Abstract
This paper is devoted to the global exponential and fixed-time synchronization of delayed reaction-diffusion Cohen–Grossberg neural networks. Adaptive controllers are designed such that the addressed system can realize global exponential synchronization goal under the framework of inequality techniques, Lyapunov method as well as some suitable assumptions. Furthermore, as corollaries, the corresponding conclusion is provided to ensure the delayed Cohen–Grossberg neural networks without reaction-diffusion term can reach fixed-time synchronization goal. In addition, the settling time of fixed-time synchronization can be adjusted to desired values regardless of initial conditions, which is more reasonable. Finally, two numerical examples and its simulations are given to show the effectiveness of the obtained results.
