Adaptive Increasing-Order Synchronization and Anti-Synchronization of Chaotic Systems with Uncertain Parameters

We elaborate the concept of increasing-order synchronization and anti-synchronization of chaotic systems via an adaptive control scheme and modulation parameters. It is shown that the dynamical evolution of a third-order chaotic system can be synchronized and anti-synchronized with a fourth-order chaotic system even though their parameters are unknown. Theoretical analysis and numerical simulations are carried out to verify the results.
