In this work, we study the dynamics of piecewise smooth systems on a codimension-2 transverse intersection of two codimension-1 discontinuity sets. The Filippov convention can be extended to such intersections, but this approach does not…
We study incremental stability and convergence of switched (bimodal) Filippov systems via contraction analysis. In particular, by using results on regularization of switched dynamical systems, we derive sufficient conditions for convergence…
We present a general regularization procedure for piecewise smooth vector fields whose discontinuity locus is a variety of normal crossings type. We show that such regularization can be smoothed through a finite sequence of blowings-up,…
We use blowup to study the regularization of codimension one two-fold singularities in planar piecewise smooth (PWS) dynamical systems. We focus on singular canards, pseudo-equlibria and limit cycles that can occur in the PWS system. Using…
Two-fold singularities in a piecewise smooth (PWS) dynamical system in $\mathbb{R}^3$ have long been the subject of intensive investigation. The interest stems from the fact that trajectories which enter the two-fold are associated with…
We study convergence in networks of piecewise-smooth (PWS) systems that commonly arise in applications to model dynamical systems whose evolution is affected by macroscopic events such as switches and impacts. Existing approaches were…
This paper provides conditions to ensure contractive behavior of Filippov solutions generated by multi-modal piecewise smooth (PWS) systems. These conditions are instrumental in analyzing the asymptotic behavior of PWS systems, such as…
This paper is devoted to study the generic fold-fold singularity of Filippov systems on the plane, its unfoldings and its Sotomayor-Teixeira regularization. We work with general Filippov systems and provide the bifurcation diagrams of the…
One of the most common hypotheses on the theory of non-smooth dynamical systems is a regular surface as switching manifold, at which case there is at least well-defined and established Filippov dynamics. However, systems with singular…
In this paper we study the cyclicity of sliding cycles for regularized piecewise smooth visible-invisible two-folds, in the presence of singularities of the Filippov sliding vector field located away from two-folds. We obtain a slow-fast…

This paper addresses openness, density and structural stability conditions of one-parameter families of 3D piecewise smooth vector fields (PSVFs) defined around typical singularities. Our treatment is local and the switching set, $M$, is a…
For three-dimensional piecewise-smooth systems of ordinary differential equations, this paper characterises the stability of points that belong to a switching surface and are equilibria of exactly one of the two neighbouring pieces of the…
Switch-like behaviour in dynamical systems may be modelled by highly nonlinear functions, such as Hill functions or sigmoid functions, or alternatively by piecewise-smooth functions, such as step functions. Consistent modelling requires…
We are interested in analyzing the preservation of bifurcations in a class of piecewise smooth vector fields with a nonregular switching set under a smoothing process that approximates them by smooth vector fields. We examine cases in which…
We develop a contraction-based framework to establish the existence and exponential stability of periodic solutions in planar nonsmooth dynamical systems governed by Filippov differential inclusions. The method integrates a time- and…
We demonstrate with a minimal example that in Filippov systems (dynamical systems governed by discontinuous but piecewise smooth vector fields) stable periodic motion with sliding is not robust with respect to stable singular perturbations.…
