In this paper we interpret chaos synchronization schemes within the framework of Lagrange programming networks, which form a class of continuous-time optimization methods for solving constrained nonlinear optimization problems. From this study it follows that standard synchronization schemes can be regarded as a Lagrange programming network with soft constraining, where synchronization between ...

It is well known that equations of motions and equations which describe the dynamics of physical elds can be deduced from the condition the action S (determined by the corresponding Lagrange function) is optimal. In other words, there is an optimality criterion on the set of all trajectories, and the actual trajectory is optimal with respect to this criterion. The next reasonable question is: w...

The Lagrange representation of the interpolating polynomial can be rewritten in two more computationally attractive forms: a modified Lagrange form and a barycentric form. We give an error analysis of the evaluation of the interpolating polynomial using these two forms. The modified Lagrange formula is shown to be backward stable. The barycentric formula has a less favourable error analysis, bu...
