Abstract
While the passivity of integer-order systems has been extensively analyzed, recent focus has shifted toward exploring the passivity of fractional-order systems. However, a clear definition of Nabla Fractional Order Systems (NFOSs) has not yet been established. In this work, the concepts of passivity, dissipativity, and finite-gain stability are extended to NFOSs, and relevant theories are proposed. Utilizing nabla fractional calculus and these proposed theories, a passivity-based approach is developed to study distributed optimization in nonlinear multi-agent systems experiencing observational disturbances.
