Abstract In this paper, mathematical analysis is proposed on the synchronization problem for stochastic reaction-diffusion Cohen-Grossberg neural networks with Neumann boundary conditions. By introducing several important inequalities and using Lyapunov functional technique, some new synchronization criteria in terms of p-norm are derived under periodically intermittent control. Some previous known results in the literature are improved, and some restrictions on the mixed time-varying delays are removed. The influence of diffusion coefficients, diffusion space, stochastic perturbation and control width on synchronization is analyzed by the obtained synchronization criteria. Numerical simulations are presented to show the feasibility of the theoretical results.
