A protocol was designed to solve consensus with an improved convergence speed achieved by designing protocol gains. The clo6ed-loop multi.agent system converged to an expected type of consensus function, which was divided into four types: zero, non- zero constant vector, bounded trajectories, and ramp trajectories. An algorithm was further provided to construct the protocol gains, which were determined in terms of a classical pole placement algorithm and a modified algebraic Riccati equation. Finally, an example to illustrate the effectiveness of theoretical results was presented.展开更多

Numerical results of solving large-scale highly-indefinite linear systems from various applications demonstrate that these techniques improve the reliability and performance of the hybrid solver and enable efficient solutions of these linear systems on hundreds of processors,which was previously infeasible using existing state-of-the-art solvers.展开更多

By the approach of the discrete functional analysis, the existence and uniqueness of the discrete vector solutions of the nonlinear difference system with intrinsic parallelism are proved. Moreover the unconditional stability of the general difference schemes with intrinsic parallelism justified in the sense of the continuous dependence of the discrete vector solution of the difference schemes on the discrete initial data of the original problems in the discrete W_2^(2,1) (Q△) norms. Finally the convergence of the discrete vector solutions of the certain difference schemes with intrinsic parallelism to the unique generalized solution of the original semilinear parabolic problem is proved.展开更多

Some attractive properties are derived for the residual, whose norm is ξk, of the linear system obtained by the Lanczos method at outer iteration k + 1. Based on them, we make a refined analysis and establish new local convergence results. It is proved that (i) the inexact RQI with Lanezos converges quadratically provided that ξk ≤ξ with a constant ξ≥) 1 and (ii) the method converges linearly provided that ξk is bounded by some multiple of 1/‖τk‖ with ‖τk‖ the residual norm of the approximate eigenpair at outer iteration k. The results are fundamentally different from the existing ones that always require ξk 〈 1, and they have implications on effective implementations of the method. Based on the new theory, we can design practical criteria to control ξk to achieve quadratic convergence and implement the method more effectively than ever before. Numerical experiments confirm our theory and demonstrate that the inexact RQI with Lanczos is competitive to the inexact RQI with MINRES.展开更多

We first show that the solutions of the non-Newtonian fluid system converge to the solutions of the Navier-Stokes system in the energy norm. Then we establish that the global attractors {.Aε^H}0〈≤1 of the non-Newtonian fluid system converge to the global attractor .A0H of the Navier-Stokes system as ε → 0. We also construct the minimal limit A^H min of the H global attractors {Aε^H}0〈ε≤ as ≤→ 0 and prove that A^Hmin iS a strictly invariant and connected set.展开更多
