We prove that impulsive systems, which possess an ISS Lyapunov function, are ISS for time sequences satisfying the fixed dwell-time condition. If an ISS Lyapunov function is the exponential one, we provide a stronger result, which…
Since the concept of input-to-state stability (ISS) was introduced, it has been extensively investigated for finite-dimensional control systems and has recently received attention for infinite-dimensional systems. While numerical techniques…
In this paper ISS small-gain theorems for discrete-time systems are stated, which do not require input-to-state stability (ISS) of each subsystem. This approach weakens conservatism in ISS small-gain theory, and for the class of…
Convergent, contractive or incremental stability properties of nonlinear systems have attracted interest for control tasks such as observer design, output regulation and synchronization. The convergence property plays a central role in the…
Given two nonlinear systems which only violate incremental passivity when their incremental gains are sufficiently small, we give a condition for their negative feedback interconnection to have finite incremental gain, which generalizes the…
We extend the results of the general small-gain theorem proposed by Z.P Jiang. The significance of this extension is two fold. First, it allows one to use general vector norm to characterize the input-to-output property of two…
Input-to-state stability (ISS) allows estimating the impact of inputs and initial conditions on both the intermediate values and the asymptotic bound on the solutions. ISS has unified the input-output and Lyapunov stability theories and is…
A small-gain approach is proposed to analyze closed-loop stability of linear diffusion-reaction systems under finite-dimensional observer-based state feedback control. For this, the decomposition of the infinite-dimensional system into a…

This paper extends the nonlinear ISS small-gain theorem to a large-scale time delay system composed of three or more subsystems. En route to proving this small-gain theorem for systems of differential equations with delays, a small-gain…
We prove a novel Lyapunov-based small-gain theorem for networks of $ n \geq 2 $ hybrid systems which are not necessarily input-to-state stable. This result unifies and extends several small-gain theorems for hybrid and impulsive systems…
We study singularly perturbed systems that exhibit input-to-state stability (ISS) with fixed-time properties in the presence of bounded disturbances. In these systems, solutions converge to the origin within a time frame independent of…
This article deals with input-to-state stability (ISS) of continuous-time switched nonlinear systems. Given a family of systems with exogenous inputs such that not all systems in the family are ISS, we characterize a new and general class…
This paper continues the study of the integral input-to-state stability (IISS) property. It is shown that the IISS property is equivalent to one which arises from the consideration of mixed norms on states and inputs, as well as to the…
This work provides an example that motivates and illustrates theoretical results related to a combination of small-gain and density propagation conditions. Namely, in case the small-gain fails to hold at certain points or intervals the…

The cyclic feedback interconnection of $n$ subsystems is the basic building block of control theory. Many robust stability tools have been developed for this interconnection. Two notable examples are the small gain theorem and the Secant…
When the state of a system may remain bounded even if both the input amplitude and energy are unbounded, then the state bounds given by the standard input-to-state stability (ISS) and integral-ISS (iISS) properties may provide no useful…
