We introduce the concept of non-uniform input-to-state stability for networks. It combines the uniform global stability with the uniform attractivity of any subnetwork, while it allows for non-uniform convergence of all components. For an…

A new definition of continuous-time equilibrium controls is introduced. As opposed to the standard definition, which involves a derivative-type operation, the new definition parallels how a discrete-time equilibrium is defined, and allows…
