Cyber attacks pose severe threats on synchronization of multi-agent systems. Deception attack, as a typical type of cyber attack, can bypass the surveillance of the attack detection mechanism silently, resulting in a heavy loss. Therefore, the problem of mean-square bounded synchronization in multi-...
