Complete synchronization of discrete-time fractional-order BAM neural networks with leakage and discrete delays

Abstract

This paper concerns complete synchronization (CS) problem of discrete-time fractional-order BAM neural networks (BAMNNs) with leakage and discrete delays. Firstly, on the basis of Caputo fractional difference theory and nabla $l$-Laplace transform, two equations about the nabla sum are strictly proved. Secondly, two extended Halanay inequalities that are suitable for discrete-time fractional difference inequations with arbitrary initial time and multiple types of delays are introduced. In addition, through applying Caputo fractional difference theory and combining with inequalities gained from this paper, some sufficient CS criteria of discrete-time fractional-order BAMNNs with leakage and discrete delays are established under adaptive controller. Finally, one numerical simulation is utilized to certify the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.
