Different from most studied distributed optimization problems with time-invariant objective functions and constraints, the optimal solution in this paper is time varying and forms a trajectory. To minimize the global time-varying objective function subject to time-varying local constraint functions using only local information and local interaction, we present a distributed control algorithm that consists of a sliding-mode part and a Hessian-based optimization part. The asymptotical convergence of the proposed algorithm to the optimal solution is studied under suitable assumptions. The effectiveness of the proposed scheme is demonstrated through a simulation example.","url_abs":"https://arxiv.org/abs/2009.02378v1","url_pdf":"https://arxiv.org/pdf/2009.02378v1.pdf","source":{"archive":"pwc-archive (Hugging Face), CC BY-SA 4.0","snapshot":"2025-07-28","licence_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0/legalcode","row_kind":"links_only","authors_date_abstract":"arXiv metadata, CC0 1.0 (https://info.arxiv.org/help/license), from the Kaggle arXiv metadata snapshot of 2026-09-12"},"code_links":[{"paper_slug":"distributed-continuous-time-optimization-with","repo_url":"https://github.com/star2dust/paper-simulation","is_official":0,"mentioned_in_paper":0,"mentioned_in_github":1,"framework":"none","reach":null}],"tasks":[],"methods":[],"datasets_introduced":[],"methods_introduced":[],"results":[],"syntology":{"atlas_url":null,"mcp":null,"developers":"https://syntology.ai/developers"},"arxiv_metadata":null,"syntology_extracted_results":null}
