A recent research indicated that the corticocortical connectivity network of the cat possesses cluster structure and that each cluster in the network is scale-free and has a most connected hub. Motivated by that research, we slightly modify the network model and derive sufficient conditions for cluster synchronization of the modified network based on Lyapunov function method. The obtained results indicate that cluster synchronization can be induced by the hubs of the scale-free networks. In our opinion, the concept of hub-induced synchronization provides a better understanding of cluster synchronization in scale-free networks. Numerical examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.

The cluster synchronization of linearly coupled complex networks with identical and nonidentical nodes is studied. Without assuming symmetry, we proved that these linearly coupled complex networks could achieve cluster synchronization under certain pinning control schemes. Sufficient conditions guaranteeing cluster synchronization for any initial values are derived by using Lyapunov function methods. Moreover, the adaptive feedback algorithms are proposed to adjust the control strength. Several numerical examples are given to illustrate our theoretical results.

We study a two-patch impulsive migration periodicN-species Lotka-Volterra competitive system. Based on analysis method, inequality estimation, and Lyapunov function method, sufficient conditions for the permanence and existence of a unique globally stable positive periodic solution of the system are established. Some numerical examples are shown to verify our results and discuss the model further.

Two classes of periodicN-species Lotka-Volterra facultative mutualism systems with distributed delays are discussed. Based on the continuation theorem of the coincidence degree theory developed by Gaines and Mawhin and the Lyapunov function method, some new sufficient conditions on the existence and global attractivity of positive periodic solutions are established.

This paper focuses on the problems of input-to-state stability (ISS) and stabilization for nonlinear impulsive positive systems (NIPS). Using the max-separable ISS Lyapunov function method, a sufficient condition on ISS is given for general NIPS. On that basis, the ISS criteria for linear impulsive positive systems (LIPS) and affine nonlinear impulsive positive systems (ANIPS) are given. Through them, ISS properties can be directly judged from the algebraic and differential characteristics of the systems. Then, utilizing the ISS criteria, state-feedback and impulsive controllers are designed for LIPS and ANIPS, respectively, which make the systems input-to-state stabilizable. Lastly, some numerical examples are given to verify the effectiveness of our results.

In this paper, outer synchronization of complex-variable networks with complex coupling is considered. Sufficient conditions for achieving outer synchronization using static impulsive pinning controllers are first derived according to the Lyapunov function method and stability theory of impulsive differential equations. From these conditions, the necessary impulsive gains and intervals for given networks can be easily calculated. Further, an adaptive strategy is introduced to design universal controllers and avoid repeated calculations for different networks. Notably, the estimation algorithms of the impulsive gains and intervals are provided. Finally, three numerical examples are performed to verify the effectiveness of the main results.

In this paper, topology monitoring of growing networks is studied. When some new nodes are added into a network, the topology of the network is changed, which needs to be monitored in many applications. Some auxiliary systems (network monitors) are designed to achieve this goal. Both linear feedback control and adaptive strategy are applied to designing such network monitors. Based on the Lyapunov function method via constructing a potential or energy function decreasing along any solution of the system, and the LaSalle's invariance principle, which is a generalization of the Lyapunov function method, some sufficient conditions for achieving topology monitoring are obtained. Illustrative examples are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the new method.

When being constructed, complex dynamical networks can lose stability in the sense of Lyapunov (i. s. L.) due to positive feedback. Thus, there is much important worthiness in the theory and applications of complex dynamical networks to study the stability. In this paper, according to dissipative system criteria, we give the stability condition in general complex dynamical networks, especially, in NW small-world and BA scale-free networks. The results of theoretical analysis and numerical simulation show that the stability i. s. L. depends on the maximal connectivity of the network. Finally, we show a numerical example to verify our theoretical results.
