ON THE PINNING CONTROLLABILITY OF COMPLEX NETWORKS USING PERTURBATION THEORY OF EXTREME SINGULAR VALUES. APPLICATION TO SYNCHRONISATION IN POWER GRIDS

摘要

Pinning control on complex dynamical networks has emerged as a very important topic in recent trends of control theory due to the extensive study of collective coupled behaviors and their role in physics, engineering and biology. In practice, real-world networks consist of a large number of vertices and one may only be able to perform a control on a fraction of them only. Controllability of such systems has been addressed in [17], where it was reformulated as a global asymptotic stability problem. The goal of this short note is to refine the analysis proposed in [17] using recent results in singular value perturbation theory.
