We show that the complex-valued ODE \begin{equation*} \dot z_t = a_{n+1} z^{n+1} + a_n z^n+\cdots+a_0, \end{equation*} which necessarily has trajectories along which the dynamics blows up in finite time, can be stabilized by the addition of…
We investigate an example of noise-induced stabilization in the plane that was also considered in (Gawedzki, Herzog, Wehr 2010) and (Birrell, Herzog, Wehr 2011). We show that despite the deterministic system not being globally stable, the…
We illustrate a counter-intuitive effect of an additive stochastic force, which acts independently on each element of an ensemble of globally coupled oscillators. We show numerically and semi-analytically that a very small white noise is…
We consider a prototypical nonlinear system which can be stabilized by multiplicative noise: an underdamped non-linear pendulum with a stochastically vibrating pivot. A numerical solution of the pertinent Fokker-Planck equation shows that…
We study the stability of reaction-diffusion equations in presence of noise. The relationship of stability of solutions between the stochastic ordinary different equations and the corresponding stochastic reaction-diffusion equation is…
Under natural assumptions, an unstable equilibrium of a difference equation can be stabilized by a bounded multiplicative noise, identically distributed at each step. This includes stabilization of an otherwise unstable positive equilibrium…
In this second part we prove that the full nonlinear fluid-solid system introduced in Part I is stabilizable by deformations of the solid that have to satisfy nonlinear constraints. Some of these constraints are physical and guarantee the…

Control Lyapunov function is a central tool in stabilization. It generalizes an abstract energy function -- a Lyapunov function -- to the case of controlled systems. It is a known fact that most control Lyapunov functions are non-smooth --…
We study the three dimensional stochastic Zakharov system in the energy space, where the Schr\"odinger equation is driven by linear multiplicative noise and the wave equation is driven by additive noise. We prove the well-posedness of the…
In addition to providing high-profile successes in computer vision and natural language processing, neural networks also provide an emerging set of techniques for scientific problems. Such data-driven models, however, typically ignore…
Integrable non-linear Hamiltonian systems perturbed by additive noise develop a Lyapunov instability, and are hence chaotic, for any amplitude of the perturbation. This phenomenon is related, but distinct, from Taylor's diffusion in…
We apply Prediction-Based control (PBC) in order to stabilize globally a positive equilibrium of a planar Ricker's equation. We construct a closed invariant set in a strictly positive domain for the controlled map and derive conditions on…
This paper considers the problem of finite-time stability for stochastic nonlinear systems. A new Lyapunov theorem of stochastic finite-time stability is proposed, and an important corollary is obtained. Some comparisons with the existing…
In this paper, we report several new geometric and Lyapunov characterizations of incrementally stable systems on Finsler and Riemannian manifolds. A new and intrinsic proof of an important theorem in contraction analysis is given via the…
Stabilization and sufficient conditions for mixing by stochastic transport are shown. More precisely, given a second order linear operator with possibly unstable eigenvalues on a smooth compact Riemannian manifold, it is shown that the…
Lyapunov's theorem provides a fundamental characterization of the stability of dynamical systems. This paper presents a categorical framework for Lyapunov theory, generalizing stability analysis with Lyapunov functions categorically. Core…
We show that perturbing ill-posed differential equations with (potentially very) smooth random processes can restore well-posedness -- even if the perturbation is (potentially much) more regular than the drift component of the solution. The…
Lyapunov's second theorem is an essential tool for stability analysis of differential equations. The paper provides an analog theorem for incremental stability analysis by lifting the Lyapunov function to the tangent bundle. The Lyapunov…
We provide several characterizations of convergence to unstable equilibria in nonlinear systems. Our current contribution is three-fold. First we present simple algebraic conditions for establishing local convergence of non-trivial…
