Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the prespecified-time bipartite synchronization (PTBS) of coupled reaction-diffusion memristive neural networks (CRDMNNs) with both competitive and cooperative interactions. Two types of bipartite synchronization are considered: leaderless PTBS and leader-following PTBS. With the help of a structural balance condition, the criteria for PTBS for CRDMNNs are derived by designing suitable Lyapunov functionals and novel control protocols. Different from the traditional finite-time or fixed-time synchronization, the settling time obtained in this paper is independent of control gains and initial values, which can be pre-set according to the task requirements. Lastly, numerical simulations are given to verify the obtained results.
