Asymptotic synchronization in lattices of coupled nonidentical Lorenz equations.
(English)
[J] Int. J. Bifurcation Chaos Appl. Sci. Eng. 10, No.12, 2717-2728 (2000). ISSN 0218-1274

Summary: We study coupled nonidentical Lorenz equations with three different boundary conditions. Coupling rules and boundary conditions play essential roles in the qualitative analysis of solutions of coupled systems. By using Lyapunov stability theory, a sufficient condition is obtained for the global stability of trivial equilibrium of coupled system with Dirichlet condition. Then we restrict our attention on the dynamics of coupled nonidentical Lorenz equations with Neumann/periodic boundary condition and prove that the asymptotic synchronization occurs provided the coupling strengths are sufficiently large. That is, the difference between any two components of solution is bounded by the quantity $O( \varepsilon/ \max\{c_1, c_2,c_3\})$ as $t\to\infty$, where $\varepsilon$ is the maximal deviation of parameters of nonidentical Lorenz equations, and $c_1$, $c_2$ and $c_3$ are the specified coupling strengths.
