The finite-time synchronization control is studied in this paper for a class of nonlinear uncertain complex dynamic networks. The uncertainties in the network are unknown but bounded and satisfy some matching conditions. The coupling relationship between network nodes is described by a nonlinear function satisfying the Lipchitz condition. By introducing a simple Lyapunov function, two main results regarding finite-time synchronization of a class of complex dynamic networks with parameter

... inties are derived. By employing some analysis techniques like matrix inequalities, suitable controllers can be designed based on the obtained synchronization criteria. Moreover, with the obtained control input, the time instant required for the system to achieve finite-time synchronization can be estimated if a set of LMIs are feasible or an assumption on the eigenvalues of some matrices can be satisfied. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed results is verified by numerical simulation.
