This paper addresses the problem of distributed control for leader-follower multi-agent systems under prescribed performance guarantees. Leader-follower is meant in the sense that a group of agents with external inputs are selected as leaders in order to drive the group of followers in a way that the entire system can achieve consensus within certain prescribed performance transient bounds. Under the assumption of tree graphs, a distributed control law is proposed when the decay rate of the performance functions is within a sufficient bound. Then, two classes of tree graphs that can have additional followers are investigated. Finally, several simulation examples are given to illustrate the results.
