A Second-Order Multi-Agent Network for Bound-Constrained Distributed Optimization
Abstract
This technical note presents a second-order multi-agent network for distributed optimization with a sum of convex objective functions subject to bound constraints. In the multi-agent network, the agents connect each others locally as an undirected graph and know only their own objectives and constraints. The multi-agent network is proved to be able to reach consensus to the optimal solution under mild assumptions. Moreover, the consensus of the multi-agent network is converted to the convergence of a dynamical system, which is proved using the Lyapunov method. Compared with existing multi-agent networks for optimization, the second-order multi-agent network herein is capable of solving more general constrained distributed optimization problems. Simulation results on two numerical examples are presented to substantiate the performance and characteristics of the multi-agent network.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
