Now we would like to point out the case of undirected topology with symmetric adjacency
matrix U If we assume A and BC being symmetric, then A gis symmetric with real eigenvalue.Moreover from the field value property (Horn R.A & Johnson C.R., 1995), letσ(A ) = { α j }and
σ(BC ) = { ν j } the eigenvalues set of A and BC, then the eigenvalues of A+μ i BC are in the
interval [minj { α j } + μ iminj { ν j }, maxj { α j } + μ imaxj { ν j }], for every 1≤ i ≤ n , 1 ≤ j ≤ m.
In this way, there is a bound need to be satisfied by the topology structure, node dynamic andcoupling matrix for MAS stabilization
Trang 3In the literature, the MAS consensuability results have been given in terms of Laplacianmatrix properties Here, differently, we have given bounds as function of the adjacencymatrix features Anyway we can use the results on the Laplacian eigenvalue for recasting
the bounds given on the adjacency matrix To this aim, defined the degree d i of i-th node of
an undirected graph as∑j u ij , the Laplacian matrix is defined as L = D − U with D is the diagonal matrix with the degree of node i-th in position i-th Clearly L is a zero row sums
matrix with non-positive off-diagonal elements It has at least one zero eigenvalue and all
nonzero eigenvalues have nonnegative real parts So U=D − L and being the minimum and
maximum Laplacian eigenvalues respectively bounded by 0 and the highest node degree, wehave:
Lemma 2 Let U the adjacency matrix of undirected and connected graph G= (V, E, U), witheigenvaluesμ1≤ μ2≤ .≤ μ n, then results:
topology (p=0), by increasing the probability p of rewiring the links, it is possible smoothly
to change its topology into a random one (p = 1), with small world typically occurring atsome intermediate value In so doing neither the number of nodes nor the overall number ofedges is changed In Fig 1 it shown the results in the case of MAS of 20 nodes with each one
having k=4 neighbors
Among the simulation results we focus our attention on the maximum and minimum
eigenvalues of the matrixes U (i.e μ n andμ1) and A g (i.e.λ M and λ m) and their boundscomputed by using the results of the previous section In particular, by Lemma 2, we convey
the bounds on U eigenvalues in bounds on A geigenvalues suitable for the case of time varying
topology structure We assume in the simulations the matrices A and BC to be symmetric In this way, if U eigenvalues are in[v1, v2], letσ(A ) = { α i },σ(BC ) = { ν i } , the eigenvalues of Ag
will be in the interval [min
i α i+min
j { v1ν j , v2 ν j }, max
i α i+max
j { v1ν j , v2 ν j } ] for i, j=1, 2, , n.
Notice that, known the interval of variation[v1, v2]of the eigenvalues set of U under switching
topologies, we can recast the conditions (8), (9), (12), (13), (6), (7) and to use it for designpurpose Specifically, given the interval[v1, v2]associated to the topology possible variations,
we derive conditions on A or BC for MAS consensuability.
We consider a graph of n=400 and k=4 In the evolving network simulations, we started
with k=4 and bounded it to the order of O(log(n))for setting a sparse graph In Tab 1 aredrawn the node dynamic and coupling matrices considered in the first set of simulations

In the case 1 (Fig 2), we note as although we start from a stable MAS network, the topologyvariation leads the network instability condition (namelyλ Mbecomes positive) In Fig 3 it isshown the time state evolution of the firsts 10 nodes, under the switching frequency of 1 Hz
We note as the MAS converges to the consensus state till it is stable, then goes in instabilitycondition
In the case 2, we consider a node dynamic faster than the maximum network degree d Mofall evolving network topologies from compete to random graph Notice that although thisassures MAS consensuability as drawn in Fig 4, it can be much conservative
In the case 3 (Fig 5), we consider a slower node dynamic than the cases 2 The MAS is robuststable under topology variations In Fig 6 the state dynamic evolution is convergent and thesettling time is about 4.6/| λ M(A g )|
Then we have varied the value for BC by doubling the B matrix value leaving unchanged the
node dynamic matrix As appears in Fig 7, the MAS goes in instability condition pointing out

On the other side, a reduction on BC increases the MAS stability margin So we can tune the BC value in order to guarantee stability or desired robust stability MAS margin under a specified node dynamic and topology network variations Indeed if BC has eigenvalues above
1, its effect is to amplify the eigenvalues of U and we need a faster node dynamic for assessing MAS stability If BC has eigenvalues less of 1, its effect is of attenuation and the node dynamic
can be slower without affecting the network stability
Now we consider SISO system of second order at the node as shown in Tab.2 In this case the
matrix BC has one zero eigenvalue being the rows linearly dependent.
In the case 5 the eigenvalues of A are α1 = −4.76 andα2 = −13.23, the eigenvalues of the
coupling matrix BC are ν1=1 andν2=0 In this case the node dynamic is sufficiently fast forguaranteeing MAS consensuability (Fig 8) In the case 6, we reduce the node dynamic matrix

Now we deal with the case of node fault We can state the following Theorem
Theorem 2 Let A and BC symmetric matrix and G(V, E, U)an undirected graph If the MAS
system described by A gis stable, it is stable also in the presence of node faults Moreover theMAS dynamic becomes faster after the node fault
Proof Being the graph undirected and A and BC symmetric then A gis symmetric Let ˜A gtheMAS dynamic matrix associated to the network after a node fault ˜A g is obtained from A gbyeliminating the rows and columns corresponding to the nodes went down So ˜A gis a minor of

the slowest dynamic of the system ˙x(t) =A˜g x(t)is faster than the system ˙x(t) =A g x(t)
In the follows we will show the eigenvalues of MAS dynamic in the presence of node fault
We consider MAS network with n= 100 We compare for each evolving network topology
at each time simulation step, the maximum and minimum eigenvalues of A gthan those ones
resulting with the fault of randomly chosen l nodes Figures 11 and 12 show the eigenvalues
of system dynamic for the cases l=1 and l=50
Notice that as the eigenvalues of U and A g of fault network are inside the real interval

5 Conclusions
In this book chapter we have investigated the consensuability of the MASs under both thedynamic agent structure and communication topology variations Specifically, it has givenconsensusability conditions of linear MASs as function of the agent dynamic structure,communication topology and coupling strength parameters The theoretical results are given
by transferring the consensusability problem to the stability analysis of LTI-MASs Moreover,
it is shown that the interplay among consensusability, node dynamic and topology must
be taken into account for MASs stabilization: consensuability of MASs is assessed forall topologies, dynamic and coupling strength satisfying a pre-specified bound From thepractical point of view the consensuability conditions can be used for both the analysisand planning of MASs protocols to guarantee robust stability for a wide range of possibleinterconnection topologies, coupling strength and node dynamics Also, the consensuability

1 Introduction
The aim of this chapter is to present several interesting connections between the input-outputstability properties and the stabilizability and detectability of variational control systems,proposing a new perspective concerning the interference of the interpolation methods incontrol theory and extending the applicability area of the input-output methods in the stabilitytheory
Indeed, let X be a Banach space, let(Θ, d)be a locally compact metric space and letE = X ×Θ
We denote byB( X)the Banach algebra of all bounded linear operators on X If Y, U are two
Banach spaces, we denote byB( U, Y)the space of all bounded linear operators from U into Y
and byC s(Θ,B( U, Y))the space of all continuous bounded mappings H :Θ→ B( U, Y) Withrespect to the norm||| H |||:=sup
θ∈Θ || H(θ )||,C s(Θ,B( U, Y))is a Banach space
If H ∈ C s(Θ,B( U, Y))and Q ∈ C s(Θ,B( Y, Z))we denote by QH the mappingΘ θ →
Q(θ)H(θ) It is obvious that QH ∈ C s(Θ,B( U, Z))
Definition 1.1. Let J ∈ {R+,R} A continuous mappingσ : Θ × J → Θ is called a flow on Θ
ifσ(θ, 0) =θ and σ(θ, s+t) =σ(σ(θ, s), t), for all(θ, s, t ) ∈Θ× J2
Definition 1.2. A pairπ = (Φ, σ)is called a linear skew-product flow on E = X × Θ if σ is a
flow onΘ and Φ : Θ×R+→ B( X)satisfies the following conditions:
(i)Φ(θ, 0) =I d , the identity operator on X, for all θ ∈Θ;
(ii)Φ(θ, t+s) =Φ(σ(θ, t), s)Φ(θ, t), for all(θ, t, s ) ∈Θ×R2
+(the cocycle identity);
(iii)(θ, t ) →Φ(θ, t)x is continuous, for every x ∈ X;
(iv) there are M ≥1 andω >0 such that||Φ(θ, t )|| ≤ Me ωt, for all(θ, t ) ∈Θ×R+
The mappingΦ is called the cocycle associated to the linear skew-product flow π= (Φ, σ)
Let L1

Letπ = (Φ, σ)be a linear skew-product flow onE = X ×Θ We consider the variationalintegral system

Definition 1.3. The system(S )is said to be uniformly exponentially stable if there are N, ν >0such that
|| x θ(t; x0, 0)|| ≤ Ne −νt || x0||, ∀( θ, t ) ∈Θ×R+,∀ x0∈ X.
Remark 1.4. It is easily seen that the system(S )is uniformly exponentially stable if and only
if there are N, ν >0 such that||Φ(θ, t )|| ≤ Ne −νt, for all(θ, t ) ∈Θ×R+
Ifπ = (Φ, σ)is a linear skew-product flow onE = X × Θ and P ∈ C s(Θ,B( X)), then thereexists a unique linear skew-product flow denoted π P = (ΦP,σ) on X ×Θ such that thissatisfies the variation of constants formula:

Let U, Y be two Banach spaces, let B ∈ C s(Θ,B( U, X))and C ∈ C s(Θ,B( X, Y)) We considerthe variational control system(π, B, C)described by the following integral model
by stabilizability and detectability as follows:
Definition 1.5. The system(π, B, C)is said to be:
(i) stabilizable if there exists a mapping F ∈ C s(Θ,B( X, U))such that the system(S BF)isuniformly exponentially stable;
(ii) detectable if there exists a mapping K ∈ C s(Θ,B( Y, X))such that the system (S KC)isuniformly exponentially stable
Trang 17Remark 1.6. (i) The system(π, B, C)is stabilizable if and only if there exists a mapping F ∈
C s(Θ,B( X, U))and two constants N, ν >0 such that the perturbed linear skew-product flow

||ΦBF(θ, t )|| ≤ Ne −νt, ∀( θ, t ) ∈Θ×R+;(ii) The system(π, B, C)is detectable if and only if there exists a mapping K ∈ C s(Θ,B( Y, X))
and two constants N, ν >0 such that the perturbed linear skew-product flowπ KC= (ΦKC,σ)has the property
A special application of our main results will be the study of the connections betweenthe exponential stability and the stabilizability and detectability of nonautonomous controlsystems in infinite dimensional spaces The nonautonomous case treated in this chapter willinclude as consequences many interesting situations among which we mention the resultsobtained by Clark, Latushkin, Montgomery-Smith and Randolph (see (Clark et al., 2000))and the authors (see (Sasu & Sasu, 2004)) concerning the connections between stabilizability,detectability and exponential stability
2 Preliminaries on Banach function spaces and auxiliary results
In what follows we recall several fundamental properties of Banach function spaces and weintroduce the main tools of our investigation Indeed, letM(R+,R)be the linear space of all
Lebesgue measurable functions u :R+→R, identifying the functions equal a.e.
Definition 2.1. A linear subspace B of M(R+,R)is called a normed function space, if there is a
mapping| · | B : B →R+such that:
(i ) | u | B=0 if and only if u=0 a.e.;
(ii ) | αu | B = | α | | u | B, for all(α, u ) ∈R× B;
(iii ) | u+v | B ≤ | u | B + | v | B , for all u, v ∈ B;
(iv)if| u(t )| ≤ | v(t )| a.e t ∈R+and v ∈ B, then u ∈ B and | u | B ≤ | v | B
If(B, | · | B)is complete, then B is called a Banach function space.
Remark 2.2. If(B, | · | B)is a Banach function space and u ∈ B then | u (· )| ∈ B.
A remarkable class of Banach function spaces is represented by the translations invariantspaces These spaces have a special role in the study of the asymptotic properties of thedynamical systems using control type techniques (see Sasu (2008), Sasu & Sasu (2004))

On Stabilizability and Detectability of Variational Control Systems
Trang 18Definition 2.3. A Banach function space(B, | · | B)is said to be invariant to translations if for every u :R+→ R and every t > 0, u ∈ B if and only if the function
Let C c(R+,R)denote the linear space of all continuous functions v :R+ →R with compact
support contained inR+ and let L1loc(R+,R)denote the linear space of all locally integrable
functions u :R+→R.
We denote by T (R+) the class of all Banach function spaces B which are invariant to
translations and satisfy the following properties:
(i) C c(R+,R) ⊂ B ⊂ L1loc(R+,R);
(ii) if B \ L1(R+,R ∅ then there is a continuous function δ ∈ B \ L1(R+,R)
For every A ⊂R+we denote byχ A the characteristic function of the set A.
Remark 2.4. (i) If B ∈ T (R+), thenχ [0,t) ∈ B, for all t >0
(ii) Let B ∈ T (R+), u ∈ B and t >0 Then, the function ˜u t:R+→ R, ˜ut(s) =u(s+t)belongs
to B and | u˜t | B ≤ | u | B(see (Sasu, 2008), Lemma 5.4)
Definition 2.5. (i) Let u, v ∈ M(R+,R) We say that u and v are equimeasurable if for every
t >0 the sets{ s ∈R+:| u(s )| > t }and{ s ∈R+:| v(s )| > t }have the same measure.(ii) A Banach function space(B, | · | B)is rearrangement invariant if for every equimeasurable functions u, v :R+→R+with u ∈ B we have that v ∈ B and | u | B = | v | B
We denote by R(R+) the class of all Banach function spaces B ∈ T (R+) which arerearrangement invariant
A remarkable class of rearrangement invariant function spaces is represented by the so-called
Orlicz spaces which are introduced in the following remark:
Remark 2.6. Let ϕ : R+ → R+ be a non-decreasing left-continuous function, which isnot identically zero on(0,∞) The Young function associated with ϕ is defined by Y ϕ(t) =
t
0ϕ(s) ds For every u ∈ M(R+,R) let M ϕ(u) := 0∞Y ϕ (| u(s )|) ds The set O ϕ of all
u ∈ M(R+,R)with the property that there is k > 0 such that M ϕ(ku ) < ∞, is a linearspace With respect to the norm| u | ϕ := inf{ k > 0 : M ϕ(u/k ) ≤ 1} , O ϕ is a Banach space,
called the Orlicz space associated with ϕ.
The Orlicz spaces are rearrangement invariant (see (Bennet & Sharpley, 1988), Theorem 8.9)
Moreover, it is well known that, for every p ∈ [1,∞], the space L p(R+,R)is a particular case
of Orlicz space
Let now (X, || · ||) be a real or complex Banach space For every B ∈ T (R+) we denote
by B(R+, X), the linear space of all Bochner measurable functions u : R+ → X with the property that the mapping N u:R+→R+, Nu(t ) = || u(t )|| lies in B Endowed with the norm
|| u || B(R+,X):= | N u | B , B(R+, X)is a Banach space
Let(Θ, d)be a metric space and letE = X × Θ Let π= (Φ, σ)be a linear skew-product flow
onE = X ×Θ We consider the variational integral system
(S ) x θ(t; x0, u) =Φ(θ, t)x0+t
0 Φ(σ(θ, s), t − s)u(s)ds, t ≥0,θ ∈Θ
Trang 19with u ∈ L1loc(R+, X)and x0∈ X.
An important stability concept related with the asymptotic behavior of dynamical systems isdescribed by the following concept:
Definition 2.7. Let W ∈ T (R+) The system (S ) is said to be completely (W(R+, X),
W(R+, X))-stable if the following assertions hold:
(i) for every u ∈ W(R+, X)and everyθ ∈ Θ the solution x θ (· ; 0, u ) ∈ W(R+, X);
(ii) there isλ >0 such that|| x θ (· ; 0, u )|| W(R+,X) ≤ λ || u || W(R+,X), for all(u, θ ) ∈ W(R+, X ) ×

A characterization of uniform exponential stability of variational systems in terms of thecomplete stability of a pair of function spaces has been obtained in (Sasu, 2008) (see Corollary3.19) and this is given by:
Theorem 2.8. Let W ∈ R(R+) The system(S )is uniformly exponentially stable if and only if
(S )is completely(W(R+, X), W(R+, X))-stable.
The problem can be also treated in the setting of the continuous functions Indeed, let
C b(R+,R)be the space of all bounded continuous functions u : R+ → R Let C0(R+,R)
be the space of all continuous functions u :R+→R with lim
t→∞ u(t) =0 and let C00(R+,R):=
{ u ∈ C0(R+,R): u(0) =0}
Definition 2.9. Let V ∈ { C b(R+,R), C0(R+,R), C00(R+,R)} The system(S )is said to be
completely(V(R+, X), V(R+, X))-stable if the following assertions hold:
(i) for every u ∈ V(R+, X)and everyθ ∈ Θ the solution x θ (· ; 0, u ) ∈ V(R+, X);
(ii) there isλ >0 such that|| x θ (· ; 0, u )|| V(R+,X) ≤ λ || u || V(R+,X), for all(u, θ ) ∈ V(R+, X) ×Θ.For the proof of the next result we refer to Corollary 3.24 in (Sasu, 2008) or, alternatively, toTheorem 5.1 in (Megan et al., 2005)
Theorem 2.10. Let V ∈ { C b(R+,R), C0(R+,R), C00(R+,R)} The system(S ) is uniformly exponentially stable if and only if(S )is completely(V(R+, X), V(R+, X))-stable.
Remark 2.11. Let W ∈ R(R+) ∪ { C0(R+, X), C00(R+, X), C b(R+, X )} If the system(S )isuniformly exponentially stable then for everyθ ∈Θ the linear operator
P W θ : W(R+, X) → W(R+, X), (P W θ u)(t) =t
0 Φ(σ(θ, s), t − s)u(s)ds
is correctly defined and bounded Moreover, ifλ >0 is given by Definition 2.7 or respectively
by Definition 2.9, then we have that supθ∈Θ || P W θ || ≤ λ.
These results have several interesting applications in control theory among we mention thoseconcerning the robustness problems (see (Sasu, 2008)) which lead to an inedit estimation ofthe lower bound of the stability radius, as well as to the study of the connections betweenstability and stabilizability and detectability of associated control systems, as we will see inwhat follows It worth mentioning that these aspects were studied for the very first time forthe case of systems associated to evolution operators in (Clark et al., 2000) and were extendedfor linear skew-product flows in (Megan et al., 2002)

Trang 203 Stabilizability and detectability of variational control systems
As stated from the very beginning, in this section our attention will focus on the connections
between stabilizability, detectability and the uniform exponential stability Let X be a Banach
space, let(Θ, d)be a metric space and letπ = (Φ, σ)be a linear skew-product flow onE =
X ×Θ We consider the variational integral system
where t ≥0,(x0,θ ) ∈ E and u ∈ L1loc(R+, U)
According to Definition 1.5 it is obvious that if the system(S )is uniformly exponentiallystable, then the control system(π, B, C)is stabilizable (via the trivial feedback F ≡ 0) and
this is also detectable (via the trivial feedback K ≡0) The natural question arises whether theconverse implication holds
Example 3.1. Let X = R, Θ = R and let σ(θ, t) = θ+t Let(S )be a variational integralsystem such thatΦ(θ, t) = I d (the identity operator on X), for all(θ, t ) ∈ Θ×R+ Let U =
Y=X and let B(θ) =C(θ) = I d, for allθ ∈ Θ Let δ > 0 By considering F(θ ) = − δ I d, for all
θ ∈Θ, from relation (1.1), we obtain that
ΦBF(θ, t)x=x − δt
0 ΦBF(θ, s)x ds, ∀ t ≥0for every(x, θ ) ∈ E This implies thatΦBF(θ, t)x = e −δt x, for all t ≥ 0 and all (x, θ ) ∈ E,
so the perturbed system(S BF)is uniformly exponentially stable This shows that the system(π, B, C)is stabilizable
Similarly, ifδ > 0, for K(θ ) = − δ I d, for all θ ∈ Θ, we deduce that the variational controlsystem(π, B, C)is also detectable
In conclusion, the variational control system(π, B, C)is both stabilizable and detectable, butfor all that, the variational integral system(S )is not uniformly exponentially stable
It follows that the stabilizability or/and the detectability of the control system(π, B, C)arenot sufficient conditions for the uniform exponential stability of the system(S ) Naturally,additional hypotheses are required In what follows we shall prove that certain input-outputconditions assure a complete resolution to this problem The answer will be given employingnew methods based on function spaces techniques
Indeed, for everyθ ∈Θ, we define
P θ : L1loc(R+, X) → L1loc(R+, X), (P θ w)(t) =t
0 Φ(σ(θ, s), t − s)w(s)ds
