Structural balance for discrete-time complex dynamical network associated with the controlled nodes.

In this paper, the discrete-time complex dynamical networks with dynamic weighted value of connection relationships are regarded to be composed of the node and link subsystems, and the state variables of the two subsystems are mutually coupled. Different from most of the existing researches on synchronization or stabilization of nodes, the emphasis of this paper is on the links instead of nodes. This paper mainly focuses on the generation mechanism of structural balance in the link subsystem, the nodes only play an auxiliary role. Associated with the dynamic coupling term in the link subsystem, the suitable controller is proposed for node subsystem such that the structural balance of link subsystem without control input be achieved indirectly. Finally, a numerical simulation is given to show the effectiveness of the method in this paper. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
