Abstract
The convergent equilibrium of flocking agents is vital importance for their collective behavior, where flock guiding of hybrid agents, which are composed by both first and second order agents, can only be boiled down to the root node agents, is touched upon here. Both the theoretical analysis and the simulation results are provided to verify the suggested scheme.
