Abstract :
This paper is concerned with synchronizing complex networks with arbitrary topological structures via pinning control. The necessary and sufficient conditions are established for choosing the pinned nodes to guarantee the pinning synchronzability of the complex networks. Under the assumption of the sufficient large coupling strength, it is shown that the way to pin the nodes is a decisive factor in determining the pinning synchronizability of complex networks and the entire network can achieve an exponentially fast speed of synchronization.
