This paper studies the multiconsensus problem of multiagent networks based on sampled data information via the pulse-modulated intermittent control (PMIC) which is a general control framework unifying impulsive control, intermittent control, and sampling control. Two kinds of multiconsensus, including stationary multiconsensus and dynamic multiconsensus of multiagent networks, are taken into consideration in such control framework. Based on the eigenvalue analysis and algebraic graph theory, some necessary and sufficient conditions on the feedback gains and the control period are established to ensure the multiconsensus. Finally, several simulation results are included to show the theoretical results.

Time-varying formation-containment problems for a second-order multiagent system (SOMAS) are studied via pulse-modulated intermittent control (PMIC) in this paper. A distributed control framework utilizing the neighbors’ positions and velocities is designed so that leaders in the multiagent system form a formation, and followers move to the convex hull formed by each leader. Different from the traditional formation-containment problems, this paper applies the PMIC framework, which is more common and more in line with the actual control scenarios. Based on the knowledge of matrix theory, algebraic graph theory, and stability theory, some sufficient conditions are given for the time-varying formation-containment problem of the second-order multiagent system. Some numerical simulations are proposed to verify the effectiveness of the results presented in this paper.

This paper studies impulsive control systems with finite and infinite delays. Several stability criteria are established by employing the largest and smallest eigenvalue of matrix. Our sufficient conditions are less restrictive than the ones in the earlier literature. Moreover, it is shown that by using impulsive control, the delay systems can be stabilized even if it contains no stable matrix. Finally, some numerical examples are discussed to illustrate the theoretical results.

In this letter, we investigate the sampled-data state feedback control (SDSFC) problem of Boolean control networks (BCNs). Some necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for the global stabilization of BCNs by SDSFC. Different from conventional state feedback controls, new phenomena observed the study of SDSFC. Based on the controllability matrix, we derive some necessary and sufficient conditions under which the trajectories of BCNs can be stabilized to a fixed point by piecewise constant control (PCC). It is proved that the global stabilization of BCNs under SDSFC is equivalent to that by PCC. Moreover, algorithms are given to construct the sampled-data state feedback controllers. Numerical examples are given to illustrate the efficiency of the obtained results.

In this paper, we study the dynamical behavior of a prey-dependent digestive model with a state-dependent impulsive effect. Using the Poincaré map and the Lambert W-function, we find the analytical expression of discrete mapping. Sufficient conditions are established for transcritical bifurcation and period-doubling bifurcation through an analytical method. Exact locations of these bifurcations are explored. Numerical simulations of an example are illustrated which agree well with our theoretical results.

The formation-containment control problems of sampled-data second-order multi-agent systems with sampling delay are studied. In this paper, we assume that there exist interactions among leaders and that the leader’s neighbours are only leaders. Firstly, two different control protocols with sampling delay are presented for followers and leaders, respectively. Then, by utilizing the algebraic graph theory and matrix theory, several sufficient conditions are obtained to ensure that the leaders achieve a desired formation and that the states of the followers converge to the convex hull formed by the states of the leaders, i.e. the multi-agent systems achieve formation containment. Furthermore, an explicit expression of the formation position function is derived for each leader. An algorithm is provided to design the gain parameters in the protocols. Finally, a numerical example is given to illustrate the effectiveness of the obtained theoretical results.

AbstractIn this paper, we investigate the dynamical behaviors of a fractional-order predator–prey with Holling type IV functional response and its discretized counterpart. First, we seek the local stability of equilibria for the fractional-order model. Also, the necessary and sufficient conditions of the stability of the discretized model are achieved. Bifurcation types (include transcritical, flip and Neimark–Sacker) and chaos are discussed in the discretized system. Finally, numerical simulations are executed to assure the validity of the obtained theoretical results.

In this paper, a new kind of intermittent control is proposed to study consensus problems of multi-agent systems with second-order dynamics. In particular, we consider the case that the information transmission occurs at sampling instants and the velocity information is not available for feedback. The proposed control only regulates the velocity of agents in a given sequence of disconnected time intervals, called activated intervals, after sampling instants. Remarkably, both the sampling and activated intervals are not required to be identical. By adopting algebraic graph theory and nonnegative matrix, some sufficient conditions are obtained for guaranteeing the consensus of the multi-agent systems under the switching topology. Finally, the numerical examples are included to illustrate the theoretical results.

The multiconsensus problem of first-order multiagent systems with directed topologies is studied. A novel consensus problem is introduced in multiagent systems — multiconsensus. The states of multiple agents in each subnetwork asymptotically converge to an individual consistent value in the presence of information exchanges among subnetworks. Linear multiconsensus protocols are proposed to solve the multiconsensus problem, and the matrix corresponding to the protocol is designed. Necessary and sufficient conditions are derived based on matrix theory, under which the stationary multiconsensus and dynamic multiconsensus can be reached. Simulations are provided to demonstrate the effectiveness of the theoretical results.
