description This paper studies the continuous Cucker–Smale model with time-varying topological structures and reaction-type delay. The goal of this paper is to establish a sufficient framework for flocking behaviors. Our method combines strict Lyapunov design with the derivation of an appropriate persistence condition for multi-agent systems. First, to prove that position fluctuations are uniformly bounded, a strict and trajectory-dependent Lyapunov functional is constructed via reparametrization of the time variable. Then, by constructing a global Lyapunov functional and using a novel backward-forward estimate, it is deduced that velocity fluctuations converge to zero. Finally, flocking behaviors are analyzed separately in terms of time delays and communication failures.
