TLDR
The effect of switching topologies on consensus is determined by the union of topologies associated with the positive recurrent states of the Markov process, and the effect of random link failures on discrete time consensus is investigated.

Consensus of Multiagent Systems Subject to Partially Accessible and Overlapping Markovian Network Topologies

TL;DR: This paper addresses the consensus problem for a continuous-time multiagent system (MAS) with Markovian network topologies and external disturbance with a proposed consensus protocol that relies only on group and partial modes and eliminates the need for complete knowledge of global modes.

Fixed-Time Leader–Follower Consensus of Networked Nonlinear Systems via Event/Self-Triggered Control

TL;DR: This brief addresses the fixed-time event/self-triggered leader–follower consensus problems for networked multi-agent systems subject to nonlinear dynamics and proposes two new self-Triggered control strategies to avoid continuous triggering condition monitoring.

Some necessary and sufficient conditions for consensus of second-order multi-agent systems with sampled position data

TL;DR: A novel distributed consensus protocol, where only causal sampled position data are used, is firstly designed for second-order linear multi-agent systems with a directed communication topology and found that consensus under this designed protocol cannot be reached in the absence of time delay.

Consensus seeking in multiagent systems under dynamically changing interaction topologies

TL;DR: It is shown that information consensus under dynamically changing interaction topologies can be achieved asymptotically if the union of the directed interaction graphs have a spanning tree frequently enough as the system evolves.

Markov Chains and Stochastic Stability

TL;DR: This second edition reflects the same discipline and style that marked out the original and helped it to become a classic: proofs are rigorous and concise, the range of applications is broad and knowledgeable, and key ideas are accessible to practitioners with limited mathematical background.
