For the case where the dependency digraph has no spanning in-tree, we characterize the region of convergence of the basic continuous-time distributed consensus algorithm and show that consensus can be achieved by employing the method of…

We show that the limiting state vector in the differential model of consensus seeking with an arbitrary communication digraph is obtained by multiplying the eigenprojection of the Laplacian matrix of the model by the vector of initial…

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…

We study the decentralized consensus and stochastic optimization problems with compressed communications over static directed graphs. We propose an iterative gradient-based algorithm that compresses messages according to a desired…

We present distributed algorithms that can be used by multiple agents to align their estimates with a particular value over a network with time-varying connectivity. Our framework is general in that this value can represent a consensus…

This paper addresses the distributed consensus problem for a linear multi-agent system with switching directed communication topologies. By appropriately introducing a linear transformation, the consensus problem is equivalently converted…

In this paper, we propose an approximate projected consensus algorithm for a network to cooperatively compute the intersection of convex sets. Instead of assuming the exact convex projection proposed in the literature, we allow each node to…

We investigate convergence properties of a proposed distributed model predictive control (DMPC) scheme, where agents negotiate to compute an optimal consensus point using an incremental subgradient method based on primal decomposition as…

Within the realm of industrial technology, optimization methods play a pivotal role and are extensively applied across various sectors, including transportation engineering, robotics, and machine learning. With the surge in data volumes,…

In this paper, we propose several consensus protocols of the first and second order for networked multi-agent systems and provide explicit representations for their asymptotic states. These representations involve the eigenprojection of the…

This paper studies consensus of discrete-time multi-agent systems under time-varying directed communication, state and input constraints using a distributed multi-step model predictive control (MPC) framework. Consensus is recast as…

This work addresses the output consensus problem of constrained heterogeneous multi-agent systems under a switching network with potential communication delays, where outputs are periodic and characterized by an exosystem. Since periodic…

Reaching consensus among states of a multi-agent system is a key requirement for many distributed control/optimization problems. Such a consensus is often achieved using the standard Laplacian matrix (for continuous system) or Perron matrix…

This paper investigates a decentralized design approach of leader-following consensus protocols for heterogeneous multiagent systems under a fixed communication topology with a directed spanning tree (DST) and asymmetric weight matrix.…

We propose the multidimensional social compass model, based on two competing key ingredients: DeGroot learning, driven by the social influence exerted across multiple topics, and the preference of individuals to maintain their initial…

This paper investigates the distributed consensus tracking control problem for general linear multi-agent systems (MASs) with external disturbances and heterogeneous time-varying input and communication delays under a directed communication…

We study the consensus formation for an agents based model, generalizing that originally proposed by Krause \cite{Kr}, by allowing the communication channels between any couple of agents to be switched on or off randomly, at each time step,…

This paper considers the distributed consensus problem of linear multi-agent systems subject to different matching uncertainties for both the cases without and with a leader of bounded unknown control input. Due to the existence of…

Decentralized optimization is well studied for smooth unconstrained problems. However, constrained problems or problems with composite terms are an open direction for research. We study structured (or composite) optimization problems, where…

In this paper, a distributed velocity-constrained consensus problem is studied for discrete-time multi-agent systems, where each agent's velocity is constrained to lie in a nonconvex set. A distributed constrained control algorithm is…
