Controllability of multi-agent systems from a graph-theoretic perspective
In this work, we consider the controlled agreement problem for multi-agent networks, where
a collection of agents take on leader roles while the remaining agents execute local …

Interconnection topologies for multi-agent coordination under leader–follower framework
In this paper, the formation control problem of the network of multiple agents is studied in
terms of controllability, where the network is of the leader–follower structure with some …

Optimal consensus algorithms for cooperative team of agents subject to partial information
The objectives of this work are the development and design of controllers for a team of
agents that accomplish consensus for agents' output in both leaderless (LL) and modified …

Controllability of hypergraphs
In this paper, we develop a notion of controllability for hypergraphs via tensor algebra and
polynomial control theory. Inspired by uniform hypergraphs, we propose a new tensor-based …

Leaders in multi-agent controllability under consensus algorithm and tree topology
Z Ji, H Lin, H Yu - Systems & Control Letters, 2012 - Elsevier
By controllability of multi-agent systems, we mean the property that all agents can be driven
to arbitrary configurations only through regulating a few leaders externally, while the rest of …

Structural controllability and observability of linear systems over finite fields with applications to multi-agent systems
We develop a graph-theoretic characterization of controllability and observability of linear
systems over finite fields. Specifically, we show that a linear system will be structurally …
