, some relevance factors on controllability such...

Synchronization of general complex dynamical networks with fractional-order dynamical nodes is addressed in this paper. Based on the stability theory of fractional-order differential systems and adaptive pinning control, some sufficient local asymptotical synchronization criteria and global...

Time delays commonly exist in the real world. In the present work we consider weighted general complex dynamical networks with time delay, which are undirected and connected. Control of such networks, by applying local feedback injections to a fraction of network nodes, is investigated for both...

In this paper, we study the projective cluster synchronization in a drive-response dynamical network with 1+N coupled partially linear chaotic systems. Because the scaling factors characterizing the dynamics of projective synchronization remain unpredictable, pinning control ideas are adopted to...

Previous studies concerning pinning control of complex-network synchronization have very often demonstrated that in an unweighted symmetrical scale-free network, controlling the high-degree nodes is more efficient than controlling randomly chosen ones; due to the heterogeneity of the node-degree...

Recently, the researches on pinning control of complex dynamical networks have mainly focused on such networks with very specific coupling schemes (e.g., symmetric coupling, uniform coupling and linear coupling). However, most real networks often consist of local units, which interact with each...
