Mittag–Leffler stability, control, and synchronization for chaotic generalized fractional-order systems

Abstract

AbstractIn this paper, we investigate the generalized fractional system (GFS) with order lying in $(1, 2)$ ( 1 , 2 ) . We present stability analysis of GFS by two methods. First, the stability analysis of that system using the Gronwall–Bellman (G–B) Lemma, the Mittag–Leffler (M–L) function, and the Laplace transform is introduced. Secondly, by the Lyapunov direct method, we study the M–L stability of our system with order lying in $(1, 2)$ ( 1 , 2 ) . Using the modified predictor–corrector method, the solutions of GFSs are calculated and they are more complicated than the classical fractional one. Based on linear feedback control, we investigate a theorem to control the chaotic GFSs with order lying in $(1, 2)$ ( 1 , 2 ) . We present an example to verify the validity of control theorem. We state and prove a theorem to calculate the analytical formula of controllers that are used to achieve synchronization between two different chaotic GFSs. An example to study the synchronization for systems with orders lying in $(1, 2)$ ( 1 , 2 ) is given. We found an agreement between analytical results and numerical simulations.
