We consider the problem of steering a multi-agent system to multi-consensus, namely a regime where groups of agents agree on a given value which may be different from group to group. We first address the problem by using distributed…

Stability and analysis of multi-agent network systems with state-dependent switching typologies have been a fundamental and longstanding challenge in control, social sciences, and many other related fields. These already complex systems…
In this paper we propose a novel method for achieving average consensus in a continuous-time multiagent network while avoiding to disclose the initial states of the individual agents. In order to achieve privacy protection of the state…
The leader-following consensus problem of multi-agent systems over finite fields ${\mathbb F}_p$ is considered in this paper. Dynamics of each agent is governed by a linear equation over ${\mathbb F}_p$, where a distributed control protocol…
