Third-Order Leader-Following Consensus in a Nonlinear Multiagent Network via Impulsive Control

Abstract and Applied Analysis, 2013
Many facts indicate that the impulsive control method is a finer method, which is simple, efficient, and low in cost, for achieving consensus. In this paper, based on graph theory, Lyapunov stability theory, and matrix theory, a novel impulsive control ...

With Habermas against Habermas. Deliberation without Consensus

Journal of Deliberative Democracy, 2019
Habermas’s conception of deliberative democracy combines two concepts—deliberation and consensus—which, I argue, draw his theory in two opposite directions.

Consensus of Second-Order Heterogeneous Hybrid Multiagent Systems via Event-Triggered Protocols

Complexity, 2022
This paper investigates the event-based consensus problem for the heterogeneous hybrid multiagent system (MAS). First, the heterogeneous hybrid MAS is proposed which contains continuous and discrete-time subsystems with second-order and first-order ...

United European Gastroenterology (UEG) and European Society for Neurogastroenterology and Motility (ESNM) consensus on gastroparesis [PDF]

, 2021
Background: Gastroparesis is a condition characterized by epigastric symptoms and delayed gastric emptying (GE) rate in the absence of any mechanical obstruction.

Partial depletion of plasminogen activator inhibitor‐1 decreases subcutaneous fat cell hypertrophy and liver cholesterol in high‐fat‐fed female mice

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Obesity raises blood levels of PAI‐1, a protein linked to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease in people with obesity. In female mice fed a high‐fat diet, partially lowering PAI‐1 led to smaller subcutaneous fat cells and lower liver cholesterol, without changing body weight or insulin sensitivity.

Efficient communication, common knowledge, and consensus [PDF]

, 2007
We study a model of pairwise communication in a finite population of Bayesian agents. We show that, in contrast with claims to the contrary in the existing literature, communication under a fair protocol may not lead to common knowledge of signals. We

Interpreting the Individual Capacitor Voltage Regulation Control of PSC-PWM MMC via Consensus Theory

IEEE Access, 2019
In computer science, consensus theory has been studied for decades. “Consensus” in a multi-agent system means reaching an agreement regarding a certain quantity of interest. The modular multilevel converter (MMC) is a promising topology for

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...
