TLDR
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.Abstract:
This note considers the problem of information consensus among multiple agents in the presence of limited and unreliable information exchange with dynamically changing interaction topologies. Both discrete and continuous update schemes are proposed for information consensus. This note shows 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.read more

Multi-agent distributed coordination control
TL;DR: In this paper, the recent developments of distributed coordination control problems are summarized in a graph-theory-based framework, where the graph is used to describe the interconnections among agents, and different distributed control problems, such as consensus, formation control, rendezvous, alignment, swarming, flocking, containment control and circumnavigation control, are adopted to this description by considering different cooperative objects.

Finite-Time Consensus for Linear Multiagent Systems via Event-Triggered Strategy Without Continuous Communication
TL;DR: By employing a novel distributed event-triggered controller for each agent, finite-time consensus of multiagent systems can be achieved and the feasibility of the proposed approach is guaranteed by the comprehensive theoretical demonstration of the finite- time consensus stability and the analysis of the Zeno behavior.

TL;DR: A theoretical explanation for the observed behavior of the Vicsek model, which proves to be a graphic example of a switched linear system which is stable, but for which there does not exist a common quadratic Lyapunov function.
