Finite/Prescribed-Time Cluster Synchronization of Complex Dynamical Networks With Multiproportional Delays and Asynchronous Switching

This article focuses on the finite-time and prescribed-time cluster synchronization problems of switched complex networks with proportional delays. Considering that the matched controller often switches behind the switched systems, asynchronous switching law and switching parameters have been introduced to the complex dynamical networks. By applying the stability theory of dynamical systems and the average dwell time approach, some sufficient criteria in form of linear matrix inequalities have been developed to guarantee such networks finite/prescribed-time cluster synchronization under the pinning control scheme. Finally, one numerical example is presented to show the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
