In previous papers we have introduced a sufficient condition for uniform attractivity of the origin for a class of nonlinear time-varying systems which is stated in terms of persistency of excitation (PE), a concept well known in the…
This article proposes an approach to construct a Lyapunov function for a linear coupled impulsive system consisting of two time-invariant subsystems. In contrast to various variants of small-gain stability conditions for coupled systems,…
In this paper we show that uniformly global asymptotic stability for a family of ordinary differential equations is equivalent to uniformly global exponential stability under a suitable nonlinear change of variables. The same is shown for…
In this paper, we show that an infinite network of input-to-state stable (ISS) subsystems, admitting ISS Lyapunov functions, itself admits an ISS Lyapunov function, provided that the couplings between the subsystems are sufficiently weak.…
This paper provides a systematic exposition of Lyapunov stability for compact sets in locally compact metric spaces. We explore foundational concepts, including neighborhoods of compact sets, invariant sets, and the properties of dynamical…
In this paper, we investigate the dynamical behavior of non-autonomous Lame thermoelastic systems within $N$-dimensional materials. With appropriate constraints on nonlinear characteristics and functional parameters, we initially establish…
This work addresses the problem of estimating the region of attraction (RA) of equilibrium points of nonlinear dynamical systems. The estimates we provide are given by positively invariant sets which are not necessarily defined by level…
The paper deals with the global asymptotic stability of general nonlinear time-delay systems with delay-dependent impulses through the Lyapunov-Krasovskii method. We derive a unified stability criterion which can be applied to a variety of…
We explicitly construct global strict Lyapunov functions for rapidly time-varying nonlinear control systems. The Lyapunov functions we construct are expressed in terms of oftentimes more readily available Lyapunov functions for the limiting…
This paper is concerned with the study of both, local and global, uniform asymptotic stability for switched nonlinear time-varying (NLTV) systems through the detectability of output-maps. With this aim the notion of reduced limiting control…
This technical note studies Lyapunov-like conditions to ensure a class of dynamical systems to exhibit predefined-time stability. The origin of a dynamical system is predefined-time stable if it is fixed-time stable and an upper bound of…
We prove that impulsive systems, which possess an ISS Lyapunov function, are ISS for time sequences satisfying the fixed dwell-time condition. If an ISS Lyapunov function is the exponential one, we provide a stronger result, which…
In this paper, a nonlinear extension of the Georgiou-Smith system is considered and robustness results are proved for a class of nonlinear PI controllers with respect to fast parasitic first-order dynamics. More specifically, for a…
Many nonlinear dynamical systems can be written as Lure systems, which are described by a linear time-invariant system interconnected with a diagonal static sector-bounded nonlinearity. Sufficient conditions are derived for the global…
In this paper, we consider linear switched systems $\dot x(t)=A_{u(t)} x(t)$, $x\in\R^n$, $u\in U$, and the problem of asymptotic stability for arbitrary switching functions, uniform with respect to switching ({\bf UAS} for short). We first…
While stability analysis is a mainstay for control science, especially computing regions of attraction of equilibrium points, until recently most stability analysis tools always required explicit knowledge of the model or a high-fidelity…
In this paper we propose a novel semi-definite programming based method to compute robust domains of attraction for state-constrained perturbed polynomial systems. A robust domain of attraction is a set of states such that every trajectory…
We introduce a new class of functions, called Attractivity Guarantee (AG)-functions, to certify the attractivity of sets for uncertain nonlinear switched systems in discrete time. The existence of an AG-function associated with a set…
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 show that every globally asymptotically stable system with a twice continuously differentiable vector field admits a local polynomial Lyapunov function on an arbitrary bounded neighborhood of the origin.
