In this paper, we address the distributed average consensus problem over directed networks in open multi-agent systems (OMAS), where the stability of the network is disrupted by frequent agent arrivals and departures, leading to a…

A consensus system is a linear multi-agent system in which agents communicate to reach a so-called consensus state, defined as the average of the initial states of the agents. Consider a more generalized situation in which each agent is…
