Abstract

We study a Cucker-Smale-type system with time delay in which agents interact with each other through normalized communication weights. We construct a Lyapunov functional for the system and provide sufficient conditions for asymptotic flocking, i.e., convergence to a common velocity vector. We also carry out a rigorous limit passage to the mean-field limit of the particle system as the number of particles tends to infinity. For the resulting Vlasov-type equation we prove the existence, stability and large-time behavior of measure-valued solutions. This is, to our best knowledge, the first such result for a Vlasov-type equation with time delay. We also present numerical simulations of the discrete system with few particles that provide further insights into the flocking and oscillatory behaviors of the particle velocities depending on the size of the time delay.

Figure 1. The system with two particles: Particle velocities $v_1(t)$, $v_2(t)$ as solututions of (30) (left panels) and velocity diameters $d_V(t)$ (right panels, logarithmic scale) for $\tau=0.25$ (first row) and $\tau=1$ (second row). The initial condition is constant, $v_1(t)\equiv 1$, $v_2(t)\equiv -1$ for $t\in[-\tau,0]$

Figure 2. The system with three particles: particle velocities $v_1(t)$, $v_2(t), v_3(t)$ as solutions of (5)–(7) (left panels) and velocity diameters $d_V(t)$ (right panels, logarithmic scale) for $\tau=0.25$ (first row) and $\tau=1$ (second row), with exponentially decaying influence function $\psi(s) = e^{-s}$. The initial condition is in both cases given by (33)–(34)
