Abstract

This Letter introduces a new method - mode decomposition - for stability analysis of periodic orbits. Using this method, the stability of a periodic solution of an autonomous system, as well as the stability of synchronization within three chaotic systems with linear coupling, can be analyzed. As an example, a rigorous sufficient condition on the coupling coefficients for achieving chaos synchronization is obtained, for the case of three-coupled identical Lorenz systems. Numerical simulations are shown for demonstration. © 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
