Adaptive Finite-Time Synchronization of Neutral Type Dynamical Network with Double Derivative Coupling.

This paper discusses the problem of adaptive finite-time synchronization for neutral type dynamical network model with double derivative coupling. Based on the Lyapunov functional theory, inequality theorem, and adaptive control technique, some synchronization criteria of neutral type dynamical network are established by using adaptive finite-time control, which is different from the existence of finite-time synchronization of neutral type network using LMI and matrix equality constraint methods. Moreover, when the dynamics nodes of the neutral type network contain delay or no delay, the control gain of the response network are also provided. Finally, the effectiveness of the synchronization criteria proposed in this paper is verified by numerical simulations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
