A nonlinear cyclic system with delay and the overall negative feedback is considered. The characteristic equation of the linearized system is studied in detail. Sufficient conditions for the oscillation of all solutions and for the…
A necessary and sufficient condition, expressed simply as the DC loop gain (ie the loop gain at zero frequency) being less than unity, is given in this paper to guarantee the internal stability of a feedback interconnection of Linear…
Stochastic feedback systems give rise to a variety of notions of stability. The conditions for the stability of the median, mean, and variance stability conditions differ. These conditions can be stated explicitly for scalar discrete-time…
We prove that under a small-gain condition, an interconnection of two globally incrementally exponentially stable systems inherits this property on any compact connected forward invariant set. It is also demonstrated that the…
Feedback or closed-loop control allows dynamical systems to increase their performance up to a limit imposed by the second law of thermodynamics. It is expected that within this limit, the system performance increases as the controller uses…
It is known that the stability of a feedback interconnection of two linear time-invariant systems implies that the graphs of the open-loop systems are quadratically separated. This separation is defined by an object known as the multiplier.…
This paper extends the nonlinear ISS small-gain theorem to a large-scale time delay system composed of three or more subsystems. En route to proving this small-gain theorem for systems of differential equations with delays, a small-gain…
These notes derive a number of technical results on nonlinear contraction theory, a comparatively recent tool for system stability analysis. In particular, they provide new results on the preservation of contraction through system…
We consider optimization algorithms that are open systems, that is, with external inputs and outputs. Such algorithms arise for instance, when analyzing the effect of noise or disturbance on an algorithm, or when an algorithm is part of…
This note studies the robust output feedback stabilization problem of multi-input multi-output invertible nonlinear systems with output-dependent multipliers. An "ideal" state feedback is first designed under certain mild assumptions. Then,…
The global response to weak time periodic forces of an array of noisy, coupled nonlinear systems might show a nonmonotonic dependence on the number of units in the array. This effect has been termed system size stochastic resonance. In this…
In this note, we present monotonicity results of a function involving to the inverse hyperbolic sine. From these, we derive some inequalities for bounding the inverse hyperbolic sine.
This paper presents a fundamental relation between Output Asymptotic Gains (OAG) and Input-to-Output Stability (IOS) gains for linear systems. For any Input-to-State Stable, strictly causal linear system the minimum OAG is equal to the…
We discuss the role of monotonicity in enabling numerically tractable modular control design for networked nonlinear systems. We first show that the variational systems of monotone systems can be embedded into positive systems. Utilizing…
This paper (parts I and II) provides an expository introduction to monotone and near-monotone dynamical systems associated to biochemical networks, those whose graphs are consistent or near-consistent. Many conclusions can be drawn from…
We prove the following converse of the passivity theorem. Consider a causal system given by a sum of a linear time-invariant and a passive linear time-varying input-output map. Then, in order to guarantee stability (in the sense of finite…
We consider the problem of zeroing an error output of a nonlinear discrete-time system in the presence of constant exogenous disturbances, subject to hard convex constraints on the input signal. The design specification is formulated as a…
Maximal monotonicity is explored as a generalization of the linear theory of passivity, aiming at an algorithmic input/output analysis of physical models. The theory is developed for maximal monotone one-port circuits, formed by the series…
A monotone self-mapping of the nonnegative orthant induces a monotone discrete-time dynamical system which evolves on the same orthant. If with respect to this system the origin is attractive then there must exists points whose image under…
This paper (parts I and II) provides an expository introduction to monotone and near-monotone dynamical systems associated to biochemical networks, those whose graphs are consistent or near-consistent. Many conclusions can be drawn from…
