PDα‐type distributed learning control for nonlinear fractional‐order multiagent systems

This paper considers the consensus tacking problem for nonlinear fractional‐order multiagent systems by presenting a PD^α‐type iterative learning control update law with initial learning mechanisms. The asymptotical convergence of the proposed distributed learning algorithm is strictly proved by using the properties of fractional calculus. A sufficient condition is derived to guarantee the whole multiagent system achieving an asymptotic output consensus. An illustrative example is given to verify the theoretical results.     

An efficient iterative method for finding common fixed point and variational inequalities in Hilbert spaces

ABSTRACT

In this paper, we investigate the problem of finding a common solution to a fixed point problem involving demi-contractive operator and a variational inequality with monotone and Lipschitz continuous mapping in real Hilbert spaces. Inspired by the projection and contraction method and the hybrid descent approximation method, a new and efficient iterative method for solving the problem is introduced. Strong convergence theorem of the proposed method is established under standard and mild conditions. Our scheme generalizes and extends some of the existing results in the literature, and moreover, its computational effort is less per each iteration compared with related works.     

Fixed points of multivalued quasi-nonexpansive mappings using a faster iterative process

In this article, we prove some strong and weak convergence theorems for quasi-nonexpansive multivalued mappings in Banach spaces. The iterative process used is independent of Ishikawa iterative process and converges faster. Some examples are provided to validate our results. Our results extend and unify some results in the contemporary literature.

Asymptotic analysis for multi-objective sequential stochastic assignment problems

ABSTRACT

We provide an asymptotic analysis of multi-objective sequential stochastic assignment problems (MOSSAP). In MOSSAP, a fixed number of tasks arrive sequentially, with an n-dimensional value vector revealed upon arrival. Each task is assigned to one of a group of known workers immediately upon arrival, with the reward given by an n-dimensional product-form vector. The objective is to maximize each component of the expected reward vector. We provide expressions for the asymptotic expected reward per task for each component of the reward vector and compare the convergence rates for three classes of Pareto optimal policies.
