Dynamics of a Two-Dimensional Delayed Small-World Network under Delayed Feedback Control

This paper presents a detailed analysis on the dynamics of a two-dimensional delayed small-world network under delayed state feedback control. On the basis of stability switch criteria, the equilibrium is studied, and the stability conditions are determined. This study shows that with properly chosen delay and gain in the delayed feedback path, the controlled small-world delayed network may have stable equilibrium, or periodic solutions resulting from the Hopf bifurcation, or the multistability solutions via three types of codimension two bifurcations. Moreover, the direction of Hopf bifurcation and stability of the bifurcation periodic solutions are determined by using the normal form theory and center manifold theorem. In addition, the study shows that the controlled model exhibits period-doubling bifurcations which lead eventually to chaos; and the chaos can also directly occur via the bifurcations from the quasi-periodic solutions. The results show that the delayed feedback is an effective approach in order to generate or annihilate complex behaviors in practical applications.
