Adaptive fixed-time output synchronization for complex dynamical networks with multi-weights

This paper addresses fixed-time output synchronization problems for two types of complex dynamical networks with multi-weights (CDNMWs) by using two types of adaptive control methods. Firstly, complex dynamical networks with multiple state and output couplings are respectively presented. Secondly, several fixed-time output synchronization criteria for these two networks are formulated based on Lyapunov functional and inequality techniques. Thirdly, by employing two types of adaptive control methods, fixed-time output synchronization issues of these two networks are dealt with. At last, the analytical results are verified by two numerical simulations. (c) 2023 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
