Abstract
<abstract><p>This paper considers the distributed tracking control problem for a class of nonlinear multi-agent systems with nonlinearly parameterized control coefficients and inherent nonlinearities. The essential of multi-agent systems makes it difficult to directly generalize the existing works for single nonlinearly parameterized systems with uncontrollable unstable linearization to the case in this paper. To dominate the inherent nonlinearities and nonlinear parametric uncertainties, a powerful distributed adaptive tracking control is presented by combing the algebra graph theory with the distributed backstepping method, which guarantees that all the closed-loop system signals are global bounded while the range of the tracking error between the follower's output and the leader's output can be tuned arbitrarily small. Finally, a numerical example is provided to verify the validity of the developed methods.</p></abstract>
