We observe that if we are interested primarily in degeneration arguments, there is a weaker notion of (semi)stability for vector bundles on reducible curves, which is sufficient for many applications, and does not depend on a choice of…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g$. A coherent system on $C$ is a pair $(E,V)$, where $E$ is a finite rank vector bundle on $C$ and $V$ is a linear subspace of the space of global sections of $E$. The type of a coherent system $(E,V)$ is a…

We start up the study of the stability of general graph pairs. This notion is a generalization of the concept of the stability of graphs. We say that a pair of graphs $(\Gamma,\Sigma)$ is stable if $Aut(\Gamma\times\Sigma) \cong…

Let $X$ be a smooth irreducible projective curve. Recently, Pauly and Pe\'on-Nieto shows that a vector bundle over $X$ is very stable if and only if the Hitchin map on the vector space of Higgs field on that vector bundle is proper. In this…

Classical conditions for ensuring the robust stability of a linear system in feedback with a sector-bounded nonlinearity include small gain, circle, passivity, and conicity theorems. In this work, we present a similar stability condition,…

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…

This paper focuses on using the first curvature $\kappa(t)$ of trajectory to describe the stability of linear time-invariant system. We extend the results for two and three-dimensional systems [Y. Wang, H. Sun, Y. Song et al.,…

In this paper, we will prove a very general result of stability for perturbations of linear integrable Hamiltonian systems, and we will construct an example of instability showing that both our result and our example are optimal. Moreover,…

We examine Hilbert-Schmidt stability (HS-stability) of discrete amenable groups from several angles. We give a short, elementary proof that finitely generated nilpotent groups are HS-stable. We investigate the permanence of HS-stability…

This paper deals with stability of discrete-time switched linear systems whose all subsystems are unstable. We present sufficient conditions on the subsystems matrices such that a switched system is globally exponentially stable under a set…

Consider the controlled system $dx/dt = Ax + \alpha(t)Bu$ where the pair $(A,B)$ is stabilizable and $\alpha(t)$ takes values in $[0,1]$ and is persistently exciting, i.e., there exist two positive constants $\mu,T$ such that, for every…

We investigate the homotopy groups of stable loci in affine Geometric Invariant Theory (GIT), arising from linear actions of complex reductive algebraic groups on complex affine spaces. Our approach extends the infinite-dimensional…

Let $C$ be a curve of genus $g\geq 2$. A coherent system on $C$ consists of a pair $(E,V)$ where $E$ is an algebraic vector bundle of rank $n$ and degree $d$ and $V$ is a subspace of dimension $k$ of sections of $E$. The stability of the…

The issues of robust stability for two types of uncertain fractional-order systems of order $\alpha \in (0,1)$ are dealt with in this paper. For the polytope-type uncertainty case, a less conservative sufficient condition of robust…

For modules over an artin algebra a linear stability condition is given by a "central charge" and a nonlinear stability condition is given by the wall-crossing sequence of a "green path". Finite Harder-Narasimhan stratifications of the…

Linear stability of synchronized states in networks of delay-coupled oscillators depends on the type of interaction, the network and oscillator properties. For inert oscillator response, found ubiquitously from biology to engineering,…
