Synchronization and Pinning Control in Complex Networks with Interval Time-Varying Delay

The problems on synchronization and pinning control for complex dynamical networks with interval time-varying delay are investigated and two less conservative criteria are established based on reciprocal convex technique. Pinning control strategies are designed to make the complex networks synchronized. Moreover, the problem of designing controllers can be converted into solving a series of NMIs (nonlinear matrix inequalities) and LMIs (linearmatrix inequalities), which reduces the computation complexity when comparing with those present results. Finally, numerical simulations can verify the effectiveness of the derived methods.
