This paper is concerned with the secure bipartite consensus of second-order multi-agent systems under denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. The communication network is an antagonistic network, in which there is cooperative or competitive relationship between neighboring agents. Meanwhile, information cannot be transmitted when the system is attacked. A novel event-triggered control algorithm based on sampled data is proposed to save limited resources and exclude the Zeno behavior. By applying the convergence of monotone sequences, graph theory as well as the discrete-time Lyapunov function method, some sufficient conditions on threshold parameters, frequency and duration of DoS attacks, and sampling period are derived to ensure the bipartite consensus under DoS attacks. Finally, the correctness and advantages of theoretical results are demonstrated by a numerical simulation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In this paper, the leader-following bipartite consensus is investigated for a group of uncertain multiple Euler–Lagrange systems with disturbances. An innovative adaptive distributed observer is developed without requiring that followers surely acquire the leader's auxiliary state and system matrix. A directed signed network satisfying the principle of structural balance is exploited to describe the interaction among agents. Then a novel bipartite consensus control protocol is proposed to solve the bipartite consensus problem of multiple Euler–Lagrange systems. The theoretical proof is provided via constructing a Lyapunov function and applying Barbalat lemma to analyze the convergence problem. Finally, a numerical simulation is utilized to demonstrate the effectiveness of proposed method. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
