In this paper, we investigate the global asymptotic stability of an age-structured population dynamics model with a Ricker's type of birth function. This model is a hyperbolic partial differential equation with a nonlinear and nonlocal…
In this brief note, we establish a novel criterion for robustness of global asymptotic stability of zero solution of LTV system $\dot x=A(t)x$ in the presence of possibly unbounded perturbations (external disturbances). To prove the result,…
We establish sufficient conditions for positive (semi-)definiteness, with or without radial unboundedness, for nonquadratic Lyapunov function constructed as sign-indefinite quadratic forms involving the state and the deadzone of a suitable…
This paper investigates tail asymptotics of stationary distributions and quasi-stationary distributions (QSDs) of continuous-time Markov chains on subsets of the non-negative integers. Based on the so-called flux-balance equation, we…
We provide explicit conditions for uniform stability, global asymptotic stability and uniform exponential stability for dynamic equations with a single delay and a nonnegative coefficient. Some examples on nonstandard time scales are also…
Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for a substochastic semigroup on $L^1$ obtained through the Kato--Voigt perturbation theorem to be either stochastic or strongly stable. We show how such semigroups are related to piecewise…
It is well known that weakly continuous semigroups defined over $\mathbb{R}_{+}$ are automatically strongly continuous. We extend this result to more generally defined semigroups, including multiparameter semigroups.
We give a new, two-step approach to prove existence of finite invariant measures for a given Markovian semigroup. First, we identify a convenient auxiliary measure and then we prove conditions equivalent to the existence of an invariant…
In this paper, we propose a new approach to prove stability of non-linear discrete-time systems. After introducing the new concept of stability contractor, we show that the interval centred form plays a fundamental role in this context and…
This note studies (practical) asymptotic stability of nonlinear networked control systems whose protocols are not necessarily uniformly globally exponentially stable. In particular, we propose a Lyapunov-based approach to establish…
Stochastic dynamical systems consisting of non-invertible continuous maps on an interval are studied. It is proved that if they satisfy the recently introduced so-called $\mu$-injectivity and some mild assumptions, then proximality,…
We consider the time-dependent nonlinear system $\dot q(t)=u(t)X(q(t))+(1-u(t))Y(q(t))$, where $q\in\R^2$, $X$ and $Y$ are two %$C^\infty$ smooth vector fields, globally asymptotically stable at the origin and $u:[0,\infty)\to\{0,1\}$ is an…
We obtain some results of existence and continuity of physical measures through equilibrium states and apply these to non-uniformly expanding transformations on compact manifolds with non-flat critical sets, obtaining sufficient conditions…
We propose a definition o meta-stability and obtain sufficient conditions for a sequence of Markov processes on finite state spaces to be meta-stable. In the reversible case, these conditions reduce to estimates of the capacity and the…
A class of asymptotically autonomous systems on the plane with oscillatory coefficients is considered. It is assumed that the limiting system is Hamiltonian with a stable equilibrium. The effect of damped multiplicative stochastic…
In this paper, we present the asymptotic distribution of M-estimators for parameters in non-stationary AR(p) processes. The innovations are assumed to be in the domain of attraction of a stable law with index $0<\alpha\le2$. In particular,…
We study continuity and equicontinuity of semigroups on norming dual pairs with respect to topologies defined in terms of the duality. In particular, we address the question whether continuity of a semigroup already implies (local/quasi)…
We show that the class of $L^2$ functions for which ergodic averages of a reversible Markov chain have finite asymptotic variance is determined by the class of $L^2$ functions for which ergodic averages of its associated jump chain have…
The limiting stability of invariant probability measures of time homogeneous transition semigroups for autonomous stochastic systems has been extensively discussed in the literature. In this paper we initially initiate a program to study…
In order to successfully explore quantum systems which are perturbations of simple models, it is essential to understand the complexity of perturbation bounds. We must ask ourselves: How quantum many-body systems can be artificially…
