N2 - The phenomenon of aggregation and dilation(A&D) widely exists in nature. The mechanism behind it is regarded as the effect of some kind of attraction and repulsion(A&R). A&R control becomes a popular and promising way of controlling the structure and distribution of a group composed of several and even numerous individuals. This paper presents the concepts of aggregation, dilation and group evolution criticality based on group variance. We investigate the relationship between different levels of A&D as a foundation for the introduction of A&D analysis. The applications of A&D analysis and A&R control in several researches, including population-based optimization and group behavior control about multi-agent, are given in the form of simulation experiments.
