Consensus Index

In this article, the consensus-related performances of the triplex multi-agent systems with star-related structures, which can be measured by the algebraic connectivity and network coherence, have been studied by the characterization of Laplacian spectra. Some notions of graph operations are introduced to construct several triplex networks with star substructures. The methods of graph spectra are applied to derive the network coherence, and some asymptotic behaviors of the indices have been derived. It is found that the operations of adhering star topologies will make the first-order coherence increase a constant value under the triplex structures as parameters tend to infinity, and the second-order coherence have some equality relations as the node related parameters tend to infinity. Finally, the consensus related indices of the triplex systems with the same number of nodes but non-isomorphic graph structures have been compared and simulated to verify the results.

This paper proposes a novel finite-time consensus tracking protocol for guaranteeing first-order multi-agent systems with a virtual leader to achieve the fast finite-time consensus tracking. The Lyapunov function method, algebra graph theory, homogeneity with dilation and some other techniques are employed to prove that first-order multi-agent systems with a virtual leader applying the proposed protocol can reach the finite-time consensus tracking. Furthermore, theoretical analysis and numerical simulations show that compared with the traditional finite-time consensus tracking protocols, the proposed protocol can accelerate the convergence speed of achieving the finite-time consensus tracking.
