In real-world networks the interactions between network elements are inherently time-delayed. These time-delays can not only slow the network but can have a destabilizing effect on the network's dynamics leading to poor performance. The…
This paper is concerned with establishing global asymptotic stability results for a class of non-linear PDE which have some similarity to the PDE of the Lifschitz-Slyozov-Wagner model. The method of proof does not involve a Lyapounov…
This paper considers linear delay-difference equations, that is, equations relating the state at a given time with its past values over a given bounded interval. After providing a well-posedness result and recalling Hale--Silkowski…
The paper deals with a class of cooperative functional differential equations (FDEs) with infinite delay, for which sufficient conditions for persistence and permanence are established. Here, the persistence refers to all solutions with…
At the occasion of Eduardo D. Sontag's 70 th birthday, we provide here an overview of the tools available to study input-to-state stability (ISS) and related notions for time-delay systems. After a hopefully pedagogical presentation of the…
The robust tracking and model following problem of linear discrete-time systems is investigated in this paper. An approach to design robust tracking controllers is proposed. The system is controlled to track dynamic inputs generated from a…
In this short note, we derive dissipative conditions with slack variables for a linear coupled differential-difference (CDDS) via constructing a Krasovskii functional. The approach can be interpreted as a generalization of the Finsler Lemma…
We address the stability problem for linear switching systems with mode-dependent restrictions on the switching intervals. Their lengths can be bounded as from below (the guaranteed dwell-time) as from above. The upper bounds make this…
This paper studies the stabilization and safety problems of nonlinear time-delay systems, where time delays exist in system state and affect the controller design. Following the Razumikhin approach, we propose a novel control…
This paper deals with the robust stability analysis of linear systems, subject to time-varying parameters. The Parameter Dependent Lyapunov Function are considered, assuming that the temporal derivative of the parameters are bounded. Some…
We present stability conditions for deterministic time-varying nonlinear discrete-time systems whose inputs aim to minimize an infinite-horizon time-dependent cost. Global asymptotic and exponential stability properties for general…
Takens' Embedding Theorem asserts that when the states of a hidden dynamical system are confined to a low-dimensional attractor, complete information about the states can be preserved in the observed time-series output through the delay…
This paper considers discontinuous dynamical systems, i.e., systems whose associated vector field is a discontinuous function of the state. Discontinuous dynamical systems arise in a large number of applications, including optimal control,…
We consider the problem of robust diffusive stability (RDS) for a pair of coupled stable discrete-time positive linear-time invariant (LTI) systems. We first show that the existence of a common diagonal Lyapunov function is sufficient for…
This paper establishes new sufficient conditions for Mittag-Leffler stability of Caputo fractional-order nonlinear systems with state-dependent delays. The central analytical tool is a class of Lyapunov-Krasovskii functionals that…
In this work stability results for systems described by coupled Retarded Functional Differential Equations (RFDEs) and Functional Difference Equations (FDEs) are presented. The results are based on the observation that the composite system…
We carry out a delay stability analysis (i.e., determine conditions under which expected steady-state delays at a queue are finite) for a simple 3-queue system operated under the Max-Weight scheduling policy, for the case where one of the…
Lyapunov's indirect method is an attractive method for analyzing stability of non-linear systems since only the stability of the corresponding linearized system needs to be determined. Unfortunately, the proof for finite-dimensional systems…
