Abstract

We introduce the total s-energy of a multiagent system with time-dependent links. This provides a new analytical perspective on bidirectional agreement dynamics, which we use to bound the convergence rates of dynamical systems for synchronization, flocking, opinion dynamics, and social epistemology.
