Abstract
In this paper, the controllability problem for multi-agent systems is investigated based on leader-follower structure. We focus on an out-tree topology which leads to minimum information exchange among agents. New necessary and sufficient conditions for the controllability of the system are established. Based on out-trees, controllability of several extended topologies are investigated as well.
