contents This paper presents a novel approach to solving the indirect influence problem in networked systems, in which cooperative nodes must regulate a target node with uncertain dynamics to follow a desired trajectory. We leverage the message-passing structure of a graph neural network (GNN), allowing nodes to collectively learn the unknown target dynamics in real time. We develop a novel GNN-based backstepping control strategy with formal stability guarantees derived from a Lyapunov-based analysis. Numerical simulations are included to demonstrate the performance of the developed controller.
