The celebrated S-Lemma was originally proposed to ensure the existence of a quadratic Lyapunov function in the Lur'e problem of absolute stability. A quadratic Lyapunov function is, however, nothing else than a squared Euclidean norm on the…
We introduce the concept of sos-convex Lyapunov functions for stability analysis of both linear and nonlinear difference inclusions (also known as discrete-time switched systems). These are polynomial Lyapunov functions that have an…
The topic of this manuscript is the stability analysis of continuous-time switched nonlinear systems with constraints on the admissible switching signals. Our particular focus lies in considering signals characterized by upper and lower…
Let $f(x)=x^TAx+2a^Tx+c$ and $h(x)=x^TBx+2b^Tx+d$ be two quadratic functions having symmetric matrices $A$ and $B$. The S-lemma with equality asks when the unsolvability of the system $f(x)<0, h(x)=0$ implies the existence of a real number…
We consider the problem of extending the classical S-lemma from commutative case to noncommutative cases. We show that a symmetric quadratic homogeneous matrix-valued polynomial is positive semidefinite if and only if its coefficient matrix…
Switched linear hyperbolic partial differential equations are considered in this paper. They model infinite dimensional systems of conservation laws and balance laws, which are potentially affected by a distributed source or sink term. The…
The paper is concerned with asymptotic stability properties of linear switched systems. Under the hypothesis that all the subsystems share a non strict quadratic Lyapunov function, we provide a large class of switching signals for which a…
This work studies the problem of searching for homogeneous polynomial Lyapunov functions for stable switched linear systems. Specifically, we show an equivalence between polynomial Lyapunov functions for systems of this class and quadratic…
We present a data-driven framework based on Lyapunov theory to provide stability guarantees for a family of hybrid systems. In particular, we are interested in the asymptotic stability of switching linear systems whose switching sequence is…
In this work, we study finite-time stability of switched and hybrid systems in the presence of unstable modes. We present sufficient conditions in terms of multiple Lyapunov functions for the origin of the system to be finite time stable.…
This paper studies switching stabilization problems for general switched nonlinear systems. A piecewise smooth control-Lyapunov function (PSCLF) approach is proposed and a constructive way to design a stabilizing switching law is developed.…
We prove that if a homogeneous, continuously differentiable vector field is asymptotically stable, then it admits a Lyapunov function which is the ratio of two polynomials (i.e., a rational function). We further show that when the vector…
This article provides a characterization of stability for switched nonlinear systems under average dwell-time constraints, in terms of necessary and sufficient conditions involving multiple Lyapunov functions. Earlier converse results focus…
In this paper, we propose a novel, unified, general approach to investigate sufficient and necessary conditions under which four types of convex sets, polyhedra, polyhedral cones, ellipsoids and Lorenz cones, are invariant sets for a linear…
We present a stability analysis framework for the general class of discrete-time linear switching systems for which the switching sequences belong to a regular language. They admit arbitrary switching systems as special cases. Using recent…
This paper studies finite-time stability of a class of hybrid systems. We present sufficient conditions in terms of multiple generalized Lyapunov functions for the origin of the hybrid system to be finite-time stable. More specifically, we…
The paper considers a linear matrix inequality (LMI) that depends on a parameter varying in a compact topological space. It turns out that if a strict LMI continuously depends on a parameter and is feasible for any value of that parameter,…
We consider the inhomogeneous biharmonic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation $$ i u_t +\Delta^2 u+\lambda|x|^{-b}|u|^\alpha u = 0, $$ where $\lambda=\pm 1$ and $\alpha$, $b>0$. In the subctritical case, we improve the global well-posedness…
We consider polynomial differential equations and make a number of contributions to the questions of (i) complexity of deciding stability, (ii) existence of polynomial Lyapunov functions, and (iii) existence of sum of squares (sos) Lyapunov…
We present a new approach for constructing polytope Lyapunov functions for continuous-time linear switching systems (LSS). This allows us to decide the stability of LSS and to compute the Lyapunov exponent with a good precision in…
