An Overview of Recent Progress in the Study of Distributed Multi-Agent Coordination (2012, background): “As a direct extension of the study of the consensus problem for systems with simple dynamics, for example, with single-integrator kinematics or double-integrator dynam ics, consensus with general linear dynamics was also studied recently [52]–[57], where research is mainly devoted to finding feedbac”

Consensus of a Class of Second-Order Multi-Agent Systems With Time-Delay and Jointly-Connected Topologies (2010, methodology): “Remark 2: To analyze the stability of multi-agent systems, there are many other possible approaches such as the Lyapunov-based approaches [5], [6], [11], [15], [16] and the approaches based on the properties of matrices [2]–[4], [7]–[10], [21].”
Necessary and Sufficient Conditions for Consensusability of Linear Multi-Agent Systems (2010, background): “When the dynamic structures of all the agents are fixed, one can investigate the relationship between the consensusability and the communication topology, such as in [3], [4], [9], [10], etc.”
Multi-agent consensus algorithm with obstacle avoidance via optimal control approach (2010, background): “It was then extended to the design of consensus algorithms for networked double-integrator systems and some particular networked nonlinear systems under fixed topology and switching topology (Ren 2007 ; Ren and Atkins 2007 ; Dong and Farrell 2008a , b ; Qu, Wang, and Hull 2008 ).”
