Opinion Dynamics and Social Power Evolution: A Single-Timescale Model
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors consider a modification of the DeGroot-Friedkin model, in which the opinion formation process takes place on the same timescale as the reflected appraisal process, and provide a comprehensive analysis of the equilibria and convergence properties of the model for the settings of irreducible and reducible influence networks.

Learning Robust Data-based LQG Controllers from Noisy Data
TL;DR: In this paper , a data-based formulation for computing the steady-state Kalman gain is proposed based on semi-definite programming (SDP) using some noise-free input-state-output data.

Contraction Theory for Dynamical Systems on Hilbert Spaces.
TL;DR: This paper establishes the existence of a unique globally exponentially stable equilibrium and provides a novel integral condition for contractivity for time-invariant systems and introduces the notions of partial and semi-contraction.

TL;DR: In this article, series expansions and nonlinear controllability results for Lagrangian systems subject to dissipative forces are presented, based on the affine connection formalism, and on the homogeneity property of all relevant vector fields.

Synchronization of beads on a ring by feedback control
TL;DR: This paper analyzes a discrete-time algorithm to synchronize a group of agents moving back and forth on a ring and guarantees that for a given set of initial conditions, synchrony is asymptotically reached.
