Non-Euclidean Enriched Contraction Theory for Monotone Operators and Monotone Dynamical Systems
Diego Deplano, Sergio Grammatico, Mauro Franceschelli
We adopt an operator-theoretic perspective to analyze a class of nonlinear fixed-point iterations and discrete-time dynamical systems. Specifically, we study the Krasnoselskij iter…
Algebraic Connectivity Control and Maintenance in Multi-Agent Networks under Attack
Wenjie Zhao, Diego Deplano, Zhiwu Li +2
This paper studies the problem of increasing the connectivity of an ad-hoc peer-to-peer network subject to cyber-attacks targeting the agents in the network. The adopted strategy i…
Novel Stability Conditions for Nonlinear Monotone Systems and Consensus in Multi-Agent Networks
Diego Deplano, Mauro Franceschelli, Alessandro Giua
In this work, we characterize a class of nonlinear monotone dynamical systems that have a certain translation invariance property which goes by the name of plus-homogeneity; usuall…
Multi-Agent Coordination of Thermostatically Controlled Loads by Smart Power Sockets for Electric Demand Side Management
Mauro Franceschelli, Alessandro Pilloni, Andrea Gasparri
This paper presents a multi-agent control architecture and an online optimization method based on dynamic average consensus to coordinate the power consumption of a large populatio…
A Nonlinear Perron-Frobenius Approach for Stability and Consensus of Discrete-Time Multi-Agent Systems
Diego Deplano, Mauro Franceschelli, Alessandro Giua
In this paper we propose a novel method to establish stability and, in addition, convergence to a consensus state for a class of discrete-time Multi-Agent System (MAS) evolving acc…
Stability of Open Multi-Agent Systems and Applications to Dynamic Consensus
Mauro Franceschelli, Paolo Frasca
In this technical note we consider a class of multi-agent network systems that we refer to as Open Multi-Agent Systems (OMAS): in these multi-agent systems, an indefinite number of…
Consensus in multi-agent systems with non-periodic sampled-data exchange and uncertain network topology
Mehran Zareh, Dimos V. Dimarogonas, Mauro Franceschelli +2
In this paper consensus in second-order multi-agent systems with a non-periodic sampled-data exchange among agents is investigated. The sampling is random with bounded inter-sampli…
Consensus in multi-agent systems with second-order dynamics and non-periodic sampled-data exchange
Mehran Zareh, Dimos V. Dimarogonas, Mauro Franceschelli +2
In this paper consensus in second-order multi-agent systems with a non-periodic sampled-data exchange among agents is investigated. The sampling is random with bounded inter-sampli…
Decentralized Estimation of Laplacian Eigenvalues in Multi-Agent Systems
Mauro Franceschelli, Andrea Gasparri, Alessandro Giua +1
In this paper we present a decentralized algorithm to estimate the eigenvalues of the Laplacian matrix that encodes the network topology of a multi-agent system. We consider networ…
