In this paper, we consider linear complementarity problems with positive definite matrices through a multi-agent network. We propose a distributed continuous-time algorithm and show its correctness and convergence. Moreover, with the help of Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov lemma and Lyapunov function, we prove its asymptotic convergence. We also present an alternative distributed algorithm in terms of an ordinary differential equation. Finally, we illustrate the effectiveness of our method by simulations....

This paper investigates a distributed solver for non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) over a multi-agent network. After reformulating the problem into the standard distributed optimization form, we design our distributed algorithm (DisNMF) based on the primal-dual method and in the form of multiplicative update rule. With the help of auxiliary functions, we provide monotonic convergence analysis. Furthermore, we show by computational complexity analysis and numerical examples that our distributed...
