The present paper proposes a framework for the systematic and fruitful application of complex-order operators modeling control applications. We emphasize that special care must be taken when using elements to ensure their responses real-valued stimuli are themselves. proposed enable seamless generalization conventional real integer-order counterparts. further demonstrate how any linear operator...

Abstract The impulsive synchronization of a fractional-order complex-variable network is investigated. Firstly, static controllers are designed and the corresponding criteria derived. From criteria, gains can be calculated. Secondly, adaptive designed. Noticeably, adjusted to needed values adaptively. Finally, numerical examples provided verify results.

The Lycocerus kiontochananus species complex is revised; L. perroudi (Pic, 1937) stat. rev., originally in Cantharis, is resurrected from synonymy with L. kiontochananus (Pic, 1921); L. atropygidialis (Pic, 1937) stat. nov., originally in Cantharis, is upgraded from Cantharis perroudi var. atropygidialis Pic, 1937 and resurrected from synonymy with L. kiontochananus; L. kejvali Švihla, 2004 syn...
