In this paper, we consider the numerical solution of a large complex linear system with a saddle-point form obtained by the discretization of the time-harmonic eddy-current optimal control problem. A new Schur complement is proposed for this algebraic system, extending it to both the block-triangular preconditioner and the structured preconditioner. A theoretical analysis proves that the eigenvalues of block-triangular and structured preconditioned matrices are located in the interval [1/2, 1]. Numerical simulations show that two new preconditioners coupled with a Krylov subspace acceleration have good feasibility and effectiveness and are superior to some existing efficient algorithms.

In this paper, the asymptotic consensus control of multi-agent systems with general linear agent dynamics is investigated. A neighbor-based adaptive event-triggering strategy with a dynamic triggering threshold is proposed, which leads to a fully distributed control of the multi-agent system, depending only on the states of the neighboring agents at triggering moments. By using the Lyapunov method, we prove that the states of the agents converge asymptotically. In addition, the proposed event-triggering strategy is proven to exclude Zeno behavior. The numerical simulation results illustrate that the agent states achieve consensus in sense of asymptotic convergence. Furthermore, the proposed strategy is shown to be scalable in case of variable agent numbers. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
