Abstract :
Consensus tracking issue is an important and hot topic in the study of distributed coordination control of multiagent systems. For continuous-time second-order multi-agent systems with an active virtual leader and time delays, our paper focuses on its consensus tracking issue by using Lyapunov-Razumikhin theory and Hopf bifurcation theory, respectively. Finally, numerical examples are given to show the effectiveness of our theoretical results.
