Abstract: Communication network could suffer uncertainties originating from link faults and network attacks. This situation, in multi-agent systems, can be featured by unknown weights of network topology. To impair the influence of the uncertain topology, typical compensation should be taken into account in distributed protocols to the workability of multi-agent systems. This paper, in the context of uncertain topology, addresses finite-time leader-following consensus for second-order uncertain nonlinear multi-agent systems. In addition to uncertainties in topology, the systems also allow unknown control coefficients, which together with the unknown weights renders the realisation of finite-time leader-following consensus nontrivial. Specifically, a fully distributed protocol based on distributed finite-time observer is designed via integrating the adaptive compensation scheme. Notably, in the designed protocol, dynamic high gains are introduced for the compensations of the network uncertainties and agents uncertainties. It turns out that the designed fully distributed protocol guarantees the global finite-time leader-following consensus. Simulation examples are provided to illustrate the validity of the proposed approach.
