Complete synchronizability of chaotic systems: A geometric approach

Synchronizability of chaotic systems is studied in this contribution. Geometrical tools are used to understand the properties of vector fields in affine systems. The discussion is focused on Synchronizability of chaotic systems with equal order. The analysis is based on the synchronous behavior of all states of the master/slave system (complete synchronization). We state sufficient and necessary conditions for complete Synchronizability which are based on controllability and observability of nonlinear affine systems. In this sense, the Synchronizability is studied for complete synchronization via state feedback control.
