Distributed Vector Assembly via Selector-Anchored Diffusion with Local Innovation

RESUMO

We introduce Selector-Anchored Diffusion with Local Innovation (D+LI), a distributed vector-assembly primitive that constructs complete local replicas from independently owned authoritative blocks. Orthogonal selectors preserve block identity, local innovation anchors each owner's contribution, and Laplacian diffusion propagates these contributions across the network. We show that pure averaging with raw additive selector sources cannot isolate this replica. The D+LI error operator decomposes coordinatewise as the identity minus an owner-grounded Laplacian, yielding global contraction with a factor independent of the total and block dimensions. For time-varying outer targets, we establish a finite-T input-to-state stability (ISS) bound and a self-consistent estimator-controller gain condition for Lipschitz coordination maps, including non-potential ones. For semi-algebraic potential problems, we prove Kurdyka-Lojasiewicz (KL) finite-length convergence of the coupled decision-assembly iteration with a fixed finite communication budget per outer iteration under explicit timescale-separation conditions. Three numerical experiments demonstrate contraction tightness and finite-horizon tracking, verify an admissible KL timescale, and illustrate discrete and non-potential outer maps.
