Distributed linear algebraic equation over networks, where nodes hold a part of problem data and cooperatively solve the equation via node-to-node communications, is a basic distributed computation task receiving an increasing research…

This paper is concerned with distributed computation of several commonly used centrality measures in complex networks. In particular, we propose deterministic algorithms, which converge in finite time, for the distributed computation of the…

Distributed consensus has been widely studied for sensor network applications. Whereas the asymptotic convergence rate has been extensively explored in prior work, other important and practical issues, including energy efficiency and link…

Results for estimating the convergence rate of non-stationary distributed consensus algorithms are provided, on the basis of qualitative (mainly topological) as well as basic quantitative information (lower-bounds on the matrix entries).…

We study the problem of efficiently approximating the \textit{effective resistance} (ER) on undirected graphs, where ER is a widely used node proximity measure with applications in graph spectral sparsification, multi-class graph…

Given a resistive electrical network, we would like to determine whether all the resistances (edges) in the network are working, and if not, identify which edge (or edges) are faulty. To make this determination, we are allowed to measure…

Distributed control increases system scalability, flexibility, and redundancy. Foundational to such decentralisation is consensus formation, by which decision-making and coordination are achieved. However, decentralised multi-agent systems…

In this paper we consider a network of processors aiming at cooperatively solving linear programming problems subject to uncertainty. Each node only knows a common cost function and its local uncertain constraint set. We propose a…

This paper studies probabilistic rates of convergence for consensus+innovations type of algorithms in random, generic networks. For each node, we find a lower and also a family of upper bounds on the large deviations rate function, thus…

We develop a theory to measure the variance and covariance of probability distributions defined on the nodes of a graph, which takes into account the distance between nodes. Our approach generalizes the usual (co)variance to the setting of…

This paper studies the fastest distributed consensus averaging problem on branches of an arbitrary connected sensor network. In the previous works full knowledge about the sensor network's connectivity topology was required for determining…

The total effective resistance, also called the Kirchhoff index, provides a robustness measure for a graph $G$. We consider two optimization problems of adding $k$ new edges to $G$ such that the resulting graph has minimal total effective…

The aim of this paper is to analyze a class of consensus algorithms with finite-time or fixed-time convergence for dynamic networks formed by agents with first-order dynamics. In particular, in the analyzed class a single evaluation of a…

This paper introduces some tools from graph theory and distributed consensus algorithms to construct an optimal, yet robust, hierarchical information sharing structure for large-scale decision making and control problems. The proposed…

We study the problem of resilient average consensus in multi-agent systems where some of the agents are subject to failures or attacks. The objective of resilient average consensus is for non-faulty/normal agents to converge to the average…

We consider decentralized optimization problems where one aims to minimize a sum of convex smooth objective functions distributed between nodes in the network. The links in the network can change from time to time. For the setting when the…

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…

Average consensus algorithms have wide applications in distributed computing systems where all the nodes agree on the average value of their initial states by only exchanging information with their local neighbors. In this letter, we look…

We consider performance deterioration of interconnected linear dynamical networks subject to exogenous stochastic disturbances. The focus of this paper is on first-order and second-order linear consensus networks. We employ the expected…

We investigate how the underlying graph of a network supports a flow between a source node and a destination node and propose to compute the expected number of nodes and links that contribute to transferring items in random graphs. Since…
