Abstract
We discuss certain types of cyclic and nearly cyclic interactions among N "point"-agents in the plane, leading to formations of interesting limiting geometric configurations. Cyclic pursuit and local averaging interactions have been analyzed in the context of multi-agent gathering. In this paper, we consider some nearly cyclic interactions that break symmetry leading to factor circulants rather than circulant interaction matrices.
