Distributed finite-time containment control for double-integrator multiagent systems.

TL;DR: In this paper, the distributed finite-time containment control problem for double-integrator multiagent systems with multiple leaders and external disturbances is discussed and algorithms designed to guarantee that the states of the followers converge to the dynamic convex hull spanned by those of the leaders in finite time are proposed.

Containment control of heterogeneous linear multi-agent systems

TL;DR: This work modify the conventional output regulation error in such a way that it can handle more than one leader, and introduces a dynamic compensator, based on a new formulation for containment error.

Consensus problems in networks of agents with switching topology and time-delays

TL;DR: A distinctive feature of this work is to address consensus problems for networks with directed information flow by establishing a direct connection between the algebraic connectivity of the network and the performance of a linear consensus protocol.

Coordination of groups of mobile autonomous agents using nearest neighbor rules

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.

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.

Flocking for multi-agent dynamic systems: algorithms and theory

TL;DR: A theoretical framework for design and analysis of distributed flocking algorithms, and shows that migration of flocks can be performed using a peer-to-peer network of agents, i.e., "flocks need no leaders."
