In this article, the quasi-consensus problem of the Markovian switching heterogeneous multi-agent system with cooperative–competitive interactions and parameter uncertainties is investigated. The switch of the agent’s dynamics is combined with Markov processes, and the topologies among agents switch between cooperation and competition. Based on graph theory and Lyapunov function theory, the sufficient conditions are given to ensure the quasi-consensus of the Markovian switching multi-agent system. Finally, a numerical simulation is given to illustrate the validity of the theoretical results.
