Feedback asymptotic stabilization of control systems is an important topic of control theory and applications. Broadly speaking, if the system $\dot{x} = f(x,u)$ is locally asymptotically stabilizable, then there exists a feedback control…

Classical discrete-time adaptive controllers provide asymptotic stabilization. While the original adaptive controllers did not handle noise or unmodelled dynamics well, redesigned versions were proven to have some tolerance; however,…
