The final, formatted version of the article will be published soon.

This paper studies first-and second-order coherence problems for N-duplication weighted corona networks subject to stochastic disturbances. Explicit expressions of the coherence for first-order (and second-order) dynamics, which are determined by the sum of reciprocal (and square of reciprocal) of each nonzero eigenvalue of Laplacian matrix, are derived. In particular, for both first-and second-order systems, the analytical formulas of the network coherence are presented from two different perspectives. Based on these formulas, the influence of the duplication N, the weight ω and the factor networks G 1 and G 2 on the network coherence of the corona network G 1 • G 2 is investigated. Some noteworthy topological properties of the N-duplication weighted corona network are also revealed.

Keywords: robustness, Network coherence, N-duplication weighted corona network, Laplacian spectrum, Join operation. Nomenclature:, N-duplication Corona product
