A third-order consensus approach is proposed for the vehicle platoon. For addressing the platoon problem, a realistic, third-order vehicle dynamics model is used, and the spacing policy and the vehicle acceleration error are embedded into the consensus protocol. A sufficient and necessary condition of asymptotically stability is obtained for the vehicle platooning system. Numerical simulations for several traffic scenarios are carried out. The results demonstrate the effectiveness and the robustness of the presented approach.

This paper investigates the consensus problem of multi-agent systems with partial information transmission under an undirected topology. A distributed consensus protocol is proposed with local velocity feedback and the position information from neighbors. The consensus problem is converted to the stabilization problem by transforming the original systems into a reduced order state system. Then, by using graph theory and Jurys stability test, a sufficient and necessary condition for consensus of multi-agent systems is derived. An example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the presented results.

In this paper, we investigate discrete-time uncertain spatially interconnected systems (USISs), where uncertainties are modeled by linear fractional transformation (LFT). First, the well-posedness, quadratic stability and contractiveness of discrete-time USISs are introduced. Second, a sufficient condition is proposed to guarantee that discrete-time USISs are well-posed, quadratically stable and contractive. Then, a more tractable condition is derived to check the well-posedness, quadratic stability and contractiveness of discrete-time USISs via a modified bilinear transformation. Besides, the robust distributed filters which inherit the structure of the plants are designed. A sufficient and necessary condition is presented to guarantee the existence of the robust distributed filters. Finally, a vehicle platoon model demonstrates the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Abstract In this study, we obtain the scalar and matrix exponential functions through a series of quaternion-valued functions on time scales. A sufficient and necessary condition is established to guarantee that the induced matrix is real-valued for the complex adjoint matrix of a quaternion matrix. Moreover, the Cauchy matrices and Liouville formulas for the quaternion homogeneous and nonhomogeneous impulsive dynamic equations are given and proved. Based on it, the existence, uniqueness, and expressions of their solutions are also obtained, including their scalar and matrix forms. Since the quaternion algebra is noncommutative, many concepts and properties of the non-quaternion impulsive dynamic equations are ineffective, we provide several examples and counterexamples on various time scales to illustrate the effectiveness of our results.

AbstractThis paper studies the linear fractional-order delay differential equation $$ {}^{C}D^{\alpha }_{-}x(t)-px(t-\tau )= 0, $$ D − α C x ( t ) − p x ( t − τ ) = 0 , where $0<\alpha =\frac{\text{odd integer}}{\text{odd integer}}<1$ 0 < α = odd integer odd integer < 1 , $p, \tau >0$ p , τ > 0 , ${}^{C}D_{-}^{\alpha }x(t)=-\Gamma ^{-1}(1-\alpha )\int _{t}^{\infty }(s-t)^{- \alpha }x'(s)\,ds$ D − α C x ( t ) = − Γ − 1 ( 1 − α ) ∫ t ∞ ( s − t ) − α x ′ ( s ) d s . We obtain the conclusion that $$ p^{1/\alpha } \tau >\alpha /e $$ p 1 / α τ > α / e is a sufficient and necessary condition of the oscillations for all solutions of Eq. (*). At the same time, some sufficient conditions are obtained for the oscillations of multiple delays linear fractional differential equation. Several examples are given to illustrate our theorems.

Creativity is the key to obtaining and maintaining competitiveness of modern organizations, and it has attracted much attention from academic circles and management practices. Shared leadership is believed to effectively influence team output. However, research on the impact of individual creativity is still in its infancy. This study adopts the qualitative comparative analysis method, taking 1584 individuals as the research objects, underpinned by a questionnaire-based survey. It investigates the influence of the team’s shared leadership network elements and organizational environmental factors on the individual creativity. We have found that there are six combination of conditions of shared leadership and organizational environmental factors constituting sufficient combination of conditions to increase or decrease individual creativity. Moreover, we have noticed that the low network density of shared leadership is a sufficient and necessary condition of reducing individual creativity. Our results also provide management suggestions for practical activities during the team management.

Abstract Nonlocal game as a witness of the nonlocality of entanglement is of fundamental importance in various fields. The well-known nonlocal games or equivalent linear Bell inequalities are only useful for Bell networks consisting of single entanglement. Our goal in this paper is to propose a unified method for constructing cooperating games in network scenarios. We propose an efficient method to construct multipartite nonlocal games from any graphs. The main idea is the graph representation of entanglement-based quantum networks. We further specify these graphic games with quantum advantages by providing a simple sufficient and necessary condition. The graphic games imply a linear Bell testing of the nonlocality of general quantum networks consisting of EPR states. It also allows generating new instances going beyond CHSH game. These results have interesting applications in quantum networks, Bell theory, computational complexity, and theoretical computer science.

In this paper, we give some new characterizations of g-frames, g-Bessel sequences and g-Riesz bases from their topological properties. By using the Gram matrix associated with the g-Bessel sequence, we present a sufficient and necessary condition under which the sequence is a g-Bessel sequence (or g-Riesz basis). Finally, we consider the excess of a g-frame and obtain some new results.
