Pinning synchronization of fractional-order complex networks by a single controller

We investigate the state feedback pinning synchronization of fractional-order complex networks. Based on the stability theory of fractional-order differential systems and state feedback control by a single controller, synchronization conditions for fractional-order complex networks are given. We assume that the coupling matrix is irreducible, and provide a numerical example to illustrate the validity of the proposed conclusions. doi:10.1017/S144618111700001
