Summary: | Abstract This paper focuses on the stochastically exponential synchronization problem for one class of neural networks with time-varying delays (TDs) and Markov jump parameters (MJPs). To derive a tighter bound of reciprocally convex quadratic terms, we provide an improved reciprocally convex combination inequality (RCCI), which includes some existing ones as its particular cases. We construct an eligible stochastic Lyapunov–Krasovskii functional to capture more information about TDs, triggering signals, and MJPs. Based on a well-designed event-triggered control scheme, we derive several novel stability criteria for the underlying systems by employing the new RCCI and other analytical techniques. Finally, we present two numerical examples to show the validity of our methods.
