Novel aperiodically intermittent stability criteria for Markovian switching stochastic delayed coupled systems.

This paper concerns th moment exponential stability of stochastic coupled systems with multiple time-varying delays, and Markovian switching topologies via intermittent control. Compared with previous research results, the mathematical model of this kind of stochastic coupled systems with multiple time-varying delays and Markovian switching topologies is studied for the first time. The intermittent control designed in this paper is aperiodical, which is more general in practice. Moreover, the restriction between control width and time delays is removed. By constructing a new differential inequality on delayed dynamical systems with Markovian switching topologies and combining the graph-theoretic approach with M-matrix theory, two sufficient criteria are derived to guarantee th moment exponential stability of systems. Moreover, the exponential convergence rate has a close relationship with the maximum ratio of the rest width to the aperiodical time span (the sum of the control width and the rest width). Finally, we employ the theoretical results to study the exponential stability of stochastic coupled oscillators with multiple time-varying delays and Markovian switching topologies. Meanwhile, a numerical example is presented to illustrate the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed results.
