This paper investigates the consensus problem in almost sure sense for uncertain multi-agent systems with noises and fixed topology. By combining the tools of stochastic analysis, algebraic graph theory, and matrix theory, we analyze the…

In this paper, we provide a theoretical analysis for nonlinear discontinuous consensus protocols in networks of multiagents over weighted directed graphs. By integrating the analytic tools from nonsmooth stability analysis and graph theory,…

We provide a complete characterization of both uniform and non-uniform deterministic consensus solvability in distributed systems with benign process and communication faults using point-set topology. More specifically, we non-trivially…

In this paper, we study finite-time state consensus problems for continuous nonlinear multi-agent systems. Building on the theory of finite-time Lyapunov stability, we propose sufficient criteria which guarantee the system to reach a…

This paper proposes the matrix-weighted consensus algorithm, which is a generalization of the consensus algorithm in the literature. Given a networked dynamical system where the interconnections between agents are weighted by nonnegative…

In this technical note we address the problem of achieving consensus in a network of homogeneous nonlinear systems. The communication network is supposed to be switching within a finite set of topologies which may be disconnected for finite…

The leader-following consensus of multiple linear time invariant (LTI) systems under switching topology is considered. The leader-following consensus problem consists of designing for each agent a distributed protocol to make all agents…

This paper deals with the finite-time stabilization of a class of nonlinear infinite-dimensional systems. First, we consider a bounded matched perturbation in its linear form. It is shown that by using a set-valued function, both the…

Two types of general nonlinear consensus protocols are considered in this paper, namely the systems with nonlinear measurement and communication of the agents' states, respectively. The solutions of the systems are understood in the sense…

This paper investigates the consensus problem of multiple uncertain Lagrangian systems. Due to the discontinuity resulted from the switching topology, achieving consensus in the context of uncertain Lagrangian systems is challenging. We…

The topology transition problem of transmission networks is becoming increasingly crucial with topological flexibility more widely leveraged to promote high renewable penetration. This paper proposes a novel methodology to address this…

This paper proposes a new approach to analyze and synthesize robust consensus control laws for general linear leaderless multi-agent systems (MASs) subjected to input constraints or uncertainties. First, the MAS under input constraints or…

This paper investigates a new method for consensus in a group of nonlinear complex multi-agent systems using fixed-order non-fragile dynamic output feedback controller, via an LMI approach. The proposed scheme is decentralized in the sense…

We study the convergence speed of distributed iterative algorithms for the consensus and averaging problems, with emphasis on the latter. We first consider the case of a fixed communication topology. We show that a simple adaptation of a…

In this paper, we study asynchronous consensus problems of continuous-time multi-agent systems with discontinuous information transmission. The proposed consensus control strategy is implemented only based on the state information at some…

In this work, we characterize a class of nonlinear monotone dynamical systems that have a certain translation invariance property which goes by the name of plus-homogeneity; usually called "topical" systems. Such systems need not be…

In this paper, we propose a new and systematic design framework for output consensus in heterogeneous Multi-Input Multi-Output (MIMO) general nonlinear Multi-Agent Systems (MASs) subjected to directed communication topology. First, the…

There has been substantial work studying consensus problems for which there is a single common final state, although there are many real-world complex networks for which the complete consensus may be undesirable. More recently, the concept…

This paper proposes a new distance metric between clusterings that incorporates information about the spatial distribution of points and clusters. Our approach builds on the idea of a Hilbert space-based representation of clusters as a…

This paper concerns the consensus of discrete-time multi-agent systems with linear or linearized dynamics. An observer-type protocol based on the relative outputs of neighboring agents is proposed. The consensus of such a multi-agent system…
