This paper presents conditions for establishing topological controllability in undirected networks of diffusively coupled agents. Specifically, controllability is considered based on the signs of the edges (negative, positive or zero). Our…
We study opinion evolution in networks of stubborn agents discussing a sequence of issues, modeled through the so called concatenated Friedkin-Johnsen (FJ) model. It is concatenated in the sense that agents' opinions evolve for each issue,…
The shift from monolithic LLMs to distributed multi-agent architectures demands new frameworks for verifying and securing autonomous coordination. Unlike traditional multi-agent systems focused on cooperative state alignment, modern LLM…

In the typical multiagent formation tracking problem centered on consensus, the prevailing assumption in the literature is that the agents' nonlinear models can be approximated by integrator systems, by their feedback-linearized…
We have recently proposed a "surplus-based" algorithm which solves the multi-agent average consensus problem on general strongly connected and static digraphs. The essence of that algorithm is to employ an additional variable to keep track…

In this paper consensus in second-order multi-agent systems with a non-periodic sampled-data exchange among agents is investigated. The sampling is random with bounded inter-sampling intervals. It is assumed that each agent has exact…
A signed graph offers richer information than an unsigned graph, since it describes both collaborative and competitive relationships in social networks. In this paper, we study opinion dynamics on a signed graph, based on the…

Classic models on opinion dynamics usually focus on a group of agents forming their opinions interactively over single issue. Yet generally consensus can not be achieved over single issue when agents are not completely open to interpersonal…
In this paper, we study the distributed control of networked cyber-physical systems when a much more energy-efficient distributed communication management strategy is proposed to solve the well-studied consensus problem. In contrast to the…
