Cascade flocking with free-will

Abstract Related Papers Cited by
  • We consider a self-organized system with a hierarchy structure to allow multiple leaders in the highest rank, and with free-will. In the model, we use both Cucker-Smale and Motsch-Tadmor functions for the pair influence of agents, and we derive suffcient conditions for such a system to converge to a flock, where agents ultimately move in the same velocity. We provide examples to show our suffcient conditions are sharp, and we numerically observe that such a self-organized system may have agents moving in different (final) velocities but maintain finite distance from each other due to the free-will.
