In this paper the problem of driving the state of a network of identical agents, modeled by boundary-controlled heat equations, towards a common steady-state profile is addressed. Decentralized consensus protocols are proposed to address…

This paper is concerned with a leader-follower problem for a multi-agent system with a switching interconnection topology. Distributed observers are designed for the second-order follower-agents, under the common assumption that the…

This paper investigates robust synchronization for multi-agent systems (MASs) governed by parabolic partial differential equations in the presence of both observable and unobservable disturbances. Using only boundary output measurements, a…

This paper considers the leader-follower control problem for a linear multi-agent system with undirected topology and linear coupling subject to integral quadratic constraints (IQCs). A consensus-type control protocol is proposed based on…

This paper is concerned with the leader-following consensus problem for a class of Lipschitz nonlinear multi-agent systems with uncertain dynamics, where each agent only transmits its noisy output, at discrete instants and independently…

We consider large but finite systems of identical agents on the line with up to next nearest neighbor asymmetric coupling. Each agent is modelled by a linear second order differential equation, linearly coupled to up to four of its…

This paper revisits a well studied leader-following consensus problem of linear multi-agent systems, while aiming at follower nodes' transient performance. Conventionally, when not all follower nodes have access to the leader's state…

Synchronized movement of (both unicellular and multicellular) systems can be observed almost everywhere. Understanding of how organisms are regulated to synchronized behavior is one of the challenging issues in the field of collective…

In this paper, the synchronization of heterogeneous agents interacting over a dynamical network is studied. The edge dynamics can model the inter-agent communications which are often heterogeneous by nature. They can also model the…

This paper investigates a planar tracking problem between a leader and follower agent. We propose a novel feedback speed control law, paired with a constant bearing steering strategy, to maintain an abreast formation between the two agents.…

This work addresses the edge-based synchronization problem in first-order multi-agent systems containing both cooperative and antagonistic interactions with one or multiple leader groups. The presence of multiple leaders and antagonistic…

Adaptive synchronization protocols for heterogeneous multi-agent network are investigated. The interaction between each of the agents is carried out through a directed graph. We highlight the lack of communication between agents and the…

This paper addresses the robust stability of a boundary controlled system coupling two partial differential equations (PDEs), namely beam and string equations, in the presence of boundary and in-domain disturbances under the framework of…

In this paper, we consider a leader-following consensus problem for networks of continuous-time integrator agents with a time-varying leader under measurement noises. We propose a neighbor-based state-estimation protocol for every agent to…

This paper focuses on the control of collective dynamics in large-scale multi-agent systems (MAS) operating in a 3-D space, with a specific emphasis on compensating for the influence of an unknown delay affecting the actuated leaders. The…

This paper studies the immersion and invariance (I&I) adaptive tracking problem for a class of nonlinear systems with nonlinear parameterization in the ISS framework. Under some mild assumptions, a novel I&I adaptive control algorithm is…

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…

In this note, the coordination of linear discrete-time multi-agent systems over digital networks is investigated with unmeasurable states in agents' dynamics. The quantized-observer based communication protocols and Certainty Equivalence…

The leader-following consensus problem of multi-agent systems over finite fields ${\mathbb F}_p$ is considered in this paper. Dynamics of each agent is governed by a linear equation over ${\mathbb F}_p$, where a distributed control protocol…

We address the problem of controlling the density of a large ensemble of follower agents by acting on a group of leader agents that interact with them. Using coupled partial integro-differential equations to describe leader and follower…
