This book is among the first to systematically analyze and discuss the Chinese government's 'One Belt, One Road' initiative to promote infrastructure investment and economic development, bringing together a diverse range of scholars from China, Russia, and Eastern Europe. The book assembles a...

Admissible consensus analysis and design problems for high-order linear time-invariant singular swarm systems with time delays and external disturbances are investigated. Firstly, by the state space decomposition, a necessary and sufficient condition for admissible consensus is given and an...

Admissible consensus analysis and consensualizing controller design problems for high-order linear time-invariant singular swarm systems are investigated. Firstly, by projecting the state of a singular swarm system onto a consensus subspace and a complement consensus subspace, a necessary and...

Consensus problems for high-order continuous-time linear time-invariant swarm systems with directed interaction topologies are investigated. A new method to deal with consensus problems is proposed based on state space decomposition. Two subspaces of a complex space are introduced, namely a...

Consensus analysis and design problems for high-order linear time-invariant swarm systems with time-varying delays are dealt with. First, a consensus subspace and a complement consensus subspace are introduced. By the state projection onto the two subspaces, consensus problems are converted into...
