In distributed optimization or Nash-equilibrium seeking over directed graphs, it is crucial to find a matrix norm under which the disagreement of individual agents' states contracts. In existing results, the matrix norm is usually defined…

This work contains two single-letter upper bounds on the entropy rate of a discrete-valued stationary stochastic process, which only depend on second-order statistics, and are primarily suitable for models which consist of relatively large…

We consider the problem of designing a stabilizing and optimal static controller with a pre-specified sparsity pattern. Since this problem is NP-hard in general, it is necessary to resort to approximation approaches. In this paper, we…
