Abstract:
In this article, the fixed-time (FXT) synchronization of discontinuous competitive neural networks (CNNs) involving time-varying delays is investigated. Firstly, two kinds of discontinuous FXT control schemes are proposed and two forms of Lyapunov function are constructed based on p-norm and 1-norm to discuss the FXT synchronization of CNNs. By means of nonsmooth analysis and some inequality techniques, some simple criteria are obtained to achieve FXT synchronization and the upper bound of the settling time with less conservativeness is provided. Furthermore, the effect of time scale on FXT synchronization of CNNs is considered. Lastly, some numerical results for an example are provided to demonstrate the derived theoretical results.
