Designing control policies for stabilization tasks with provable guarantees is a long-standing problem in nonlinear control. A crucial performance metric is the size of the resulting region of attraction, which essentially serves as a…
The notion of Lyapunov function plays a key role in design and verification of dynamical systems, as well as hybrid and cyber-physical systems. In this paper, to analyze the asymptotic stability of a dynamical system, we generalize standard…
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…
Stability analysis tools are essential to understanding and controlling any engineering system. Recently sum-of-squares (SOS) based methods have been used to compute Lyapunov based estimates for the region-of-attraction (ROA) of polynomial…
In this paper, we first prove an abstract theorem on the existence of polynomial attractors and the concrete estimate of their attractive velocity for infinite-dimensional dynamical systems, then apply this theorem to a class of wave…
This paper mainly addresses the optimization of $p$-th moment of $\mathbb{R}^n$-valued random variable. Through an ingenious approximation mechanism, one transforms the maximization problem into a sequence of minimization problems, which…
In this paper, we study the construction of Lyapunov functions based on first order approximations. In a first part, the study of local exponential stability property of a transverse invariant manifold is considered. This part is mainly a…
This paper deals with asymptotic stability of a class of dynamical systems in terms of smooth Lyapunov pairs. We point out that well known converse Lyapunov results for differential inclusions cannot be applied to this class of dynamical…
We study the discrete dynamical system defined on a subset of $R^2$ given by the iterates of the secant method applied to a real polynomial $p$. Each simple real root $\alpha$ of $p$ has associated its basin of attraction $\mathcal…
In the design and operation of complex dynamical systems, it is essential to ensure that all state trajectories of the dynamical system converge to a desired equilibrium within a guaranteed stability region. Yet, for many practical systems…
This paper focuses on the analysis of the Region of Attraction (RoA) for unknown autonomous dynamical systems. A data-driven approach based on the moment-Sum-of-Squares (SoS) hierarchy is proposed, enabling novel RoA outer approximations…
We introduce the notion of Lyapunov exponents for random dynamical systems, conditioned to trajectories that stay within a bounded domain for asymptotically long times. This is motivated by the desire to characterize local dynamical…
Methods have previously been developed for the approximation of Lyapunov functions using radial basis functions. However these methods assume that the evolution equations are known. We consider the problem of approximating a given Lyapunov…
Techniques from numerical bifurcation theory are very useful to study transitions between steady fluid flow patterns and the instabilities involved. Here, we provide computational methodology to use parameter continuation in determining…
The random map model is a deterministic dynamical system in a finite phase space with n points. The map that establishes the dynamics of the system is constructed by randomly choosing, for every point, another one as being its image. We…
Systems with a first integral (i.e., constant of motion) or a Lyapunov function can be written as ``linear-gradient systems'' $\dot x= L(x)\nabla V(x)$ for an appropriate matrix function $L$, with a generalization to several integrals or…
We introduce and investigate the asymptotic behaviour of the trajectories of a second order dynamical system with Tikhonov regularization for solving a monotone equation with single valued, monotone and continuous operator acting on a real…
This paper deals with the stability analysis of a mass-spring system subject to friction using Lyapunov-based arguments. As the described system presents a stick-slip phenomenon, the mass may then periodically sticks to the ground. The…
We propose two novel numerical schemes for approximate implementation of the dynamic programming~(DP) operation concerned with finite-horizon, optimal control of discrete-time systems with input-affine dynamics. The proposed algorithms…
Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDPs) provide an elegant mathematical framework for modeling complex decision and planning problems in stochastic domains in which states of the system are observable only indirectly, via a…
