Stability is a critical feature of distributed linear multi-input-multi-output systems. Global asymptotic stability usually can be guaranteed when using decentralised or distributed control architectures, if: (i) conservative controllers…
In this paper we present a general tool to handle the presence of zero dynamics which are asymptotically but not locally exponentially stable in problems of robust nonlinear stabilization by output feedback. We show how it is possible to…
This article is concerned with stability analysis and stabilization of randomly switched nonlinear systems. These systems may be regarded as piecewise deterministic stochastic systems: the discrete switches are triggered by a stochastic…
Given a finite-dimensional time continuous control system and $\varepsilon>0$, we address the question of the existence of controls that maintain the corresponding state trajectories in the $\varepsilon$-neighborhood of any prescribed path…
Feedback asymptotic stabilization of control systems is an important topic of control theory and applications. Broadly speaking, if the system $\dot{x} = f(x,u)$ is locally asymptotically stabilizable, then there exists a feedback control…
Results on the problem of stabilizing a nonlinear continuous-time system by a finite number of control or measurement values are presented. The basic tool is a discontinuous version of the so-called semi-global backstepping lemma. We derive…
For a broad class of nonlinear systems, we construct smooth control-Lyapunov functions whose derivatives along the trajectories of the systems can be made negative definite by smooth control laws that are arbitrarily small in norm. We…
This paper studies the problem of stabilization of a nonlinear system with time-varying delays in both sensing and actuation using event-triggered control. Our proposed strategy seeks to opportunistically minimize the number of control…
In this paper, we extend well-known relationships between global asymptotic controllability, sample stabilizability, and the existence of a control Lyapunov function to a wide class of control systems with unbounded controls, which includes…
We provide a detailed study of the dynamics obtained by linearizing the Korteweg-de Vries equation about one of its periodic traveling waves, a cnoidal wave. In a suitable sense, linearly analogous to space-modulated stability, we prove…
We study the asymptotic stability properties of nonlinear switched systems under the assumption of the existence of a common weak Lyapunov function. We consider the class of nonchaotic inputs, which generalize the different notions of…
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…
The main result of the paper is a global asymptotic stability result for solutions to the Lifschitz-Slyozov-Wagner (LSW) system of equations. This extends some local asymptotic stability results of Niethammer-Vel\'{a}zquez (2006). The…
We develop a switched nonlinear predictor-feedback control law to achieve global asymptotic stabilization for nonlinear systems with arbitrarily long input delay, under state quantization. The proposed design generalizes the nonlinear…
Predictor-based stabilization results are provided for nonlinear systems with input delays and a compact absorbing set. The control scheme consists of an inter-sample predictor, a global observer, an approximate predictor, and a nominal…
A novel adaptive control approach is proposed to solve the globally asymptotic state stabilization problem for uncertain pure-feedback nonlinear systems which can be transformed into the pseudo-affine form. The pseudo-affine pure-feedback…
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…
The stabilization of nonlinear systems under zero-state-detectability assumption or its analogues is considered. The proposed supervisory control provides a finite time practical stabilization of output and it is based on uniting local 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…
The main objective of this paper is to show that two asymptotically stable steady states which belong to an analytic path of asymptotically stable steady states can be gradually transferred one to the other by successive changes of the…
