Ensuring string stability is critical for the safety and efficiency of large-scale interconnected systems. Although learning-based controllers (e.g., those based on reinforcement learning) have demonstrated strong performance in complex…
We prove the following converse of the passivity theorem. Consider a causal system given by a sum of a linear time-invariant and a passive linear time-varying input-output map. Then, in order to guarantee stability (in the sense of finite…
We consider the problem of on-line evaluation of critical characteristic parameters such as the L_2-gain (L2G), input feedforward passivity index (IFP) and output feedback passivity index (OFP) of non-linear systems using their input-output…
Incremental stability of dynamical systems ensures the convergence of trajectories from different initial conditions towards each other rather than a fixed trajectory or equilibrium point. Here, we introduce and characterize a novel class…

LaSalle techniques to ensure the convergence of a given output usually fail at guaranteeing uniform convergence time, which induces robustness issues. Recent works have provided extra conditions under which a Lyapunov function that…

This paper introduces and studies the notion of output-input stability, which represents a variant of the minimum-phase property for general smooth nonlinear control systems. The definition of output-input stability does not rely on a…
We study an extended system that without noise shows a spatially homogeneous state, but when submitted to an adequate multiplicative noise, some "noise-induced patterns" arise. The stochastic resonance between these structures is…
It is known that input-output approaches based on scaled small-gain theorems with constant $D$-scalings and integral linear constraints are non-conservative for the analysis of some classes of linear positive systems interconnected with…
Traditional synchronous generators with rotational inertia are being replaced by low-inertia renewable energy resources (RESs) in many power grids and operational scenarios. Due to emerging market mechanisms, inherent variability of RESs,…
In a power grid with growing penetrations of renewable energy sources, inverters play a larger role in the dynamic interactions among network components. However, much is yet to be studied regarding inverter-dominated grid stability. This…
