Preface \At the same time it becomes clear why some stability investigations should not be taken too seriously. One needs to know the size of the region of asymptotic stability." J.P. LaSalle and S. Lefschetz1 The kind of persistency of dynamical behaviour is important not only for various sciences like mathematics, mechanics, uid mechanics, thermodynamics, electricity, electronics, chemistry, control, econometrics, biology, medicine, and not only for engineering and science, but also for individuals, social life and state development. An appropriate persistency is the essential sense of the corresponding stability property. Relativeness of the notion of persistence resulted in a number of stability concepts among which was that of practical stability probably initiated by Chetaev in the thirties of the twentieth century. The above cited comment by LaSalle and Lefschetz, who were probably those who attracted the attention and interest of English speaking scientists to the Lyapunov stability theory, explains well the need to study stability domains in general and stability regions in particular. This book is aimed at what we consider basic from the theory of stability domains for various direct eective applications and/or for further research. In doing so we express freely and openly our views on stability theory in the framework of the Lyapunov stability concept and practical stability concept. Authors

Introductory comments on stability concepts 1.1 Comments on Lyapunov's stability concept 1.1.1 Lyapunov's de nition of stability and the de nitions of stability in the Lyapunov sense
Lyapunov 127] used q = q1 q2 : : : qk q_1 q_2 : : : q_k ]T as the state (vector) of a material system with k degrees of freedom. It satises a vector dierential equation of the rst order and dimension equal to 2k (or to n if we replace 2k by n : n = 2k), which is of the form (1.1): dq = r(t q) r : <

Lyapunov's definition of stability of motion 127]: \Let L1 L2 : : : Lm be arbitrarily given positive numbers. If for all Ls , irrespective of how small they are, it is possible to select positive numbers E1 E2 : : : Ek E10 E20 : : : Ek0 so that for all real "j "0j , which satisfy the conditions:
j"j j Ej j"0j j Ej0 (j = 1 2 : : : k)

Comment 1.1 Lyapunov's denition is related to cases for which the initial instant
does not inuence the stability property 127]. In such cases we may accept t0 = 0, which holds for time-invariant (also called stationary) systems.
Comment 1.2 Lyapunov's denition demands that inequalities jQi ; Fi j < Li 8i = 1 2 : : : m are satised for all t 2 ]t +1] rather than for all t 2 t +1. However, it has been commonly accepted to require that for all t 2 < , < = t +1 10], 0

Comment 1.3 Lyapunov's denition introduces stability with respect to some con-
tinuous functions Qi dependent on q. In a special case Qi = qi and Qk+i = q_i, i = 1 2 : : : k. It is interesting to note that Lyapunov himself studied only this special case. A justication for that is claried by the next theorem, which is a generalised version of theorem 1 by Grujic in 88] (page 7).
Theorem 1.1 Let the unperturbed motion qu be a dierentiable vector function. T Let Q = ( Q1 Q2 : : : Qn ) , n = 2k:
a)
X(t) = q(t) ; qu (t)

b)
f(t X) = rt qu(t) + X] ; rt qu(t)]

and, in view of (1), Then, stability of X = 0 of the system (1.4){(1.6) with respect to Q(t X) X is necessary and sucient for stability of the unperturbed motion qu(:) of the system (1.1) with respect to any vector function Q, Q : <

Proof. Necessity. Let Q(t q) q be chosen for system (1.1) and let Q(t X) X
be selected for the system (1.6). Such choices are permissible. The function Q is uniformly continuous. Let the unperturbed motion qu of the system (1.1) be stable with respect to any function Q that is uniformly continuous in (t q) 2 <

Now, (1.5), (1.6), (1.7) and (1.9) prove that for the unperturbed motion qu of the system (1.1) the following holds:

Since all li 2 <+ can be arbitrarily chosen in (1.11) then let them be accepted to obey (1.7). Now, (1.4) with q = qu in it, and (1.11) yield 8t0 2 <, 8Li 2 <+ , 8i = 1 2 : : : n, 9(Ej Ej0 ) 2 <+ <+ , 8j = 1 2 : : : k, such that

which proves stability of the unperturbed motion qu(:) of the system (1.1) with respect to the vector function Q. Theorem 1.1 reduces the stability analysis of the unperturbed motion qu of the system (1.1) to the stability analysis of the zero state X = 0 of the system (1.4){(1.6). Lyapunov's original denition, Comments 1{3 and Theorem 1.1 explain why the following denition is commonly used as the denition of stability in the Lyapunov sense in case the initial instant t0 is xed, e.g. t0 = 0. Let X(t t0 X0 ) be a motion of the system (1.6) at time t, which passes through X0 at time t = t0, X(t0 t0 X0 ) X0 .

b) The stability is global (in the whole, in the large) if and only if the maximal (" t0 X ) denoted by M (" t0 X ) obeying a) tends to +1 as " ! +1.

c) If and only if X = 0 then (" t0 0) and M (" t0 0) are denoted by (" t0 ) and M (" t0) respectively. Comment 1.4 a) The Lyapunov stability concept was originally concerned with stability of a motion and of the origin X = 0, which was later broadened to stability of a set 10], 218]. b) The distance was originally dened by Lyapunov 127] via the absolute values jQi(t) ; Fi (t)j. It is now commonly dened via the Euclidean norm in the literature, e.g. 10], 94], 116], 121], 218]. c) The closeness in the Lyapunov sense means that the distance is less than " for any given " 2 <+ , 94], 218]. d) The closeness in the Lyapunov sense is requested over the innite time interval <0 = t0 +1 <, 10], 94], 116], 121], 218]. This diers from Lyapunov's original requirement for the closeness over the time interval ]t0 +1]. e) The Lyapunov closeness is demanded provided external inuences to the system (1.1) are nominal over the time interval <0. This means the Lyapunov closeness is required for the system (1.6) in its free regime (i.e. under no external disturbance action over the time interval <0 ). f) The Lyapunov closeness is demanded for all the initial states X0 = X(t0 ) whose distance from X = 0 is less than some = (t0 ") 2 <+ . g) Denition 1.1 broadens the concept of continuity of a function at a point to motions. For a deep analysis of it see Rouche and Mawhin 178, pp. 1{3]. Comment 1.5 Denition 1.1 can be satised by arbitrarily small 2 <+ even if the corresponding " 2 <+ has been chosen very large. It requires only the existence of 2 <+ obeying its condition. This is a conceptual drawback of the Lyapunov stability concept from the point of view of engineering, technical applications and needs.
Example 1.1 70] Let n = 2, X = x x ]T , 2 < and the system (1.6) take
the following specic form:

dX = (; + jx j + jx j)X: 1 2 dt The system state portrait is given in Fig. 1.1. The state X = 0 is stable. However, if is small (e.g. = 10;3) or very small (e.g. = 10;10), then the dynamic behaviour of the system is unsatisfactory in the engineering sense even for small initial states (jx10j + jx20j > 10;3) or (jx10j + jx20j > 10;10), respectively. Comment 1.6 Example 1.1 shows that existence of positive obeying Denition 1.1
is not adequate engineering information about the qualitative dynamic properties of the system. Useful information is that about the largest neighbourhood Ds (" t0) of X = 0 such that kX(t t0 X0 )k < " is satised for all t 2 <0 i X0 2 Ds(" t0 ) for any " 2 <+ . Moreover, we need information about the largest neighbourhood Ds (t0 ) of X = 0 containing all Ds (" t0 ), that is that Ds (t0) = Ds(" t0) : " 2 <+ ].

Figure 1.1: The state portrait of the system of Example 1.1.
Note 1.1 For the sake of simplicity of introducing new concepts this book will
deal only with time-invariant continuous-time systems. In the preceding analysis time-varying systems were treated due to the reference to Lyapunov's original considerations and denition. Motions of time-invariant systems, as well as their properties, do not depend on the initial moment t0 . Hence, it is accepted equal to zero: t0 = 0: This enables the use of the simpler, more concise notation for a system motion, X(: X0): X(t t0 X0 ) X(t 0 X0) X(t X0 ) X(t): In case the system (1.6) is time-invariant then it will be described by (1.12): dX = f(X) f :

Comment 1.7 We wish to know more than just about stability of a set A. We want to get information about what is, for any " 2 <+ , the largest neighbourhood Ds (" A) of the set A such that X(t X0 ) A] < " for all t 2 <+ holds i X0 2 Ds (" A), and in addition, to know Ds(A) = Ds(" A) : " 2 <+ ]. © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
The preceding denitions are illustrated by Fig. 1.2 and Fig. 1.3. From the engineering point of view " can be used to measure accuracy the lower ", the higher the accuracy. Stability can be interpreted as a system's ability to maintain as high nite accuracy of its motions as desired (i.e. arbitrarily small " 2 <+ ) provided initial state accuracy is su ciently high (i.e. is su ciently small, 2 <+ ), respectively.
1.1.2 De nitions of attraction
Although Lyapunov did not dene the notion of attraction, he was the rst to state general qualitative conditions for convergence of system motions to the zero state (Lyapunov's remark 2 in 127], page 61), which led to denitions of attraction and asymptotic stability of X = 0 of the system (1.12). The former is commonly dened as follows (e.g. 10], 94], 218]): Denition 1.4 a) The state X = 0 of the system (1.12) is attractive if and only if there is $ > 0 and for every > 0 there is 2 <+ , = (X0 ), such that kX0 k < $ implies lim kX(t X0)k : t ! +1] = 0. b) The state X = 0 of the system (1.7) is globally attractive (attractive in the whole, in the large) if and only if a) holds for $ = +1. Comment 1.8 The denition of attraction requires only the existence of $ > 0 obeying its condition irrespective of whether $ is large or small, even very small. In the case of the system (1.12) in the form given in Example 1.1 the state X = 0 is attractive. However, this property becomes useless from the engineering point of view as soon as is small (e.g. = 10;3) or very small (e.g. = 10;10).
Comment 1.9 For engineering purposes it is important to derive, or at least to estimate well, the largest neighbourhood Da of X = 0 such that lim kX(t X )k : t ! +1] = 0 holds i X 2 Da . Denition 1.5 a) A set A is attractive with respect to motions of the system (1.12), for short, attractive, if and only if there is $ > 0 and for every > 0 there is 2 < , = (X A), such that (X A) < $ implies X(t X ) A] <
for all t 2 ] +1, and lim X(t X ) : t ! +1] = X 2 A. b) The set A is globally attractive (attractive in the whole, in the large) if and only if a) holds for $ = +1. 0

1.1.3 De nitions of asymptotic stability
Stability and attraction are in general mutually independent system dynamic properties. It was well illustrated by Vinograd (Hahn 1967 94], pp. 191{194). Both are often desired, which led to the concept of asymptotic stability. Denition 1.6 a) The state X = 0 of the system (1.12) is asymptotically stable if and only if it is both stable and attractive. b) The state X = 0 of the system (1.12) is globally asymptotically stable (asymptotically stable in the whole, in the large) if and only if it is both stable and globally attractive. c) The state X = 0 of the system (1.12) is completely globally asymptotically stable if and only if it is both globally stable and globally attractive.

Comment 1.11 The notion of asymptotic stability has the same drawback as sta-
bility and attraction. The state X = 0 of the system considered in Example 1.1 is asymptotically stable. Unfortunately, its asymptotic stability can be useless for engineering purposes in the case where is small (e.g. = 10;3) or very small (e.g. = 10;10). Engineering applications of the stability analysis need more information about qualitative dynamic properties of the system. They often need data on the largest neighbourhood D of X = 0 which is contained in both Ds and Da , that is that on D = Ds \ Da . Asymptotic stability of X = 0 is meaningful for engineering purposes provided only that D is suciently large from the engineering point of view.
Denition 1.7 a) A set A is asymptotically stable with respect to motions of the system (1.12), in short, asymptotically stable if and only if it is both stable and attractive.
b) The set A is globally asymptotically stable (asymptotically stable in the whole, in the large) if and only if it is both stable and globally attractive. c) The set A is completely globally asymptotically stable if and only if it is both globally stable and globally attractive.
Comment 1.12 Besides asymptotic stability of a set A we often wish to know the set D(A) = Ds(A) \ Da (A).
1.1.4 De nitions of exponential stability
Asymptotic stability does not provide any information on the rate of system motion convergence to X = 0, or to the set A. Engineering requests for a higher quality of the system dynamic behaviour demand su cient rate of the system motion convergence. For this purpose the concept of exponential stability introduced by Krasovskii 116] is important. Denition 1.8 a) The state X = 0 of the system (1.12) is exponentially stable if and only if there are $ > 0 and positive numbers and , 1, such that kX0 k < $ implies kX(t X0 )k kX0 k exp (; t) for all t 2 <+ . b) The state X = 0 of the system (1.12) is globally exponentially stable (exponentially stable in the whole, in the large) if and only if a) holds for $ = +1. Comment 1.13 Existence of $ and is not sucient information for engineer-
ing applications. In addition to that, we need the knowledge of the smallest possible value of , the largest possible value of and of the largest neighbourhood De of X = 0 such that kX(t X0)k kX0 k exp (; t) for all t 2 <+ holds i X0 2 De . There is certainly a trade-o among , and De in general, which is illustrated as follows. For the system of Example 1.1 the set De depends on and via 1, De (1) = fX : jx1j + jx2j 1 g, where 1 = ; should be positive. For given and , > > 0, the set De(1 ) is the largest neighbourhood of X = 0 such that p X0 2 De (1) implies kX(t X0 )k kX0 k exp (; t) for all t 2 <+ , where = 2.

1.2 Comments on the practical stability concept 1.2.1 Introductory comments
The practical stability concept aims at determining closeness in a practical, engineering sense, at clarifying the system behaviour either in the free or in a forced regime over a time interval that can be bounded and for initial states of practical, engineering signicance. The closeness can be dened via a suitably accepted distance function and/or via sets. The latter appears more general and will be utilised

Chapter 2
Stability domain concepts 2.1 Introductory comments In order to get complete information about the causality between initial states and systems motions, concepts of domains of various stability properties were introduced. In the framework of the Lyapunov stability the notion of attraction domain of the origin was dened by Zubov 218] and Hahn 94], and notions of the stability domain and the asymptotic stability domain were dened by Gruji&c 64], 65], 68]{70], 72], and used by Gruji&c et al. 88]{90]. The concept of practical stability domains was introduced by Gruji&c 70]. In the literature (e.g. LaSalle and Lefschetz 121] and Zubov 218]) the notion of \region of asymptotic stability" has been used in the sense of the attraction domain. In what follows the dierence between them will be claried.
2.2 Domains of Lyapunov stability properties 2.2.1 The notion of domain
The term \domain" denotes a set that can be, but need not be, open or closed. Domains of Lyapunov stability properties will be called for short \Lyapunov stability domains" in a general sense incorporating domains of stability, of attraction and of asymptotic stability. In the closer sense the notion \Lyapunov stability domain" will be used for the domain of stability (for short, the stability domain). Lyapunov stability domains will be studied herein in the framework of timeinvariant continuous-time nonlinear systems governed by dX = f(X) (2.1) dt with possibly certain specic features that will be described when they are needed. In the literature (e.g. LaSalle and Lefschetz 121]) the notion \region" has been used for an open connected set. We do not wish a priori to impose such a restriction
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
on the largest set of initial states appropriate for a corresponding stability property. Therefore, we shall use the term \domain" in general rather than \region". In case a domain is open and connected then we can also call it a \region".
2.2.2 De nitions of stability domains
The denitions of stability domains were introduced to comply with the denitions of stability of a state and of a set 64], 65], 68], 69], 70], 72].
Denition 2.1 (a) The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the stability domain denoted by Ds if and only if both (i) for every " 2 < there is a neighbourhood Ds (") of X = 0 such that kX(t X )k < " for all t 2 < holds provided only that X 2 Ds ("), +
0
+
0
and (ii) Ds = Ds (") : " 2 <+ ]. (b) The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the strict domain of stability (the strict stability domain) Dsc if and only if (i) it has the domain Ds of stability, (ii) Dsc (") is the largest connected neighbourhood of X = 0 which is subset of Ds ("), Dsc(") Ds ("), for every " 2 <+ , (iii) Dsc = Dsc (") : " 2 <+ ].
Comment 2.1 The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the stability domain i it is stable due to Denition 2.1 and Denition 1.2. (Section 1.1.1). Moreover, it is globally stable i its strict stability domain Dsc is its whole state space
Example 2.1 Let a second order system (2.1) be in the following form: dX = (; + jx j + jx j)X 2 <+ : 1 2 dt It has the innite set Se of equilibrium states,
Se = X : X 2 < (X = 0) or (jx j + jx j = ) : 2

2.2.3 De nitions of attraction domains
The notion of the attraction domain has been widely used (cf. 94], 218]). Denition 2.3 (a) The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the attraction domain denoted by Da if and only if both (i) and (ii) hold:
(i) for every 2 <+ , there is 2 <+ , = (X0 ), such that kX(t X0 )k < for all t 2 ] +1 holds provided only that X0 2 Da , and (ii) Da is a neighbourhood of X = 0. (b) The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the strict domain of attraction (the strict attraction domain) denoted by Dac if and only if Dac is the largest connected neighbourhood of X = 0, which is subset of Da , Dac Da .
Note 2.3 The condition (i) of the preceding denition can be expressed in an equivalent form (i0 ) , (i0 ) lim kX(t X0 )k : t ! +1] = 0 provided only that X0 2 Da . © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC

dX = (; + jx j + jx j)X 2 <+ : 1 2 dt Its state portrait is shown in Fig. 2.5. The attraction domain Da of X = 0 of the system is the interior S = X : X 2 <2 jx1j + jx2j <
of the set
S = X : X 2 <2 jx1j + jx2j Da = S
Da = X : X 2 <2 jx1j + jx2j < : The boundary
@ S = X : X 2 <2 jx1j + jx2j = is a subset of the set
Se = X : X 2 <2 (X = 0) or (jx1j + jx2j = ) of all equilibrium states. Hence, X(t X0) X0 for every X0 2 @ S . Therefore, @ S \ Da = and Da is open set. In this example, Da = Dac . The domain Da of attraction of X = 0 of the system is open (bounded connected) set, while its domain Ds = Dsc of stability is closed (also bounded connected) set. © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC

The attraction domain Da (A) of the set A is an open subset of its stability domain Ds(A) (Fig. 2.3d). In fact Da (A) = Dac (A) = Ds (A), D% a (A) = Ds(A). Since Da (A) is bounded, then the set A is not globally attractive.

(i) it has the stability domain Ds and the attraction domain Da , and (ii) D = Ds \ Da . (b) The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the strict domain of asymptotic stability (the strict asymptotic stability domain) denoted by Dc if and only if it has both the strict stability domain Dsc and the strict attraction domain Dac and Dc = Dsc \ Dac .
Comment 2.2 If the state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has both Ds { the stability domain and Da { the attraction domain, then they are neighbourhoods of it. Hence, D { the asymptotic stability domain is also a neighbourhood of X = 0. It can be closed, can be open, which will be illustrated via examples. It need not be connected in general. However, Dc is a connected neighbourhood of X = 0 due to such property of Dsc and Dac , and Dc = Dac \ Dsc . Example 2.8 Let the second order system analyzed in Example 2.1 and Example 2.4 be further considered, dX = (; + jx j + jx j)X 2 <+ : 1 2 dt It was shown that X = 0 of the system has both the stability domain Ds,

In view of Denition 2.5, the state X = 0 of the system has also the asymptotic stability domain D,
D = Ds \ Da = X : X 2 < jx j + jx j < = Da D = Dc : In this example D equals Da and they are subsets of Ds . They are exactly the interior Ds of Ds, Da = D = Ds, in this case. 2

2.2.5 De nitions of exponential stability domains
In order to explain the relative sense of the denitions of exponential stability domains we shall rst consider the system of Example 2.1 once more.

In other words, the larger set S over which the motions obey the exponential estimate kX(t X0)k kX0k exp (; t) 8t 2 <+ the smaller rate of the exponential convergence of the motions to the origin. If we wish to nd > 0 in the limiting case = , i.e. S = S = fX : X 2 <2 jx1j + jx2j g then we conclude that > 0 does not exist. The same holds for the interior S = fX : X 2 <2 jx1j + jx2j < g of S . The consequence of this is that there does not exist the maximum set S (or S ) for which we can nd obeying the exponential estimate because 2 ]0 and max ]0 does not exist, although sup ]0 = { exists. Therefore, we cannot speak of the largest (or the maximum) set of system states over which the exponential estimate holds for some 2 1 +1 and 2 ]0 +1. Instead, we can look for the largest set of system states over which the exponential estimate holds with respect to given 2 1 +1 and given 2 ]0 +1. Denition 2.7 (a) The state X = 0 of the system (2.1) has the domain De ( ) of exponential stability with respect to ( ) if and only if both (i) De ( ) is a neighbourhood of X = 0, and (ii) the exponential estimate

Comment 2.4 The state X = 0 of the system dX = (; + jx j + jx j)X 2 <+ : 1 2 dt has De (1 ) for any 2 ]0 and it equals S ,

2.2.6 De nitions of asymptotic stability domains on
Let the system (2.1) be of the Lurie form (Section 1.1.5), dX = AX + Bf(w) dt w = CX + Df(w):
( )(
N
)
(2.2a) (2.2b)
In order to explain the need for the study of domains of asymptotic stability on Ni ( ) we present the following simple example.
Example 2.13 Let n = 1 and dX = ;sin X: dt This system has innitely many equilibrium points located at X = k, where k is any integer. Hence, X = 0 obviously is not asymptotically stable in the large. However, it is asymptotically stable with the domain of asymptotic stability D = ] ; . Over S = D the nonlinearity f, f(X) = ;sin X, belongs to the family N1 (L M S ) for L = 0 1] and M = ;1 1. If the system is embedded into the class of Lurie systems (2.2), then we can speak only about asymptotic stability of X = 0 for a particular f( ) or for any f 2 N1 (L M S ), or for any f 2 N0 (L S ). This means that we can look only for the asymptotic stability domain for a particular f e.g. f(X) = ;sin X, or for every f 2 N1 (L M S ), or for every f 2 N0 (L S ). Let Df denote the asymptotic stability domain of X = 0 of the (Lurie) system (2.2) for a particular nonlinearity f.
Denition 2.9 The state X = 0 of the system (2.2) has the strict] asymptotic stability domain on Ni (L M S ), which is denoted by Di (L M S ) Dic (L M S )], if and only if
a) it has the strict] asymptotic stability domain Df Dcf ] for every f 2
Ni (L M S )
and b) Di (L M S ) = \Df : f 2 Ni (L M S )] is a neighbourhood of X = 0 Dic(L M S ) = \Dcf : f 2 Ni (L M S )] is a connected neighbourhood of X = 0], respectively.
This denition was introduced in 68], 69]. It can be extended to sets as follows:
Denition 2.10 A set A

and b) Di (L M A S ) = \Df : f 2 Ni (L M A S )] is a neighbourhood of the set A Dic = \Dcf : f 2 Ni (L M A S )] is a connected neighbourhood of the set A], respectively.
2.3 Domains of practical stability properties 2.3.1 De nitions of domains of practical stability
By following 70] and Section 1.2.2 we accept the following denition for the system (2.3): dX = f(X i) f :
Denition 2.11 The system (2.3) has the domain of practical stability with respect to f XA Ig, which is denoted by Dps ( XA I ), if and only if both a) its motions obey
X(t X0 i) 2 XA for every (t i) 2 < I provided only that X0 2 Dps ( XA I ), and b) the interior Dps ( XA I ) of Dps ( XA I ) is non-empty.
When , XA and I are prespecied then we may replace Dps ( XA I ) by Dps .
Denition 2.12 A set A (of states of the system (2.3)) has the domain of practical stability with respect to f XA Ig, which is denoted by Dps ( XA I A), if and only if both
a) the system motions obey
X(t X0 i) 2 XA for every (t i) 2 < I provided only that X0 2 Dps ( XA I A), and b) Dps ( XA I A) is a neighbourhood of the set A.
When , XA and I are known then we may write Dps (A) instead of Dps ( XA I A).

2.3.2 De nitions of domains of practical contraction with settling time
As for practical stability domains, we rst introduce the notion of the domain of practical contraction with settling time for the system (2.3) (see Section 1.2.3).
Denition 2.13 The system (2.3) has the domain of practical contraction with the settling time s with respect to f XF Ig, which is denoted by Dpc ( s XF I ), if and only if both
a) its motions obey
X(t X0 i) 2 XF for every (t i) 2 Ts I provided only that X0 2 Dpc ( s XF I ), and b) the interior Dpc ( s XF I ) of Dpc ( s XF I ) is non-empty.
When , s , XF and I are prespecied then we may write Dpc instead of Dpc ( s XF I ).
Denition 2.14 A set A (of states of the system (2.3)) has the domain of practical contraction with the settling time s with respect to f XF Ig, which is denoted by Dpc ( s XF I A), if and only if both a) the system motions obey
X(t X0 i) 2 XF for every (t i) 2 Ts I provided only that X0 2 Dpc ( s XF I A), and b) Dpc ( s XF I A) is a neighbourhood of the set A.
When , s , XF and I are known then we may replace Dpc ( s XF I A) by Dpc (A).

In view of the preceding denition and the notion of practical stability with settling time (Section 1.2.4) we accept the following denition:

Denition 2.15 The system (2.3) has the domain of practical (contractive) stability with the settling time s with respect to f XA XF Ig, which is denoted by Dp ( s XA XF I ), if and only if a) both 1)
X(t X0 i) 2 XA for every (t i) 2 < I

X(t X0 i) 2 XF for every (t i) 2 Ts I
and hold provided only X0 2 Dp ( s XA XF I ), and b) the interior Dp ( s XA XF I ) of Dp ( s XA XF I ) is non-empty.
When , s , XA , XF and I are given then we may write Dp instead of Dp ( s XA XF I ). For the set A we deduce from Denition 2.12 and Denition 2.14 the following 70]:
Denition 2.16 A set A (of states of the system (2.3)) has the domain of practical (contractive) stability with the settling time s with respect to f XA XF Ig, which is denoted by Dp ( s XA XF I A), if and only if a) both 1)
X(t X0 i) 2 XA for every (t i) 2 < I
2)
X(t X0 i) 2 XF for every (t i) 2 <s I
and hold provided only that X0 2 Dp ( s XA XF I A), and b) Dp ( s XA XF I A) is a neighbourhood of the set A.
When , s, XA, XF and I are known and xed then we may write Dp (A) in the sense of Dp ( s XA XF I A).

Qualitative features of stability domains properties 3.1 Introductory comments 3.1.1 De nition of a motion
If a (physical, technical) system is described by a rst order vector dierential equation in (3.1a) dq = r(q W) r :
(3.1a)
and by an algebraic vector equation in (3.1b) y = g(q W) g :
(3.1b)
then the former describes its internal dynamics that via (3.1b) determines its output behaviour under the inuence of an input (vector function) W. Let yd : < ! <m denote a specic output response of the system (3.1), which is of a particular interest, which is aimed to and, therefore, called a desired output (vector function) of the system.
Denition 3.1 The system (3.1) is in the nominal (desired) regime with respect to yd if and only if y(t) yd (t). A pair (q W) is nominal (desired) with respect to yd if and only if the system (3.1) is in the nominal regime with respect to the same yd . Theorem 3.1 In order for a pair (q W) to be nominal denoted by (qN WN ) with
respect to a desired output yd of the system (3.1a) it is both necessary and su cient

that it satises the following identities: dq(t) rq(t) W (t)] dt gq (t) W(t)] yd (t):

Proof. The statement of Theorem 3.1 follows directly from (3.1) and Denition 3.1. A nominal motion qN with respect to a desired output yd of the system (3.1) is an unperturbed motion in Lyapunov's terminology (Section 1.1.1).
Assumption 3.1 A nominal pair (qN WN ) with respect to yd is known and it is time invariant.
From now on it is accepted that the Assumption 3.1 holds. This means that (qN WN ) is elementwise constant solution to (3.2). Let the following change of variables (i.e. translation of coordinate systems) be dened: X = q ; qN i = W ; WN f(X i) = r(qN + X WN + i) ; r(qN WN ): (3.3) It is easy to show that after subtracting (3.2a) from (3.1a) and using (3.3) we derive (3.4), dX = f(X i) f : X I !
(i) X is dened in X , X(t X0 i) 2 X , if and only if t 2 I0 for every i 2 I , (ii) X is continuous and dierentiable in t 2 I0 for all i 2 I , (iii) X identically satises the equation (3.4) on I0 I , that is
d dt X(t X0 i) fX(t X0 i) i(t)] and (iv) X fulls the initial condition,
X(0 X0 i) X0 :
I = 0 = fi : i = 0g for the system (3.7). Hence, we shall use X(t X0 ) in the sense of X(t X0 0) : X(t X0 ) X(t X0 0). In general X0 is a subset of
3.1.2 Existence of motions
There are various theorems on existence of motions of the system (3.7). Their common feature is that they provide su cient conditions (rather than necessary and su cient conditions) for existence of motions. Here will be presented the classical results by referring to 157]. Theorem 3.2 In order for the system (3.7) to have a motion through X0 2 X at t = 0 it is sucient that there exists a compact (closed and bounded) neighbourhood N (X0 ) of X0 , N (X0 ) X , such that the function f is continuous on N (X0 ) : f(X) 2 CN (X0 )]. Then the motion is dened in the time interval ] ; , where X0 @ N (X0 )] = max kf(X)k : X 2 N (X0 )]

Nemytskii and Stepanov 157, Theorem 1.21] established the following result by using the preceding theorem.

Theorem 3.3 If, as time increases, a given motion X remains in a compact nonempty subset Xc of the interior N (X0 ) of the neighbourhood N (X0 ) on which the conditions of Theorem 3.2 are fullled, then the motion X may be continued for rrr (is dened on) the whole interval <+ = 0 +1]. This theorem is very important for discovering a link between stability of X = 0 and the existence of solutions, which is stated as follows: Theorem 3.4 (a) If X = 0 is stable then X(t X0) exists on <+ for every X0 2 Ds. (b) If X = 0 is attractive and X(t X0) is continuous in t 2 0 (X0 kX0 k)] for every X0 2 Da then X(t X0) exists on <+ for every X0 2 Da . (c) If X = 0 is asymptotically stable then X(t X0 ) exists on <+ for every X0 2 D. (d) If X = 0 is exponentially stable then X(t X0) exists on <+ for every X0 2 De( ). rrr Proof. Theorem 3.3 and (a) the denition of Ds (Denition 2.1, Section 2.2.2) imply directly the statement under (a). (b) the denition of Da (Denition 2.3, Section 2.2.3) yield directly the statement under (b), by noting that = kX0 k in (X0 ) in the same denition. (c) the statement (c) follows from (a) and (b) due to the denition of D (Denition 2.5, Section 2.2.4). (d) The statement under (d) is a direct corollary to Theorem 3.3 in view of the denition of De( ) (Denition 2.7, Section 2.2.5). Several other criteria for the existence of motion follow. The next one is due to Zubov 218, p. 14]. Theorem 3.5 If the function f is dened and continuous on

for all in an interval over which both X ( X0 ) and X( X0 ) are dened and for all t 2 <+ for which both X ( ; t X0) and X( ; t X0) are dened. (b) A motion X of a system is forward-time unique through X0 if and only if it and any other motion X of the same system through X0 obey (3.12) (3.12) X ( + t X0) = X( + t X0) for all in an interval over which both X ( X0 ) and X( X0 ) are dened and for all t 2 <+ for which both X ( + t X0) and X( + t X0) are dened. (c) A motion X of a system is unique through X0 if and only if it is both backwardtime unique through X0 and forward-time unique through X0 .
In order to illustrate the preceding denition several examples follow.

The number L is called a Lipschitz constant of the function f on S , the condition (3.13) is the Lipschitz condition and the family of all the functions f obeying the Lipschitz condition on the set S is denoted by Lip (S ), f 2 Lip (S ). If we wish to emphasize the mutual dependence between L and S in Denition 3.4 then we can write S L for S , S L = S . The next criterion for the existence and uniqueness of motions is classical.

Comment 3.1 If a function f 2 Lip (S ) then it is dened and continuous on S , but vice versa is not true. For example the function f , f(x) = jxj1=2, is dened and continuous on <.

3.1.4 Continuity of motions in initial conditions
The Lipschitzian property of the function f is important also for continuity of motions X in the initial condition X0 , X0 = X(0). This is shown by what follows 157, Theorem 2.22], the proof of which can be found in 157, p. 14].

3.2 Generalised motions 3.2.1 Motivation
Let a simple rst order unstable linear plant described by y(1) ; y = u be controlled by locally stabilising nonlinear control u, u = k sign e, k 2 <+ , e = yd ; y, where yd is a desired output accepted equal to zero, yd (t) 0. Let x = y, X = (x). Then the overall closed-loop feedback control system is described by dx = x ; k sign x: dt Its motions are found as ( t 2 ] ; 1 0 if jx0j 2 ]0 k x(t x0)=k sign x0 + (x0 ; k sign x0 ) exp (t) t 2 < if x0 = 0 or jx0j 2 k +1 k sign x0 . If jx j 2 ]0 k then motions do not exist on +1 where 0 = ln k sign 0 0 x0 ; x0 because x(t x0) is not dierentiable at t = 0 (Denition 3.2). However, the real system operates well for t 2 0 +1 (see Example 3.11). This motivates us to generalise the notion of motion.
3.2.2 Dini derivatives
Let t 2 <, Tt; be a set of a sequence tk converging to t on the left as k ! +1 if t > ;1, (t = +1 is permitted), Tt; = ftk : tk 2 < tk < t k = 0 1 2 : : : tk ! t as k ! +1g t 2 ] ; 1 +1] and, analogously, Tt+ = ftk : tk 2 < tk > t k = 0 1 2 : : : tk ! t as k ! +1g t 2 ;1 +1: Denition 3.5 (i) A number; 2+< is the partial limit of a function x, x : < ! <, over a sequence set Tt Tt ], if and only if for every " 2 <+ there is an integer N such that k > N implies jx(tk ) ; j < ", (ii) the symbol = ;1 = +1] is the partial limit of a function x : < ! < over a sequence set Tt; Tt+ ], if and only if for every " 2 ]0 +1 there is an integer N such that, respectively, k > N implies x(tk ) < ;";1 x(tk ) > ";1 ], (iii) the greatest the smallest] partial limit of a function x : < ! < over all the sequence sets Tt; is its left upper left lower] limit at t = t , which is
denoted by

(iv) the greatest the smallest] partial limit of a function x : < ! < over all the sequence sets Tt+ is its right upper right lower] limit at t = t , which is denoted by lim sup x(t) : t ! t+ ] = lim x(t) : t ! t+ ]

If x(t) = 0 for t = 0 and x(t) = signsin(t;2 )] for t 6= 0 then lim x(t) : t ! 0; ] = lim x(t) : t ! 0+ ] = 1 and lim x(t) : t ! 0;] = lim x(t) : t ! 0+ ] = ;1. Now, we can dene Dini derivatives 143], 217]: Denition 3.6 Let V be a continuous scalar function of X on X , V (X) 2 C(X ) and let the system (3.7) have a solution X through X 2 X at t = 0. Then, (i) the forward-time upper right Dini derivative of V along the solution X at X is ; V (X) : ! 0+ D+ V (X) = lim sup V X( X)] (ii) the forward-time lower right Dini derivative of V along the solution X at X is

(v) The function V has the forward-time left Dini derivative along the motion X at X , which is denoted by Dl V (X), if and only if D; V (X) = D; V (X) and then Dl V (X) = D; V (X) = D; V (X). (vi) The function V has the forward-time right Dini derivative along the motion X at X , which is denoted by Dr V (X), if and only if D+ V (X) = D+ V (X) and then Dr V (X) = D+ V (X) = D+ V (X). (vii) The function V has the forward-time Eulerian derivative along the motion X at X , which is denoted by df V (X)]=dt or by V_ f (X), if and only if it has both Dl V (X) and Dr V (X) and Dl V (X) = Dr V (X), and then df V (X)]=dt = V_ f (X) = Dl V (X) = Dr V (X).

D V (X) means that both D V (X) and D; V (X) may be used. +
In order to clarify the dierence between the forward-time derivatives and the backward-time derivatives we dene the latter as follows: Denition 3.7 Let V be a continuous scalar function of X on X , V (X) 2 C(X ) and let the system (3.7) have a solution X through X 2 X at t = 0.

(v) The function V has the backward-time left Dini derivative along the motion X at X , which is denoted by l DV (X), if and only if ; DV (X) = ; DV (X) and then l DV (X) = ; DV (X) = ; DV (X) . (vi) The function V has the backward-time right Dini derivative along the motion X at X , which is denoted by r DV (X), if and only if + DV (X) = + DV (X) and then r DV (X) = + DV (X) = + DV (X) . (vii) The function V has the backward-time Eulerian derivative along the motion X at X , which is denoted by dbV (X)]=dt or by V_ b (X), if and only if has both l DV (X) and r DV (X) and l DV (X) =r DV (X), and then df V (X)]=dt = V_ b (X) =l DV (X) = r DV (X) .
Denition 3.6 and Denition 3.7 directly imply the next relationships among backward-time derivatives and forward-time derivatives: ; DV (X) = ;D+ V (X) ; DV (X) = ;D+ V (X) + DV (X) = ;D; V (X) + DV (X) = ;D; V (X) l DV (X) = ;Dr V (X) r DV (X) = ;Dl V (X) © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
and
V_ b (X) = ;V_ f (X): These equations and our interest in the forward-time system behaviour justify the usage of the forward-time derivatives only from now on. Hence, we shall use a simplied notation dV (X)=dt, or V_ (X), for the forward-time Eulerian derivative of V along X at X instead of df V (X)]=dt, or V_ f (X), respectively. The preceding clarications were necessary in order to dene generalised motions.

a) (x0 6= 0) 2 <, sgn 0 = 0. In this case the dierence is in the time interval I0 over which motions and generalised motions are dened. I0 = ] ;jx0j + 1 is the interval of denition of motions, and I0 = < is the time interval over which the system has dened generalised motions through every (x0 6= 0) 2 < since sgn 0 = 0. They are unique. b) x0 = 0, sgn 0 = 0. System has unique both motion and generalised motion x(t x0) 0. c) x0 2 <, sgn 0 6= 0. Since x(t _ x0) = sgn x(t x0), then x(t x0) should have the following form: _ x0) = sgn x0 and x(t _ x0 ) = x(t _ x0) = x0 + t sgn x0 . They imply both x(t sgn x(t x0) = sgn(x0 + t sgn x0 ). For them to be equal it is necessary and su cient that: sgn x0 = sgn(x0 + t sgn x0 ) which requires: t 2 0 1 if (sgn 0 6= 0) 2 f;1 +1g and x0 = 0 t 2 ;jx0j 1 if sgn x0 = sgn 0, (x0 6= 0) 2 < and sgn 0 6= 0 t 2 ] ; jx0j 1 if sgn x0 6= sgn 0, (x0 6= 0) 2 < and sgn 0 6= 0.

Besides, they coincide with the motion x(t 0) 0 on jx0j +1 for every x0 2 <. They are not backward-time unique for x0 6= 0.
Note 3.1 Generalised motions of the system x_ = ;sign x obey xt x( 0 0)] = x(t 0 0) for t 2 +1, 2 <, i.e. in the forward-time direction. They do not obey this equation for t 2 ] ; 1 i.e. in the backward-time direction. Note 3.2 All the denitions of Chapter 1 and Chapter 2 are valid also in case X therein represents a generalised motion. The same holds for Denition 3.6 and Denition 3.7 (Section 3.2.2). Existence of generalised motions
From the proof by Nemytskii and Stepanov 157, p. 3] of Theorem 3.2 157, Theorem 1.11] and Denition 3.8 it follows:
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
Theorem 3.10 In order for the system (3.7) to have a generalised motion through
X0 2 X at t = 0, it is sucient that there exists a compact neighbourhood N (X0 ) of X0 , N (X0 ) X , such that the function f is dened on N (X0 ) and continuous on N (X0 ) except possibly at X0 : f(X) 2 C N (X0 ) ; fX0 g]. Then, the generalised motion is dened in the interval ] ; , where X0 @ N (X0 )] : = maxkf(X)k : X 2 N (X0 )]
rrr
This theorem directly implies the following result.
Theorem 3.11 If, as time increases, a given generalised motion X remains in a compact nonempty subset Xc of the interior N (X0 ) of the neighbourhood N (X0 ) on which the conditions of Theorem 3.8 are fullled, then the generalised motion may be continued for the whole interval <+ .

Note 3.3 Theorem 3.4 is valid also in the case where X represents a generalised motion of the system (3.7).

3.2.4 Limit points and limit sets
In the sequel X(t X0 ) will be called a motion or generalised motion when X is a motion or generalised motion, respectively, and as soon as t is arbitrary in I0 rather than xed. By following Nemytskii and Stepanov 157], Zubov 218, p. 21], Bhatia and Szeg(o 10, p. 28], and LaSalle 120, p. 27], and referring to Denition 3.8 we accept the following denition. Notice that the maximal interval on which X(t X0) exists was denoted by I0 = I0(X0 X) = (l; l+ ). Denition 3.9 (a) A point y is an -limit point of a motion X(t X0) if and only if there is a sequence tn ! l; as n ! +1 such that X(tn X0) ! y as n ! +1. y is also called a negative limit point of X(t X0). (b) A point z is an !-limit point of a motion X(t X0) if and only if there is a sequence k ! l+ as k ! +1 such that X( k X0) ! z as k ! +1. z is also called a positive limit point of X(t X0). (c) If X(t X0 ) is a generalised motion then (a) and (b) are still valid.

Comment 3.7 Let
a) x_ = x2=3, Example 3.1, Fig. 3.1. Every motion x(t 0) has -limit point y = ;1 for 6= 0, and for !-limit point z = +1 for 6= 0. If = = 0 then y = z = 0. b) x_ = sgn x, Example 3.2, Fig. 3.2, Example 3.6, Fig. 3.7. The -limit point y of x(t x0) is zero, y = 0, for every x0 2 <. The !-limit point z of x(t x0) is z = (+1 sign x0 ) if (x0 6= 0) 2 <, and z = 0 if x0 = 0 and sgn 0 = 0. In all other cases in which the system has generalised motions, the !-limit point z of x(t x0) is z = (+1 sign x0 ). c) x_ = ;sign x, Example 3.3, Fig. 3.3, Example 3.7, Fig. 3.8. If (x0 6= 0) 2 < then both the motion and the generalised motion have the -limit point y = (+1 sgn 0) and the !-limit point z = 0. The motion x(t 0) 0 has y = z = 0. d) x_ = ;x1=2, Example 3.4, Fig. 3.4. If x0 2 <+ then y = +1 and z = 0. If x0 = 0 then y = z = 0. e) x_ = ;x3 , Example 3.5, Fig. 3.5. If (x0 6= 0) 2 <+ then y = (+1 sign x0 ) and z = 0. If x0 = 0 then y = z = 0.
Note 3.4 The preceding analysis illustrates that limit points depend on a (generalised) motion X and an initial X0 , y = y(X0 X) z = z(X0 X): In the case where a system has a unique motion through X0 2 X0 at t = 0 then the limit points depend on the initial X0 only, y = y(X0 ) z = z(X0 ): Denition 3.10 (a) The set of all negative (;) limit points y of X(t X0) is its negative limit set denoted by L;, L; = L;(X0 X):
(b) The set of all positive (!;) limit points z of X(t X0 ) is its positive limit set denoted by L+ ,
L = L (X X): +

compact and in X .

Note 3.5 Denition 3.11 is general. It holds even if the system (3.7) has multiple (generalised) motions through X0 at t = 0. If the system has a unique (generalised) motion X(t X0) then l (X0 X) = l (X0 ) and there is a unique arc X(0 l+(X0 ) X0 ) X(]l;(X0 ) 0] X0)]. In such a case the intersection in (c) taken over all motions X passing through X0 at t = 0 reduces to I0(X0 X), that is, I (X ) = ]l; (X ) l (X ) = <: Besides, Lagrange stability of X 2 X guarantees boundedness of all motions through X 2 X . 0

Note 3.6 (LaSalle 120, p. 28]) If X(t X0) is positively precompact relative to X then l+ (X0 X) = +1. Analogously, if X(t X0) is negatively precompact relative to X then l; (X0 X) = ;1. Hence, if X(t X0 ) is precompact relative to X then I0(X0 X) = <. Note 3.7 Denition 3.11 and Denition 3.12 are equivalent as pointed out by La Salle for the case of unique motions 120, p. 28]. Denition 3.11, Denition 3.12 and the denitions of the stability domains (Definition 3.1 { Denition 3.6, Section 2.2) directly imply the following result that concerns the system (3.7) by noting that (generalised) motions are continuous in t 2 I0 (Denition 3.2 and Denition 3.8). Theorem 3.13 (a-1) If X = 0 is stable then its domain Ds of stability is positively (a-2) (b-1) (b-2) (c-1) (c-2)
precompact (positively Lagrange stable). If a set A is stable then its domain Ds (A) of stability is positively precompact (positively Lagrange stable). If X = 0 is attractive then its domain Da of attraction is positively precompact (positively Lagrange stable). If a set A is attractive then its domain Da (A) of attraction is positively precompact (positively Lagrange stable). If X = 0 is asymptotically stable then D = Da Ds is positively precompact (positively Lagrange stable). If a set A is asymptotically stable then D(A) = Da (A) Ds (A) is positively precompact (positively Lagrange stable).

Theorem 3.14 If the system (3.7) has generalised motions X(t X ) continuous in X 2 X for every t 2 I , X(t X ) 2 C (I X ), then the system has a unique rrr generalised motion X(t X ) through every X 2 X at t = 0. Proof. Let X(t X ) 2 C (I X ) and (X " t) 2 X < I be arbitrarily chosen. Let X and X be two generalised motions of the system through X at t = 0. Let X = X . Hence, kX ; X k = 0 < , = min f (" t X X i ) : i = 1 2g (Denition 3.15a). Since X(t X ) 2 C (I X ) then (Denition 3.15a) kX i (t X ) ; X k (t X )k = kX i (t X ) ; X k (t X )k < ", i k 2 f1 2g. Letting " ! 0 it follows that kX i(t X ) ; X k (t X )k = 0 for every (t X ) 2 I X and i k 2 f1 2g, which proves the uniqueness of X(t X ) through X at t = 0.

and proves the theorem. (b) The statement of the theorem results from uniqueness of generalised motions. The following results slightly generalise those by Nemytskii and Stepanov 157, p. 331], Bhatia and Szeg(o 10], and LaSalle 120, p. 29].
Theorem 3.15 If the system (3.7) has generalised motions X(t X0) continuous in X0 2 X0 for every t 2 I0(X0 X), X(t X0) 2 C0(I0 X0 ), then (a) The closure A of a positively negatively] weakly invariant set A is positively negatively] weakly invariant, respectively.

X(t X ) for every t 2 I . This and X(t Xn ) 2 A for every t 2 (< \ I ) t 2 (<; \ I )], due to positive negative] invariance, imply X(t X ) 2 A for every t 2 (< \ I ) t 2 (<; \ I )], respectively. 0

(c) Let the set A be invariant and precompact relative to X . Then for any Xn 2 A both I0(Xn ) = < and L;(Xn ) L+ (Xn )] \ @ X = . Let X0 2 @ A and Xn be dened as in (a) so that for every t 2 <, X(t Xn ) ! X(t X0) as n ! +1, which implies L (Xn ) ! L (X0 ). Therefore, L; (X0 ) L+ (X0 )] \ X = . This shows that X(t X0 ) is precompact relative to X , which together with (b) proves that X(t X0) 2 A for all t 2 <. (d) Let the set A be invariant and A X . Since X is open, then A is compact, which with invariance of A and A A prove precompactness of X(t X0) for every X0 2 A. This and (c) imply invariance of A. What follows broadens slightly a theorem by Bhatia and Szeg(o 10, p. 22, Theorem 1.2.35].

(d) All the statements (a){(c) hold also if \weakly" is omitted in each case.
rrr
Proof. The proof repeats that by Bhatia and Szeg(o 10, Theorem 1.2.35]. Notice that the generalised system motions are unique (Theorem 3.14).
(a) The statement (a) is obvious due to Ai Ai : i = 1 2 : : : m . (b) Let P = \ Ai : i = 1 2 : : : m] 6= and Ai be positively negatively] weakly invariant so that X0 2 P implies X(t X0 ) 2 Ai , t 2 (<+ \I0) t 2 (<; \I0)], because P Ai , i = 1 2 : : : m. Hence, X(t X0 ) 2 P , t 2 (<+ \ I0) t 2 (<; \ I0)], respectively. (c) Let Ai Aj , Aj ;Ai 6= and both be positively negatively] weakly invariant. If the statement were wrong then there would exist X0 2 (Aj ; Ai) implying X(t X0 ) 62 (Aj ; Ai ) at some 2 (<+ \ I0) 2 (<; \ I0)]. Since X0 2 Aj yields X(t X0 ) 2 Aj , for all t 2 (<+ \ I0) t 2 (<; \ I0 )], then, altogether, X(t X0 ) 2 Ai , for all t 2 ( +1\I0) t 2 (] ;1 ] \I0)], which contradicts the invariance property of Ai due to X0 62 Ai . Hence, such X0 2 (Aj ; Ai ) does not exist. The statement is proved.

(d) Since all Ai X then, under the conditions of (a) or (b) or (c), A is positively negatively] precompact, hence, positively negatively] invariant, which holds also for Ai : i = 1 2 : : : m], for P and for Aj ; Ai . Therefore, the proofs of (a){(c) are true for all t 2 <+ t 2 <; ], respectively, which implies the statement (d). This theorem is the key-stone for the next one.
Theorem 3.17 Let A be an open set, A X and generalised motions of the system (3.7) X(t X0) 2 C0(I0 X ). (a) If A is positively negatively] weakly invariant then its boundary @ A is positively negatively] weakly invariant. (b) If A is positively negatively] invariant then its boundary @ A is also positively negatively] invariant. (c) If A is invariant then its boundary @ A is also invariant. rrr
Proof. Let A be open, A X and X(t X ) 2 C(I X ). (a) Let A be positively negatively] weakly invariant. Now, (a) of Theorem 3.15 and (c) of Theorem 3.16 prove positive negative] weak invariance of @ A because @ A = A ; A. 0

3.2.7 Invariance properties of limit sets
At rst we broaden Theorem 5.1 by LaSalle 120] to the system (3.7) with generalised motions. Theorem 3.18 Let generalised motions X(t X0) of the system (3.7) be continuous in X0 2 X0 for every t 2 I0 (X0 X), X(t X0 ) 2 C0(I0 X0). For every X0 2 X rrr the positive limit set L+ (X0 X) is closed and weakly invariant. Proof. Let X(t X0) 2 C0(I0 X0 ). Then, X(t X0 ) is unique, 8X0 2 X0, (Theorem 3.14), so that L+ (X0 X) = L+ (X0 ). Let us rst prove closeness, for which the proof of (i) of 1.3.13 Theorem by Bhatia and Szeg(o in 10] is repeated except one detail which will be explained in the sequel. Let y 2 L+ (X0 ) for arbitrarily chosen X0 , let yk 2 L+ (X0 ), yk ! y as k ! +1. It must be shown that y 2 L+ (X0 ). For each k there exists a sequence tkn ! l+ (X0 ) as n ! +1, and X(tkn X0 ) ! yk . We may assume without loss of generality that X(tkn X0 ) yk ] < 1=k holds for each k. In (the proof of i) of) Theorem 1.3.13 in 10], Bhatia and Szeg(o request, in addition, tkk > k, which is not

possible in this framework as soon as l+ (X0 ) < +1. Then considering the sequence tn , tn = tnn, we see that tn ! l+ (X0 ) and X(tn X0) ! y as n ! +1, since X(tn X0) y] X(tn X0) yn ] + (yn y) < n1 + (yn y) ! 0: From (1=n) + (yn y)] ! 0 as n ! +1 it now follows X(tn X0) y] ! 0 as n ! +1. Hence y 2 L+ (X0 ) that proves closeness of L+ (X0 ). In order to prove weak invariance we repeat the proof of Theorem 5.1 of Chapter 2 by LaSalle in 120]. Let y 2 L+ (X0 ) \ X , and let t 2 I0 (y). Since L+ (X0 ) \ X is nonempty then l+ (X0 ) = +1, and there is a sequence tn such that tn ! +1 and X(tn X0 ) ! y as n ! +1. From X(t X0) 2 C0(I X0) it follows for t 2 I0X(tn X0)] that (Lemma 3.1) Xt X(tn X0 )] = X(t + tn X0) ! X(t y) as n ! +1. Therefore, X(t y) 2 L+ (X0 ) and L+ (X0 ) is weakly invariant.
Theorem 3.19 Let generalised motions X(t X0) of the system (3.7) be continuous in X0 2 X0 for every t 2 I0(X0 X), X(t X0 ) 2 C0(I0 X0 ). In order for L+ (X0 ), X0 2 X0 is arbitrary, to be nonempty, in X and compact it is both necessary and rrr sucient that X(t X0 ) is positively precompact relative to X . Proof. Let X(t X0) 2 C0(I0 X0). Then X(t X0) is unique for any X0 2 X0 (Theorem 3.14). Necessity. Let L+ (X0 ) be nonempty, in X and compact, X0 2 X0 is arbitrary.
Since X(t X0 ) ! L+ (X0 ) as t ! +1 then X(t X0 ) is bounded because X(t X0 ) 2 C0(I0 X0 ) \ Ct(I0 X0)] and L+ (X0 ) is bounded, and X(t X0 ) does not have a positive limit point on the boundary of X because L+ (X0 ) is in X . Hence, X(t X0 ) is precompact relative to X (Denition 3.12).
Suciency. Let X(t X0) be positively precompact relative to X . Then, it is bound-
ed and does not have a positive limit point on the boundary of X (Denition 3.12). Hence, L+ (X0 ) is in X , nonempty and bounded. It is also closed (Theorem 3.18), thus it is compact.
Note 3.10 Theorem 3.18, Theorem 3.19 and the next theorem hold for L;(X X) 0
provided \positive" and \positively" are replaced by \negative" and \negatively", respectively.
Theorem 3.20 Let generalised motions X(t X ) of the system (3.7) be continuous in X 2 X for every t 2 I (X X), X(t X ) 2 C (I X ). If X is positively precompact relative to X then L (X ) is connected for every X 2 X . rrr 0

L (X ) L (X ) = L (X ). The subsets are also nonempty and compact. There are 2 < such that N L (X )] \ N L (X )] = . In view of Denition 3.10 there are two sequences tn and n , y 2 L (X ) and y 2 L (X ) such that X(tn X ) ! y and X( n X ) ! y as n ! +1. From this and X(t X ) 2 Ct(I X ) it follows that there is a sequence n, tn < n < n such that X(n X ) 2 f(N L (X )] N L (X )]) ; (L (X ) L (X ))g. There exist sequences n and n such that X(m + n X ) ! y and X(m + n X ) ! y as n ! +1, for arbitrary natural number m. In view of Lemma 3.1, X(m + n X ) = X n X(m X )] ! y as n ! +1 and X(m + n X ) = Xn X(m X )] ! y as n ! +1. This and X(t X ) 2 Ct(I X ) imply existence of a sequence n, tn < n < n, and w 2 f(N L (X )] N L (X )]) ; (L (X ) L (X ))g such that X(m + n X ) = Xn X(m X )] ! w. Hence, w 2 L (X ) which contradicts w 2 f(N L (X )] N L (X )]) ; (L (X ) L (X ))g because L (X ) L (X ) = L (X ). Hence, L (X ) and L (X ) are not disjoint, i.e. L (X ) is connected. + 1

3.3 System regimes 3.3.1 Forced regimes and the free regime
Denition 3.16 (a) The system (3.4) is in a forced regime if and only if there is t 2 < such that i(t) 6= 0. +
(b) The system (3.4) is in a free regime if and only if i(t) = 0 for all t 2 <+ .
The system (3.4) can be either in a forced or in a free regime. However, the system (3.7) is in a free regime.
3.3.2 Periodic regimes
Denition 3.17 The system (3.4) is in a periodic regime if and only if there is
2 <+ such that its generalised motions obey
X(t + X0 i) X(t X0 i): The minimal is called period. It is denoted by T . The generalised motion X(t X0 i) is called periodic (with period T ).
In literature it can be found that = 0, i.e. T = 0, is permitted, which means that time-invariant (elementwise constant) X(t X0 i) const is considered as a periodic motion.

3.3.3 Stationary regimes and stationary points
Denition 3.18 The system (3.4) is in a stationary regime if and only if its generalised motions through X0 obey X(t X0 i) = X0 8t 2 <+ : The point X0 is called a stationary point (stationary state, steady state), and it is denoted by Xs , X0 = Xs .
Theorem 3.21 In order for X 2 X0 to be a stationary point of the system (3.4) it is necessary and sucient that both (a) the system has forward-time unique generalised motion X(t X i) through X , and (b) fX i(t)] = 0 8t 2 <+ .
rrr
Proof. Necessity. Let X = Xs be a stationary point of the system (3.4). Then, in
view of Denition 3.18, any two generalised motions X 1 (t X i) and X 2(t X i) obey X k (t X i) = X 8t 2 <+ k = 1 2: Hence, the system (3.4) has the forward-time unique generalised motion X(t X i) = X through X , which obeys d X(t X i) = 0 8t 2 < : + dt This and (3.4) imply (b). Suciency. Let (a) and (b) hold and (t) = X for all t 2 <+ . Hence,
(0) = X and d dt (t) = 0 = f(t) i(t)] 8t 2 <+ : The last result shows that ( ) is a generalised motion of the system (3.4), (t) = X(t 0 X i) = X , for all t 2 <+ . Since X(t 0 X i) X is unique then X is a stationary point.

3.3.4 Equilibrium regimes and equilibrium points
Denition 3.19 The system (3.4) is in an equilibrium regime if and only if its generalised motions in the free regime obey X(t X0 0) = X0 8t 2 <+ : The point X0 is called an equilibrium point (an equilibrium state), and it is denoted by Xe , X0 = Xe . Theorem 3.22 In order for X 2 X0 to be an equilibrium point (an equilibrium state) of the system (3.4) it is necessary and sucient that both (a) the system has forward-time unique generalised motion X(t X i) through X in the free regime, and (b) f(X 0) = 0:
rrr
Proof. Theorem 3.22 results directly from Theorem 3.21 due to i(t) 0 (Denition 3.19). A direct consequence of Theorem 3.22 is the following result due to (3.5)
Corollary 3.1 In order for X = 0 to be an equilibrium point of the system (3.4) it is necessary and sucient that the system has forward-time unique generalised motion X(t 0 0) 0 through X = 0 in the free regime. Note 3.11 Theorem 3.21 and Theorem 3.22 directly apply to the system (3.7). Note 3.12 When we study equilibrium states and their properties it is the same to study them for the system (3.4) or for the system (3.7) due to (3.6) and Denition 3.19. The next two results generalise Theorem 2.10 and Corollary 2.11 by Nemytskii and Stepanov 157, p. 332].
Theorem 3.23 If, for any " 2 < , there exists a point y 2 N (" X ), such that the right half-trajectory X(< y 0) N (" X ), then X is an equilibrium point of the system (3.4) as soon as system generalised motions X(t X 0) 2 C (< X ). rrr +

By the condition of the theorem there is y 2 N (" X ) such that X(<+ y 0) N (" X ): The triangle property of a distance function yields X X( X 0)] < X X( y 0)] + X( y 0) X( X 0)] which with the above results (in which we set z = y) leads to X X( y 0)] + X( y 0) X( X 0)] < " + 2d < d so that X X( X 0)] < d: This contradicts existence of 2 <+ as assumed and proves the theorem. The requirement for X(t X0 0) 2 C0(<+ X0) can be omitted in case a point X is stable. This is explained by the following statement. Theorem 3.24 If X 2 X0 is stable point of the system (3.4) then it is an equilib-
rium point of the system rrr Proof. Let X 2 X0 be stable point of the system (3.4). Then (Denition 1.1 of the Section 1.1.1 and Note 1.2), for any " 2 <+ there is = (") 2 ]0 "] such that (X0 X ) < implies X(t X0 0) X ] < " for all t 2 <+
and for all the generalised motions of the system. Let "n 2 <+ be a sequence converging to zero as n ! +1. Then, ("n ) ! 0 as n ! +1. Since (X X ) < ("n ) for every n 2 f1 2 : : :g then for any generalised motion X(t X 0) holds X(t X 0) X ] < "n for all t 2 <+ : As n ! +1, "n ! 0 so that X(t X 0) X ] = 0 for all t 2 <+ and for every generalised motion X(t X 0). Equivalently, every generalised motion X(t X 0) obeys X(t X 0) = X for all t 2 <+ which proves that X is an equilibrium state of the system (Denition 3.19).

Theorem 3.25 Let generalised motions of the system (3.4) X(t X 0) 2 C (< X ). If for any " 2 < , there exists a point y 2 N (" X ) such that lim X(t y 0) : t ! +1] = X 2

Note 3.15 If we reconsider the system x_ = ;sign x (Example 3.7, Fig. 3.8), then we conclude that Se = f0g is the set of its equilibrium states and it is singleton (i.e. xe = 0 is its unique equilibrium state). For any x 2 < the generalised motion x(t x ) reaches Se = f0g in nite time that equals jx j. This does not contradict Corollary 3.2 because the system generalised motions are not continuous in x 2 ] ; for any 2 < and for every t 2 <. The same is valid for the system 0

3.5 Dynamical and generalised dynamical systems We shall present at rst the classical denition of dynamical systems 10], 120], 157], 218]. Then, it will be discussed from the point of view of the preceding results.
3.5.1 De nition and properties of dynamical systems Denition of dynamical systems
In the next denition \dynamical system" means \time-invariant continuous-time dynamical system". Denition 3.20 A system with motions (or generalised motions) X is a dynamical system if and only if its (generalised) motions have the properties P1 through P3: P1 Existence: Every system (generalised) motion X is dened in
X(0 X0) = X0 8X0 2
P2 Continuous Dependence: Every (generalised) motion X is continuous in (t X0) 2 <
Properties of dynamical systems Comment 3.11 What follows is due to Nemytskii and Stepanov 157, p. 327],
Zubov 218, p. 20], and La Salle 120, p. 28]. Property P2 can be interpreted in either of the following two equivalent ways: a) If (tn Xn ) 2 <
statement on motions, which is broadened to generalised motions. Theorem 3.29 For any (X ") 2
dynamical system. rrr Comment 3.12 Property P2 concerns two dierent (generalised) motions through two dierent initial points X and y at two dierent instants s and t, X(s y) and X(t X). However, Theorem 3.29 concerns such two (generalised) motions at the same time t 2 <. It in fact proves Note 3.9, that is that X(t X0) 2 C(I0 X0) implies both X(t X0) 2 Ct (I0 X0) and X(t X0 ) 2 C0(I0 X0).
Note 3.16 In view of Theorem 3.29 and Comment 3.12, we conclude that Theorems 3.15{3.20, 3.23, 3.25 and 3.28 and Corollary 3.2 hold for dynamical systems. Theorems 3.21, 3.22, 3.24, 3.26 and 3.27 are valid for dynamical systems because those theorems are general. From Property P2 we deduce uniqueness of motions.
Theorem 3.30 A dynamical system has a unique (generalised) motion X through every X0 2
Proof. The theorem can be proved in two ways. a) Let a system be dynamical. Definition 3.9 is valid. In view of Property P , Theorem 3.13 holds. Let it be assumed that the statement of Theorem 3.30 is false. Then, there exists ( X ) 2 < 0. Let ( ") 2 ] +1]0 and let = (" X ) 2

obey Theorem 3.13. Since > 0 and (X0 X0) = 0 then (X0 X0 ) < so that X 1( X0 ) X 2( X0 )] < ", due to Theorem 3.13. The last inequality contradicts X 1( X0 ) X 2( X0 )] = > ", which is the consequence of the assumption that > 0. Hence, = 0, or X 1 ( X0 ) = X 2 ( X0 ). This further contradicts the existence of 2 < at which the (generalised) motions X 1 and X 2 dier. Therefore, X 1(t X0 ) = X 2 (t X0) = X(t X0 ) for all t 2 < and every X0 2

Comment 3.13 Bhatia and Szego 10, p. 11] proved that every motion X of a dynamical system is a commutative group characterised by the following axioms, the rst three of which are axioms of a group:
(i) (ii) (iii) (iv)
Xt X(0 X0)] X(t + 0 X0) X(t X0 ): Xt X(;t X0 )] X(t ; t X0 ) X(0 X0): X(t Xs X(r X0 )]) X(t Xs + r X0]) X(t + s + r X0): Xt X(s X0 )] X(t + s X0 ) X(s + t X0) Xs X(t X0 )]:
Comment 3.14 Group Property P3 means that the (generalised) motion at time (t + s), which passes through X0 at t = 0, equals the motion at time t, which passes through X at t = 0, provided for X is taken X(s X0 ) achieved at time s from X0 at t = 0, Fig. 3.12. Comment 3.15 Let us consider the systems of the preceding examples. 2=3 a) dX dt = X was analysed in Example 3.1, Fig. 3.1. It is not a dynamical system because it does not have a unique motion (or generalised motion) through X0 = 0 at t = 0, i.e. not through every X0 2 < at t = 0 (Theorem 3.14).
b) dX = sgn X was considered in Example 3.2, Fig. 3.2, and Example 3.6, dt Fig. 3.7. Its motions through any (X0 6= 0) 2 < at t = 0 are not dened on <, and its generalised motions do not have Group Property P3 which will be shown as follows: let t = 3jX0j 2 <+ , s = ;2jX0 j 2 <; and sgn 0 2 f;1 0 +1g. Then, for X0 2 <+ , the generalised motion is determined by

X(s X0 ) = 0 and X(t X0 ) = X0 + t sgn X0 = X0 + 3jX0j sgn X0 = 4X0. Further, X(s+t X0 ) = X(;2jX0 j+3jX0j X0) = X0 +jX0 j sgn X0 = 2X0 , and Xt X(s X0 )] = X(t 0) = X(3jX0j 0) = X0 + 3jX0j sgn X0 = 4X0 Hence, Xt X(s X0 )] 6= X(s + t X0 ). The system is not a dynamical system.
c) dX = ;sgn X , Example 3.3, Fig. 3.3, and Example 3.7. Fig. 3.8. Let dt X0 2 <+ , s 2 ] ; 1 ;2X0, t = ; 2s . Then, X(t X0 ) = 0, Xs X(t X0 )] = X(s 0) = 0, X(t + s X0 ) = X ; 2s + s X0 = X 2s X0 = X0 ; 2s sign X0 = X0 ; 2s > 2X0. Hence, Xs X(t X0 )] 6= X(t + s X0 ). The Property P3 is not realised. The system is not a dynamical system.
dX
d) dt = ;X 1=2 of Example 3.4, Fig. 3.4, does not obey Property P1. It is not a dynamical system.
(e) dX = X 3 is considered in Example 3.5, Fig. 3.5. It does not satisfy Properdt ty P1 because motions (which coincide with generalised motions) do not exist 1 on ;1 ; 2X 2 for every (X0 6= 0) 2 <. The system is not a 0 dynamical system.

The motions are dened and continuous in (t X0 ) 2 < <, and dierentiable in t 2 I0 for all X0 2 <. The system has a unique motion through every X0 2 < at t = 0, Fig. 3.13. Hence, the system motions possess Property P1 and Property P2. They do not possess Property P3, which can be veried as follows. Let for example X0 2 ]0 1, s 2 ln jX0j +1 and t 2 (ln jX0 j ; s) +1.

Hence, the system is not a dynamical system (Denition 3.9).
Comment 3.16 The function f of the system X_ = ;sat X , f(X) = ;sat X , is dierentiable in X 2 (< ; f;1 1g). However, the motions are dierentiable in time t for all t 2 < and every X 2 <. This means they are dierentiable also at time t when jX(t X )j = 1, which further means sat X(t X ) = sign X , (X = 6 0) 2 <. However, at that moment f is not dierentiable with respect to X = X(t X ). This illustrates that dierentiability of f on

3.6 Stability properties and invariance properties of sets At rst we generalise Theorem 1.5.24 by Bhatia and Szeg(o 10, p. 54] to systems that need not be dynamical systems (in the sense of the classical mathematical Denition 3.20). In what follows we consider the system (3.7) that has generalised motions X(t X0).

Hence, X0 2 N M (" Aj ) Aj ] which guarantees X(t X0) 2 N (" Aj ), 8t 2 <+ , due to stability of Aj . This result and (3.33) imply further X(t X0) 2 N (" A), 8t 2 <+ , which means stability of A because X(t X0) is arbitrary generalised motion of the system (3.7).
3.7 Invariance features of stability domains properties Invariance properties of stability domains of sets hold also for stability domains of equilibrium states, which is obvious if we dene a set A = fXe g. With this in mind it su ces to consider only invariance properties of stability domains of sets.
Theorem 3.33 Let the system (3.7) be a generalised dynamical system. Let a set A, A
Then there is " 2 <+ such that X(t X0 ) 2 N (" A) for all t 2 <+ . Hence, X0 2 Dsc (" A) yields X(t X0 ) 2 Dsc (" A) Dsc(A) for all t 2 <+ and proves positive invariance of Dsc (A). The next results broaden the validity of the classical theorems on properties of the domain of attraction from the framework of dynamical systems to generalised dynamical systems.

Comment 3.19. Various other qualitative features of domains of stability properties were discovered and described by Bhatia and Szego 10], Genesio et al. 53] and Chiang and Thorp 30]. We shall particularly consider stability of equilibrium states on the boundaries of domains of stability properties.
3.8 Features of equilibrium states on boundaries of domains of stability properties At rst we establish a theorem discovering that the boundary of attraction domain cannot contain either a stable or an attractive equilibrium state.

Theorem 3.36 If a set A 0 for all t 2 <+ that contradicts X0 2 Da (A). Therefore, Xe cannot be stable. Xe cannot be attractive. If Xe were attractive then there would exist $ > 0 such that (X0 Xe ) < $ implies lim fX(t X0) Xe ] : t ! +1g = 0. Let X0 2 N ($ Xe) \ Da (A)]. Then lim fX(t X0 ) A] : t ! +1g > 0 that contradicts X0 2 Da (A). Hence Xe 2 @ Da (A) cannot be attractive. This theorem yields the following:

Foundations of the Lyapunov method 4.1 Introductory comment Denitions of stability properties and of their domains are stated via (generalised) motions of systems. A test of a stability feature via its denition demands knowledge of system (generalised) motions (for innitely many dierent initial points X0 from a neighbourhood of an equilibrium state or a set). Determination of the (generalised) motions further requires solving the system's mathematical model, which is rarely possible analytically in the closed form for nonlinear systems described by nonlinear rst-order vector dierential equation (4.1): dX = f(X): (4.1) dt Papers by Poincar&e 165], 166] inspired Lyapunov 127] to pose the problem of testing stability properties by using the equation (4.1) directly rather than by solving it. If f(X) = AX the system is linear and stability properties are tested via real parts of the eigenvalues of the matrix A, and eventually also via their multiplicities. However, when f is nonlinear, then it was necessary to discover another, essentially dierent, method. It was discovered and established in 1892 by Lyapunov 127] and has been well-known as the direct method of Lyapunov, or the second method of Lyapunov, or simply as the Lyapunov method. It is based on the concept of sign denite functions v :
_ at The behaviour of v along X(t X0) is now studied via the sign of v(X) every X 2 B . This immediately poses questions of the sense, origin and construction of a function v for a given system (4.1). These questions will be mathematically claried in the next chapter. Their excellent physical clarication in the framework of conservative systems can be found in the book by Rouche and Mawhin 178, pp. 3{4]. In what follows the classic Lyapunov method and the related results will be briey synthesised. For extended studies see 1]{10], 14]{17], 22]{33], 36]{38], 40]{42], 45]{47], 49], 51], 53]{56], 59], 64], 66]{70], 72], 73], 80], 87]{90], 94]{98], 100]{102], 104], 106]{108], 112]{124], 126], 128]{132], 134]{140], 147]{149], 151]{155], 158]{160], 167], 170], 171], 174]{193], 196]{204], 210]{218].

4.2.4 Positive de nite functions and comparison functions
Denitions 4.4 and 3.6 Criterion by Rouche and Mawhin 10, p. 10] directly yield the following result. Lemma 4.5 In order for a function v : S ! <, S
1) there is a neighbourhood N (A) S , (N (A)= S ), such that v(X) 2 CN (A)], 2) v(X) 0 for all x 2 A, and v(X) = 0 for every X 2 @ A, 3) there are 2 <+ obeying N ( A) S (N ( A) S ) and ' 2 K 0
such that v(X) '(X A)] for all X 2 N ( A) (' 2 K 0 ] such that v(X) '(X A)] for all X 2 S ), respectively rrr
Example 4.4 Let
1) v(x) = sin jxj and S = ] ; , 2 ]0 . Then, '( ) = sin 2 K is a comparison function satisfying v(x) '(x O)] = '(jxj) = sin jxj because sin jxj sin jxj for all x 2 ] ; . Notice that there is not a comparison function ' 2 K 0] for sin jxj because sin jxj ! 0 as jxj ! that requires '() = 0, which is impossible for ' 2 K 0] . However, v is positive denite on ] ; . 2) v(X) = (kX k ; 1) 1 ; sign (1 ; kX k)]. It is globally positive denite with respect to the set A = B1 . The function '( ) = 2 K< obeys v(X) '(X A)] for all X 2
No ' 2 K can satisfy it. However, if we take 2 <+ arbitrary large then there is ' 2 K 0 ] obeying v(X) = (kX k ; 1) 1 ; sign (1 ; kX k)] exp (1 ; kX k) ' (X A)]. Such a comparison function ' 2 K is dened by ' (X A)] = (X A) exp (;) where 2 ]0 1] can be arbitrarily accepted and (X A) = 1=2(kX k ; 1) 1 ; sign (1 ; kX k)]. This explains why the closure S of the set S is used in Lemma 4.5.

Proof. Let = min (X A) : X 2 @ V ]. Let y 2 @ N ( A). Then, v(y) = w() considered as a function of with respect to the xed y varies between zero and for -variation between zero and one. Thus, there exists at least one 2 ]0 1 such that v(y) = 2 ]0 . Let m be minimal such . Then, the set fX : X = m y y 2 @ N ( A)g determines a closed hypersurface v(X) = enclosing the set A. Note 4.8 The hypersurface v(X) = is closed for any 2 < if v(X) '(X A)] holds for all X 2
Example 4.7 Let, by following Hahn 94, p. 99], v(X) = (X(XA)A+) 1 , X 2 < , and A be a compact set in < . Then v(X) = > 1 is not closed. In fact such a v does not exist because v(X) = yields (X A) = ; ; 1 < 0, which is not 2

Now, Lemma 4.1, Lemma 4.2 and Lemma 4.7 imply that the hypersurfaces are closed and do not intersect, which with the monotonous decreasing of vZ(t)] prove that v(X) = 1 encloses v(X) = 2 . If t2 = +1 then Z(t2 ) 2 @ A so that vZ(t2 )] = 2 = 0 due to positive deniteness of v on S . Thus, the statement of the lemma is true for 0 2 < 1 < .

1) Denition 4.12 yields (Z U Z) = +1. Hence, u(Z ; Z) = 0. 2) (X U Z) ! 0 as kX k ! +1 in case N = 0, 8(X ; Z) 2 N , X 6= Z. Since u(X ;Z) ! 0 as X !

Hence, (1X U Z) > (2X U Z), where (iX U Z) i(X ; Z)] 2 @ U , i = 1 2. The last inequality implies u1(X ; Z)] < u2(X ; Z)]. This and u(Z ; Z) = 0 prove radial increasing of u on N with respect to Z. 5) Since (X U Z) = 1 i (X ; Z) 2 @ U , it now immediately results (due to 1) and 4)) u(X ; Z) 1 for (X ; Z) 2 N i (X ; Z) 2 U and u(X ; Z) = 1 for (X ; Z) 2 N i (X ; Z) 2 @ U , which completes the proof if we set = 1. (b) If U is O-uniquely bounded then Z = 0 (Denition 4.12). Suciency. (a) Let all the conditions of the lemma hold. Let (X U Z) = u(X ; Z)];1 = (X ; Z U ). Radial increasing of u on N from u = 0 with respect to Z implies radial decreasing of on N from (Z U Z) = +1, that is (1X U Z) >
(2 X U Z), i 2 <+ , 1 < 2, i (X ; Z) 2 N , i = 1 2. It now follows that
(y U Z) = 1 for (y ; Z) 2 N i (y ; Z) 2 @ U due to 5.2) and i(X ; Z)] 2 @ U , i = 1 2, i 1 = 2 = (X U Z), 8(X ; Z) 2 N , X 6= Z. Hence, U is uniquely bounded (Denition 4.12).

Applications of Lemma 4.16 will be illustrated by an example in which we shall make use of a function ! : < < ! < dened by
8 ;1 (x 2 <; and x_ 2 <) or (x = 0 and x_ 2 <;) > > < !(x x) _ = > 0 (x = 0 and x_ = 0) > : +1 (x 2 <+ and x_ 2 <) or (x = 0 and x_ 2 <+ ):
With the function ! we associate :
Example 4.15 Let v : < ! < , v(x) = jxj, and n = 1 so that the system (4.1) takes the scalar form

dx = f(x): dt Let the system have generalised motion x(t x0) 2 C0(I0 X0), X0 X <1 . The function v is globally Lipschitzian. We may apply Lemma 4.16, jx + f(x)j ; jxj + + D v(X) = lim sup :!0 =

Hence, after cancelling x and (;x), and using x_ = f(x), we get

Now we can make use of the function ! so that
D jxj = !(x x)_ x_ = !(x x_ )f(x) = !x f(x)]f(x): Obviously, D jxj = D jxj. Example 4.16 Let v :

Proof 120]. Let at rst the conditions 1) through 3) hold. Let it be assumed that y 2 L (X ) \ X . Then l (X ) = +1, and there is a sequence tn such that X(tn X ) ! y and tn ! +1 as n ! +1. Now, vX(tn X )] ! v(y) as n ! +1 (due to 1)) since vX(t X )] = (t) is nonincreasing with respect to t due to 2) (Lemma 4.15) then vX(t X )] v(y) for all t 2 < and there is such that vX(t X )] ! as t ! +1. Hence, for such , v(y) = for each y 2 L (X ). Now, L (X ) is weakly invariant, and therefore L (X ) E , and hence in M . This proves L (X ) \ X M \ V ; ( ). If, in addition to 1){3), the condition 4) also holds, then L (X ) is invariant and L (X ) M \ V ; ( ). Since X(t X ) ! L (X ) as t ! +1, then X(t X ) ! M \ V ; ( ) as t ! +1. +

follows the existence of a sequence tn , tn 2 0 , tn ! as n ! +1, such that vX(tn;1 X0)] < vX(tn X0)]. This inequality contradicts the conditions 1) and 2) due to Lemma 4.15 and X(tk X0 ) 2 V (A), k = n ; 1 n. The contradiction is a consequence of the assumption that V (A) is not positively invariant, which proves its positive invariance. This further implies vX(t X0 )] v(X0 ) < for all t 2 <+ (Lemma 4.15). Hence, L+ (X0 ) V (A), i.e. L+ (X0 ) \ @ V (A) = that now proves positive precompactness of V (A) relative to itself.

Necessity. Let A be asymptotically stable, hence stable and attractive (Deni-
tion 1.6, Section 1.1.3). Let " 2 <+ be arbitrary and = (" A) 2 <+ obey Denition 1.3, Section 1.1.1. Let $ > 0 and (X0 A) = 2 <+ obey Denition 1.5, Section 1.1.2. Now let = min ( $) 2 <+ , 2 ]1 +1 be arbitrary and xed, X 2 N ( A) ; A] be arbitrary, = 'I f;2'(X A)]g 2 <+ for ' 2 K 0"]. v(X) = sup ('fX(t + t X) A]g 11++ : 2 <+ ): The right hand side of this equation is independent of t because X(t + t X) X( 0 X) X( X) due to time-invariance of the system (4.1). This claries that v does not depend on time t. Notice that () = 11++ 2 C(<+ ) sup () : 2 <+ ] = : These facts and X(t X0 ) 2 Ct<+ N ( A)] \ C0 <+ N ( A)] due to N ( A)
N ( A) and Denition 1.3, Section 1.1.1, prove (i) v(X) 2 CN ( A)]. Stability of A implies X(t X0 ) A] = 0 for all t 2 <+ and each X0 2 A (Theorem 3.31, Section 3.6). Hence, (ii) v(X) = 0 for all X 2 A. The denition of v implies directly (iii) v(X) '(X A)] for all X 2 N ( A). Let N (A) = N ( A). Therefore, N (A) is a connected neighbourhood of A. Altogether, (i){(iii) show that v is positively denite with respect to A on N (A), © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
which proves necessity of 1). From the denitions of = (X A) (Denition 1.5, Section 1.1.2) it follows X(t X) A] < for all t 2 ] +1 which together with the denition of yield 'fX(t X) A]g < '( ) = '('I f;2'(X A)]g) = ;2 '(X A)] for all t 2 ] +1. Hence, ;2 'fX( X) A]g 11++ < f '(X A)]g < '(X A)] for all t 2 ] +1. This result shows that there is ^ 2 0 ] such that v(X) = 'fX(t + ^ t X) A]g 11++^ ^ : Let 2 <+ be arbitrarily small and X = X(t + t X) X( 0 X) X( X). Then, by using Theorem 3.14 (Section 3.2.6), we derive v(X ) = sup ('fX(t + + t + X ) A]g 11++ : 2 <+ ) = = sup ('fX(t + + t X) A]g 11++ : 2 <+ ) = = sup ('fX( + X) A]g 11++ : 2 <+ ) = : = 'fX( + ^ X) A]g 11++^ ^ Notice that (see Halanay 95]) for = + ^ 2 + ] <+ 1 + ^ = 1 + 1 ; ( ; 1) 1 + ^ 1+ (1 + ^ )(1 + ) > 0: Therefore, for = + ^ , v(X ) = vX( X)] =

Now, we set v(X) on the left hand side of the preceding inequality, divide the new one by 2 <+ and take lim sup ( ) of both sides so as to get the following, by using ^ = ; and 2 + ] ! 0+ ] as ! 0+ , ; v(X) : ! 0+ D+ v(X) = lim sup vX( X)] ;1 + lim sup ; (1 + ; )(1 v(X) : ! 0 + ) 1)v(X) 8X 2 N (A): ; (1(+ ;)(1 + )

for all X 2 A, which veries necessity of 3). Suciency. Let the conditions of the theorem hold. Then all the conditions of
Theorem 4.5 are satised implying stability of the set A. Let 2 <+ and 2 <+ be dened as in Lemma 4.19, which is possible due to positive deniteness of v with respect to A on N (A) (Lemma 4.5). Now all the conditions of Lemma 4.19 are satised so that V (A) is positively invariant and positively precompact relative to itself for any 2 ]0 . Let $ 2 <+ be such that N ($ A) V (A) for arbitrary
2]0 . Then, X0 2 N ($ A) implies X(t X0 ) 2 V (A) for all t 2 <+ . From the conditions 2) and 3) follows E0 = fX : X 2 V (A) D+ v(X) = 0g = A so that M A and M0 = M \ V (A) A. With these facts and S = V (A) we conclude that the conditions 1){6) of Lemma 4.17 are satised (M0 is compact because it is closed by the denition and subset of compact set A). Hence, M0 is attractive and V (A) Da (M0 ), which proves attraction of A due to M0 A and V (A) Da (A). A is stable and attractive. Therefore, it is asymptotically stable. Notice that M0 = M0 A = A and v(X) = 0 on A guarantee v(X) = const: on @ M0 so that all the conditions 1){6) of Lemma 4.17 are fullled, which proves immediately (in another way) asymptotic stability of A.
Note 4.12 The classical form of Theorem 4.7, when it is not proved via the LaSalle
principle diers from the form given here for the condition 2). The classical form of condition 2) reads as follows: 2 0 ) there is a positive denite function with respect to A on N (A) such that D+ v(X) ;(X) for all X 2 N (A):
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
Necessity of this condition is proved essentially in the proof of necessity of the conditions of Theorem 4.7 because dened by 1)v(X) (X) = (1(+ ;)(1 ; ) is positive denite on N (A) and obeys the above condition 20 ). For su ciency we have just to conclude that the above condition 20) guarantees validity of the condition 2) of Theorem 4.7. Altogether, Theorem 4.7 is valid nevertheless we use the condition 2) or 20 ).
4.6.2 Complete global asymptotic stability of sets
Barbashin and Krasovskii 6] extended the asymptotic stability conditions to those for global asymptotic stability by requiring radial unboundedness of the function v.

for absolute stability of Lurie nonlinear systems. Various other purely algebraic criteria for absolute stability of Lurie systems were established in 68], 69]. One of them will be presented. It does not require matrix deniteness tests for all L 2 L. However, the whole set of its conditions is only su cient.

Theorem 4.15 In order for the functional family F0 (4.9) to be a Lyapunov functional family on N0 (0 K]) for the system (4.3) in the case D = 0, it is necessary that the conditions 1), 2a) and 2b) hold and is sucient that all the conditions 1) through 2d) are valid: 1) Real parts Re i (A) of all eigenvalues i (A) of the matrix A are negative,
Re i (A) < 0 for every i = 1 2 : : : n 2) The matrices H and - are such that a) b) c) d)

Proof. Let D = 0 in (4.3) and L = 0 K]. Necessity. f(w) 0 is in N0 (L), which reduces (4.3a) to X_ = AX implying the
necessity of 1), and reduces vf to vf (X) = X T HX that yields necessity of 2a) due to 2) of Denition 4.16 by accepting F0 (4.9) to be Lyapunov functional family on N0 (L) for the system (4.3). For the same reasons f(w) = Kw 2 N0 (L) implies the condition 2b) by noting that then vf (X) = X T (H + C T K-C)X. Suciency. Notice that vf obeys
min X T HX X T (H + C T K-C)X] vf (X)
max X T HX X T (H + C T K-C)X] for every X 2

(4.10c) (4.10d) (4.10e)
The condition 2c) implies det ; 6= 0 so that det Y 6= 0 that enables solving the equation (4.10d) for X, X = (HB+P)Y ;1 . The last equation and (4.10e) yield N = AT H+HA+(HB+P )(Y T Y );1 (HB+P)T = AT H+HA+(HB+P );;1 (HB+P)T due to (4.10c). This result, (4.10a) and (4.10b) imply
; ; N = AT H + HA + AT C T - + C T + HB 2K ;1 ; -CB ; B T C T - ;1
;AT C T - + C T + HB T :
The condition 2d) shows that N is negative denite. Now, we determine v_ f (X) = X_ T HX + X T H X_ + f T -w_ + w_ T -f along motions of the system (4.3) with D = 0, and add on and subtract from the right hand side the term = 2f T (w ; K ;1 f) by observing that 0 for all w 2 <m due to f 2 N0 (L) and L = 0 K]. After carrying out all calculations and using the equations (4.10) we get v_ f (x) = X T NX ; kX T X ; Y f(w)k2 ; X T NX 8X 2
Matrix Popov criterion
The method by Popov 168] is based on the use of the frequency matrix function F of the linear part of the Lurie system that will be considered for the case D = 0, that is, dX = Ax + Bf(w) (4.11a) dt w = CX: (4.11b) The matrix transfer function G of the linear part of the system with input f and output (;w), G(s) = C(A ; sI);1 B yields the matrix frequency p function F of the linear part of the system, F (j!) = G(s)js=j! , ! 2 <, j = ;1, that is F (j!) = C(A ; j!I);1 B: Its hermitian part He F(j!) is now determined by He F (j!) = 21 F (j!) + F T (;j!) : The following lemma is known as the Yakubovich{Kalman lemma 168]:

4.8 Stability domain estimates Through this section we consider the system (4.1). For various approaches to and results on stability domain estimates see 25], 30], 49], 51], 53], 54], 68], 70], 72], 89], 90], 98], 106], 107], 113], 115], 119], 120], 124], 128], 151], 158], 159], 180], 181], 184]{187], 197], 204], 210]{216].
4.8.1 De nitions of stability domain estimates
If the necessary and su cient conditions for a set to be the stability domain of another set, or of X = 0, cannot be eectively applied, then we are looking for as large as possible estimates of stability domains in the sense of the following denition:
Denition 4.17 (a) A set S , S
1) S is a connected neighbourhood of the set A, 2) S is a subset of Dsc(A): S Dsc (A). (b) Esc(A) will be denoted by Esc: Esc (A) = Esc if and only if A = O = f0g.
Notice that we allow any motion X starting from Esc (A) at t = 0 to leave Esc(A), X(t X0) 2 Esc (A) at some t 2 <+ although X0 2 Esc(A), rather than to demand positive invariance of Esc (A) by denition because it is not crucial. The crucial property is that Esc (A) Dsc (A), i.e. that for every X0 2 Esc (A) there is " 2 <+ such that X(t X0 ) Esc(A)] < " for all t 2 <+ .
4.8.2 Estimates of the stability domain of a set
Theorem 4.19 Let the system (4.1) have generalised motions X(t X ) 2 C (I X ), X X 0, 2 < and a function v : N ( A) ! < satisfying 1){5), 1) S is an open connected neighbourhood of A and subset of N ( A): A S

Proof. Let all the conditions of the theorem be valid. Then the set A is stable (Theorem 4.5). Let " 2 < be arbitrary, 2 < obey V (A) N (" A) \ S ]. The conditions 2){5) of the theorem guarantee positive invariance of V (A) (Lemma 4.18) so that for any X 2 V (A), X(t X ) 2 V (A) for all t 2 < , hence X(t X ) 2 N (" A) for all t 2 < . This implies V (A) Dsc (" A) and V (A) Dsc (A). Hence, S \ Dsc (A) =6 . Let now X 2 S be arbitrary. Let 2 v(X ) ]. The denition of V (A) and the conditions 2){4) guarantee V1 (A) V2 (A) and @ V1 (A) \ @ V2 (A) = , 0 < < so that X 2 V (A). Hence, V (A) is also positively invariant. Let " 2 < be such that V (A) N (" A). Such " exists because V (A) is bounded (condition 4). Altogether, X 2 V (A) implies X(t X ) 2 V (A) for all t 2 < , hence X(t X ) 2 S \ N (" A)] for all t 2 < . This proves the positive invariance of S and V (A) Dsc (" A) Dsc (A), 8 2 ]0 ], hence S Dsc(A). +

Theorem 4.22 Let the system (4.1) have generalised motions X(t X ) 2 C(I X ), (X = 0) 2 X X 0, 2 < and a function v : N ( 0) ! < satisfying 1){5): 1) S is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0 and subset of N ( 0): O S N ( 0), 2) v is positive denite on N ( 0), 3) V = S , 4) V is bounded for every 2 ]0 ], 0

4.9 Asymptotic stability domain and estimates In what follows the system (4.1) is assumed.
4.9.1 Classical approach
The classical approach to determination of the asymptotic stability domain is based on the Lyapunov method used via the existence of a v function with appropriate properties.
Zubov theorem
The Zubov theorem 218, Theorem 19, pp. 52-53], was most probably the rst result of an exact determination of the asymptotic stability domain Ds of X = 0. It has had a great theoretical signicance and inuence on the study of the Lyapunov function construction problem 3], 38], 46], 101], 102], 131], 196]. For other approaches to this problem see 4], 5], 7], 26], 28], 31], 32], 36], 46], 47], 59], 97], 100]{102], 104], 112], 117], 123], 126], 131], 132], 153]{155], 160], 167], 170], 171], 174]{176], 182], 183], 190], 199]{203]. The Zubov theorem takes the following form in this framework:
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
Theorem 4.25 (Zubov theorem) Let the function f of the system (4.1) be continuously dierentiable on a closed hyperball B for some 2 < . In order for an open invariant set S , S B , containing a certain neighbourhood of a closed invariant set M, M B , to be the domain of asymptotic stability of the asymptotically stable set M, it is necessary and sucient that there exist two functions v +
and having the following properties:
1) The function v is dened and continuous on S , and the function is dened and continuous on 0 for X 2 0 it is possible to nd quantities 1 and 1 such that
v(X) < ; 1 for (X M) 2 and
(X) > 2 for (X M) 2 : 4) The functions v and tend to 0 as (X M) ! 0. 5) If there exists a point y 62 M, y 2 @ S then lim v(X) : (X y) ! 0] = ;1. 6) dv(X) = (X) 1 + v(X)].
rrr dt The Zubov theorem is valid for smooth systems described by continuously dierentiable function f in (4.1). The theorem assumes that the set M is asymptotically stable. Furthermore, the theorem is expressed in terms of the existence of the functions v and . It does not determine any guideline for a choice of either. The Zubov theorem is directly applicable to the state X = 0. It su ces to set M = f0g. For the proof of the Zubov theorem see 218, p. 53].
Knobloch{Kappel theorem
Knobloch and Kappel derived several interesting results in 114] for a special class of systems described by (4.1). They are those which obey the following assumption:
Assumption 4.4 The function f, (4.1), has the following properties: 1) f(0) = 0, 2) f is dened with continuous partial derivatives on
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
Theorem 4.26 (Knobloch{Kappel theorem) Let Assumption 4.4 hold. Let
: 0 for all X = 6 0, 3) the function has a positive lower limit on every subset of the set fX : kX k "g, " > 0. Then, there is a unique function v that is continuously dierentiable on D: v(X) 2 C (D) and obeys grad v(X)]T f(X) = ; (X) for all X 2 D and v(0) = 0: (2)
(1)
Besides, v satises the following conditions: (a) v(X) > 0 for X 6= 0, and (b) lim v(X) : X ! @ D X 2 D] = 1.
rrr
The proof is given in 114, the proof of Theorem 10.3, p. 171]. Notice that the conditions of Assumption 4.4 assume knowledge that X = 0 is asymptotically stable. Notice also that the choice of a function obeying 1) through 3) of Theorem 4.26 is arbitrary, that it is not stated in terms of the existence of v and assumes knowledge of D.
Vanelli{Vidyasagar results
Vanelli and Vidyasagar established a series of very interesting results on generation of a system Lyapunov function 198]. The main results will be presented without proofs that are given in 198]. The Vanelli{Vidyasagar approach and all their results in 198] are based on the following assumption.
Assumption 4.5 (a) The system (4.1) has a unique solution X(t X ) through each initial state X 2
0
(b) The solution X(t X0) depends continuously on X0 . (c) The state X = 0 is asymptotically stable equilibrium state of the system. The condition (c) of Assumption 4.5 shows that X = 0 has the domain D of asymptotic stability and the domain Da of attraction so that (Theorem 3.35, Section 3.7) Da = D = Dac = Dc . © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
Theorem 4.27 Let Assumption 4.5 hold. If a set S
are such that: (i) v(0) = 0, v(X) > 0 for all X 2 (S ; O): v is positive denite on S ,
v(X(t X)) ; v(X)
: t ! 0 is well dened at all X 2 S , (ii) Dr v(X) = lim t and satises Dr v(X) = ;(X) for all X 2 S , and (iii) v(X) ! +1 as X ! @ S and/or as kX k ! +1, then S = D. rrr +
This theorem provides su cient conditions for a set S to be the asymptotic stability domain D. Under an additional requirement on the system, the conditions are also necessary: Theorem 4.28 Let Assumption 4.5 hold and f be Lipschitz continuous on D.
Then, in order for an open set S containing O to be the domain of asymptotic stability of X = 0, it is necessary and sucient that there exist a continuous function v : S ! <+ and a positive denite function such that (i){(iii) of Theorem 4.27 are satised. rrr
Notice that this theorem requires knowledge of the Lipschitzian property of the function f on D, which essentially requests knowledge of asymptotic stability domain itself. Both Theorem 4.27 and Theorem 4.28 state the conditions in the form of the existence of a function v with the described properties. The same conclusion is valid for the next theorem that is based on the following important lemma: Lemma 4.21 Let Assumption 4.5 hold. Suppose v is a continuous function on some hyperball B such that v(0) = 0, and Dr v is negative denite. Then v is
rrr
positive denite.
Theorem 4.29 Let Assumption 4.5 hold. Suppose f is Lipschitz continuous on D, and suppose v is a continuous function on some closed hyperball B such that v(0) = 0 and Dr v is negative denite on B . Then there exists a (maximal Lyapunov) function vm that agrees with v on B and obeys (i){(v): (i) vm : 0 for all X 2 (D ; O), (iii) vm (X) < +1 i X 2 D, (iv) vm (X) ! +1 as X ! @ D and/or kX k ! +1, (v) Dr v is well dened and negative denite over D. rrr +
Vanelli and Vidyasagar used 198] the preceding results by themselves to develop a numerical computer aided procedure to generate a system Lyapunov function. It is explained in Section 4.9.4.

4.9.2 De nition of asymptotic stability domain estimate
The classical results do not provide a complete solution to the problems of an exact generation of a system Lyapunov function v and of an exact determination of the asymptotic stability domain. Therefore we are often satised with the best possible estimate.
Denition 4.18 (a) A set S , S
1) S is a connected neighbourhood of the set A, 2) S is a subset of Dac (A), S Dac (A). (b) Eac (A) will be denoted by Eac , Eac(A) = Eac if and only if A = O.
Denition 4.19 (a) A set S , S
1) S is a connected neighbourhood of the set A, 2) S is a subset of Dc (A), S Dc (A). (b) Ec (A) will be denoted by Ec , Ec(A) = Ec if and only if A = O.
Note 4.15 Ec (A) = Esc(A) \ Eac (A) (Denitions 4.17{4.19).
4.9.3 Estimates of the asymptotic stability domain of a set
Theorem 4.30 Let the system (4.1) have generalised motions X(t X ) 2 C (I X ), X X 0, 2 < and a function v : N ( A) ! < satisfying 1){6), 1) S is an open connected neighbourhood of A and subset of N ( A): A S = S N ( A), 2) v is positive denite with respect to A on N ( A), 3) V (A) = S , 4) V (A) is bounded for every 2 ]0 ], 5) D v(X) 0 for all X 2 N ( A), 0

© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
Proof. Let all the conditions 1){6) hold. Then all the conditions of Theorem 4.18 are satised, which proves that S is an estimate of Dsc (A). From the proof of Theorem 4.19 it follows that S is positively invariant. The same was proved to hold for V (A) for any 2 ]0 ] (Lemma 4.18). Hence, S is positively precompact relative to itself. This, the conditions 1), 2), 5), and 6), together with the existence of generalised motions prove X(t X ) ! A as t ! +1 for every X 2 S . Since S is positively invariant we may now conclude that S Da (A). Altogether, S Dac (A) \ Dsc(A) = Dc (A) because Da (A) = Dac (A) (Theorem 4.35, 0

Section 3.7).
Verication of the condition 6) can be di cult. To avoid it we state the following result. Theorem 4.31 Let the system (4.1) have generalised motions X(t X0 ) 2 C0(I0 X0), X0 X 0, 2 <+ and a function v : N ( A) ! <+ satisfying 1){6), 1) S is an open connected neighbourhood of A and subset of N ( A): A S = S N ( A), 2) v is positive denite with respect to A on N ( A), 3) V (A) = S , 4) V (A) is bounded for every 2 ]0 ], 5) D+ v(X) = 0 for all X 2 A, and 6) D+ v(X) < 0 for all (X 62 A) 2 N ( A).
rrr
Proof. The conditions 5) and 6) show that E = fX : X 2 N ( A) D v(X) = 0g = A. This shows that A can be the largest invariant set in E , which together with conditions 1){5) imply S Dc(A) (Theorem 4.30). +

In order for the neighbourhood Nu (A) to be an estimate of the strict domain Dc (A) of asymptotic stability of A, Nu (A) = Ec (A), it is sucient that 1) D+ v(X) < 0 for all X 2 Nu(A) ; A], and 2) D+ v(X) = 0 for all X 2 A.

Proof. Let all the conditions hold. Lemma 4.13 is therefore valid, which shows that all the conditions of Theorem 4.34 are satised for S = Nu (A). Note 4.16 When the system (4.1) has generalised motions X(t X ) 2 C (I X ) and Dc (A) then D(A) = Dc (A). Evidently Ec (A) is an estimate of both Dc (A) and D(A). 0

Proof. Let A = O. Theorem 4.30 becomes Theorem 4.35. If we wish to avoid verication of the condition 6) then we can use the following result.
Theorem 4.36 Let the system (4.1) have generalised motions X(t X ) 2 C (I X ), X X 0, 2 < and a function v : N ( O) ! < satisfying 1){6), 1) S is an open connected neighbourhood of O and subset of N ( O), O S = S N ( O), 2) v is positive denite on N ( O), 3) V = S , 4) V is bounded for every 2 ]0 ], 5) D v(X) = 0 for X = 0, 0

Proof. Theorem 4.37 follows from Theorem 4.32 for A = O. The test of condition 5) can be avoided as explained by the following result.

Proof. Theorem 4.33 reduces to Theorem 4.38 in the case A = O. The next Theorem relies on properties of O-uniquely bounded sets, which determine the form of v.

Vanelli{Vidyasagar approach
What follows further exposes the approach by Vanelli and Vidyasagar, which is based on their results presented in Section 4.9.1 198]. It assumes validity of Assumption 4.5 as well as the following:
Assumption 4.6 The function f(4:1) is analytic and can be expressed in the form f(X) =
1 X i=1
fi (X)
where fi is a homogenous function of degree i.
Example 4.17 (a) f (X) = AX represents a homogenous function of degree i = 1. (b) f (X) = XX T 1 represents a homogenous function of the second degree, i = 2. 1
2
(c) f3 (X) = X T XX represents a homogenous function of degree i = 3.
A tentative Lyapunov function v for the system (4.1) is accepted in the form of a real rational function with n(X) and d(X) denoting its numerator and denominator polynomial, respectively, v(X) = n(X) (4.13) d(X) where n and d are assumed in the next form that enables us to use a recursive procedure, n(X) =

Chapter 5
Novel development of the Lyapunov method 5.1 Introductory comment The fundamental results of the Lyapunov (second, direct) method are expressed in terms of the existence of a function v with appropriate properties. They do not clarify how to construct the function v for a given system (5.1), dX = f(X): (5.1) dt They do not provide necessary and su cient conditions for 1) an exact direct generation of the function v, and for 2) an exact direct determination of a stability domain when the system (5.1) is prespecied. In order to avoid solving the problems raised from 1) and 2) we usually a priori accept a form of the v-function and then look for conditions on the system under which the so chosen v will satisfy the corresponding fundamental theorem of the Lyapunov method. Unfortunately, the available forms of v used eectively so far are few. Their use can be inadequate for a given system, which results in too conservative, restrictive conditions on the system. It is intuitively clear that the form of the function v depends on the form of the function f dening the system (5.1). The problems of exact direct (from f) construction of the function v and of exact direct determination of a stability domain have been until recently (71], 72], 74], 75]{86].) unsolved fundamental problems of the Lyapunov stability theory. This chapter aims to present the original results on these problems, which open a new direction for the use and development of the Lyapunov method. This chapter is based on 71], 72], 74]{86].

Denition 5.1 Weak smoothness property: (i) There is an open neighbourhood S of X = 0, S 2
(a) the system (5.1) has the unique solution X(t X0 ) through X0 at t = 0 over time interval I0, and (b) the motion X(t X0 ) is dened, continuous and dierentiable in (t X0 ) 2 I0 S . (ii) for every X0 2 (
Strong smoothness property:
(i) The system (5.1) has weak smoothness property. (ii) If the boundary @ S of S is non-empty then every motion of the system (5.1) passing through X0 2 @ S at t = 0 obeys inf kX(t X0 )k : t 2 I0 ] > 0 for every X0 2 @ S .
Specic smoothness property: There is an open neighbourhood S of X = 0 such that both (i) the function f is dierentiable on S : f(X) 2 C (1)(S ), and (ii) there is 2 <+ such that sup kfX (X)k : X 2 S ] < , where fX is the Jacobian of f .
5.2.2 Two-stage approach Distinction between problems
The two-stage approach means the following:
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
1) At rst a system Lyapunov function v is generated exactly, at one shot, directly via ordinary dierential equations (5.1) and (5.2), dv(X) = ;q(X) (5.2a) dt v(0) = 0 (5.2b) or equivalently via the partial dierential equation (5.3a) grad v(X)]T f(X) = ;q(X) (5.3a) so that it obeys the boundary condition (5.3b) i.e. (5.2b)], v(0) = 0: (5.3b) Such a function v need not explicitly provide informationabout the asymptotic stability domain D of X = 0. Properties of v are governed by properties of q for a given system (5.1), i.e. for a given f. 2) At the second stage we use the same function q in a specic way to be claried later on and resolve the equations (5.1) and (5.2), or (5.3), for a new form of v that will yield exact determination of the asymptotic stability domain D. This approach was developed for the systems (5.1) with the global weak smoothness property or with the weak smoothness property or with the strong smoothness property in 71], 72], 74]{76], 78], 79]. The properties and the form of a function solution v to (5.1), (5.2), or (5.3) are governed by properties of both f and q. Once the system (5.1) is given, the function f is xed. We meet a question how to choose a suitable function q. A selection of q should meet two goals: a) it should guarantee the existence of a solution v to the equations (5.1) and (5.2), or equivalently to (5.3), and b) it should give such properties to v that we can draw conclusions about asymptotic stability and, if aimed, the asymptotic stability domain. a) The problem of the existence of a function solution v to the equations (5.1), (5.2), or (5.3), is purely mathematical problem that is independent of stability properties of the system (5.1). This is illustrated as follows:
Example 5.1 Let a rst order system (5.1) be dened by
dx = x5=3 2 f;1 +1g: dt The zero state x = 0 is globally asymptotically stable for = ;1 and unstable for = +1. We shall make two dierent choices of the function q and look for a solution v to (5.2):

1) q(x) = x2=3. The equation (5.3a) now takes the following form: dv 5=3 2=3 dx x = ;x : The solution to this equation is v(x) = 1 ln x: It is not dened at x 0 nevertheless what is 2 f;1 +1g. Hence, the this case. Notice solution to (5.3a) does not obey (5.3b), v(0) = ; 1 6= 0,5in = 3 that both f and q are continuous everywhere, f(x) = x and q(x) = x2=3. Besides, f is dierentiable on <1 and q on (<1 ; O). Notice that q is not Lipschitzian at x = 0. 2) q(x) = jxj. The equation (5.2a) (and (5.3a)) becomes now dv x5=3 = ;jxj: dx The solution to this equation is found as v(x) = ; 3 jxj1=3: This solution obeys (5.2b) (and (5.3b)), v(0) = 0: Certainly, f is dierentiable on <1 (it is unchanged), and q is continuous on <1 and dierentiable on (<1 ; O). In this case q is obviously Lipschitzian at x = 0. This example illustrates the challenging complexity of the following purely mathematical problem: what are the (necessary and) su cient conditions for the function q to guarantee the existence of a solution function v to the equations (5.1), (5.2), or equivalently to (5.3). A study of this problem is out of the scope of this book. The preceding analysis emphasizes the importance of determining the family of all functions q for which the equations (5.3) have a solution.
Note 5.1 The function q need not possess a (semi-)deniteness property in order
to guarantee existence of a solution function v to the equations (5.3). To illustrate this we can accept q(x) = x in Example 5.1, which yields a solution v to (5.3) as v(x) = ; 3 x1=3 2 C(<1) \ C (1) (<1 ; O)]: © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
b) Let Q be the family of all functions q guaranteeing existence of a solution function v to the equations (5.1), (5.2), or (5.3). The goal of what follows is to determine a subfamily Q of Q , Q Q , and necessary and su cient properties of a solution function v to (5.3) for arbitrary q 2 Q in order for X = 0 to be an asymptotically stable state of the system (5.1), or for both X = 0 to be asymptotically stable and a set S to be its domain of asymptotic stability.

and 0 = (0) = 1 ; exp ;v(0)]: Hence, v(0) = 0:
(5.2b)
We have proved that the equations (5.4) become (5.3) when is replaced by 1 ; exp (;v) in them. Analogously, the equations (5.3) take the form of the equations (5.4) when v is replaced by ;ln (1 ; ) in them. Altogether, the equations (5.3) and (5.4) are equivalent. The equation (5.3a) is linear in v and q, which is simpler than the equation (5.4a) that is bilinear in and q. However, if for some X , v(X ) = +1 then (X ) = 1. The latter is more suitable for computation than the former.
Results Theorem 5.1 In order for the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) with the strong smoothness property to have the domain D of asymptotic stability and for a set N , N <, to be the domain of its asymptotic stability, N = D, it is both necessary and sucient that

S is also a neighbourhood of X = 0 in view of the strong smoothness property. Hence, Da \ S = 6 . Let us prove Da S . If @ S = then S =

Proof. Since the equations (5.4) and (5.25) are equivalent (Note 5.2) then Theorem 5.3 results directly from Theorem 5.1.
Dierently from Theorem 5.1, Theorem 5.2 permits the system (5.1) to possess the weak smoothness property only. For such systems the necessary and su cient conditions for determination of both their Lyapunov functions and asymptotic stability domains are discovered as follows. Theorem 5.4 For the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) possessing the weak smooth-
ness property to have the domain of asymptotic stability D and for a subset N of S , N S , to be equal to D: N = D, it is both necessary and sucient that

Proof. Necessity. Let the system (5.1) possess the weak smoothness property. Let X = 0 have the asymptotic stability domain D and let N S be equal to D: N = D. From this point on we have to repeat the proof of Theorem 5.1 to show that the conditions 1){3) of Theorem 5.4 hold. In such a way we complete the proof of the necessity part. Suciency. Su ciency of the conditions for N = D results from Theorem 5.1.
If we wish to avoid computational di culties due to v(x) ! +1 as X ! @ N , X 2 N , then we can use the following theorem that follows from Theorem 5.4 and Note 5.2.

Examples
The following examples are taken from 78]. Example 5.2 Let a rst (n = 1) order system (5.1) be described by dx = (x2 ; 1)x f(x) = (x2 ; 1)x 2 C (1)(<1 ): (5.28) dt It possesses the strong smoothness property on <1 . Now, from f(x) = (x2 ; 1)x = 0 it results that the system (5.24) has three equilibrium states: x1e = ;1 x2e = 0 x3e = +1: They suggest to select 2 ]0 +1 and S = ] ; 1 +1 because @ S = f;1 +1g = fx1e x3eg which shows that (ii) of the strong smoothness property holds on S = ] ; 1 +1. Hence, the system (5.28) has strong smoothness property also on S = ] ; 1 +1. Two dierent forms of the function p will be considered. a) By referring to the form of the function f (5.28) let p(x) = (1 ; x2)x2 : (5.29) The function p is dierentiable and positive denite on S = ] ; 1 +1. Now, for any 2 ]0 1, the function w is determined by (5.4) and (5.29) 8 (1 ; x2)x2 jxj p > < (5.30) w(x) = > jxj 2 x2 2 x2 : 1 ; jxj2 jxj2 = (1 ; 2)jxj jxj 2 1: It is also positive denite on S = ] ; 1 +1 and dierentiable on the set B = fx : x 2 ] ; 1 1 jxj 6= < 1g. Now, from (5.4), (5.28) and (5.30) it results that 812 > for jxj 2 0 ] < x v(x) = > 2 (1 ; 2 ) (1 ; )(1 + jxj) 1 (5.31) 2 : ln + for j x j 2 +1: 2 (1 + )(1 ; jxj) 2 © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
The function v determined by (5.31) is positive denite on S = ] ; 1 +1, dierentiable on the set B and v(x) ! +1 as x ! @ S , x 2 S . We conclude that all the conditions of Theorem 5.1 are satised for N = S = ] ; 1 +1. Hence, the set N is the asymptotic stability domain of x = 0 of the system (5.28) that is N = D = ] ; 1 +1. b) Let the function p be selected in another form, p(x) = x2: (5.32) Obviously, the function p is dierentiable and positive denite on S = ] ; 1 +1. The function w is now determined by arbitrarily chosen 2 ]0 1, (5.4b) and (5.32): 8 x2 for jxj 2 0 ] > < (5.33) w(x) = > jxj jxj 2 : jxj = jxj for jxj 2 +1: Now, (5.27a), (5.32) and (5.33) yield 81 1 > for jxj 2 0 ] > < 2 ln 1 ; x2 v(x) = > (5.34) 1 1 (1 + j x j )(1 ; ) > : 2 ln (1 ; jxj)(1 + ) + 2 ln 1 ; 2 for jxj 2 +1: The function v dened by (5.34) obeys evidently all the conditions of the Theorem 5.1 on N = S = ] ; 1 +1. Hence, the domain D of asymptotic stability of x = 0 of the system (5.1) equals S = ] ; 1 +1: D = ] ; 1 +1:
Example 5.3 Let
dx = ;(x2 ; 1)x: (5.35) dt In this case f(x) = ;(x2 ; 1)x 2 C (1)(<1 ). The strong smoothness property is valid on <1. Equilibrium states are again x1e = ;1, x2e = 0 and x3e = +1 so that S = ] ; 1 +1 is selected. The system (5.35) has strong smoothness property also on S . Let the function p be dened by (5.29). Repeating the procedure explained in Example 5.2 under a) we get v(x) = ; 12 x2 for jxj 2 0 2 ]0 1: Hence, the function v is not positive denite. Theorem 5.2 is not satised. Since its conditions are necessary for x = 0 to be asymptotically stable then the result is that x = 0 is not asymptotically stable. It does not have the asymptotic stability domain. This result and Theorem 3.35 (Section 3.7) show that x = 0 does not have the attraction domain, i.e. it is not attractive. In this example it is also unstable.

5.2.3 Approach via -uniquely bounded sets O
This section presents results and examples from 84].
Introductory comment
The two-stage approach requires the partial dierential equation gradv(X)]T f(X) = ;w(X) to be solved twice in order to determine the asymptotic stability domain D. It should be rst solved for w(X) = p(X) on B . Afterwards it should be k X k X solved for w(X) = p kX k . The same procedure holds if w(X) = p(X) 1 ; (X)] is rst accepted to nd from grad(X)]T f(X) = ;w(X)on B .Once it has been done we should solve the same equation for w(X) = kX k p kX X k 1 ; (X)]. In order to avoid such double solving of the partial dierential equation we need another approach.

Denitions of Da and D show that it has also the attraction domain Da , D Da . It is a neighbourhood of X = 0 due to denition of Da , and S is a neighbourhood of X = 0 in view of the smoothness property. Hence, Da \ S = 6 . Let us prove Da S . If @ S = then S =

Since N = D S , then the function u is the dierentiable positive denite generating function on N , too. The property of u 2 Q(S f) guarantees existence of > 0 such that there exists a solution function v to the equations (5.3) for q = u, which is well dened in < and continuous for every X 2 B , that is that jv(X)j < +1 for every X 2 B : (5.38) Let 2 ]0 +1 be such that U B : (5.39) The existence of such is assured by Lemma 4.11 (Section 4.3.3).

ing function u of the selected O-uniquely bounded set U is positive denite on S (Lemma 4.11, Section 4.3.3). Since the function v is positive denite solution to (5.3) on N , and N is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0, it follows that X = 0 is asymptotically stable (Theorem 4.9, Section 4.6.3).

By repeating the procedure explained in Example 5.6 we derive v(X) = ln cos 12 X : The function v is negative denite on N . Thus, it does not satisfy either Theorem 5.6 or Theorem 5.7, which shows that X = 0 of the system (5.59) does not have the asymptotic stability domain D <1, or equivalently that it is not asymptotically stable. In fact, it is unstable and not attractive.

O-uniquely bounded set U is u(X) = tan X. It is dierentiable on S . Now, (5.3a), 2
(5.60) and the denition of u yield dv = tan X: dX Its solution satisfying v(0) = 0 (5.3b) is found as v(X) = ; ln cos X: (5.61) h i This shows that u 2 Q ; 2 2 ;tan( ) . The function v (5.61) is dierentiable and positive denite on S and n o v(X) ! +1 as X ! @ S X 2 S @ S = ; 2 2 : i h All the conditions of Theorem 5.6 are satised for N = S . Hence, D = ; 2 2 is the domain of asymptotic stability of X = 0 of the system (5.60). In this example u(X) = f 2 (X). Motions of the system are dened by: 8 X for X = k > 0 < 0 2k ; 1 2k + 1 X(t X0) = > : arcsin (exp (;t) sin X0 ) X0 2 2 2 k = 0 1 : : : i h Using this it is easy to verify D = ; 2 2 . Example 5.9 The function f dened by f(X) = (X 2 ; 4)X is dierentiable on <1. Therefore, the system (5.62), dX = (X 2 ; 4)X (5.62) dt possesses the strong smoothness property on <1. The equilibrium states are: Xe1 = ;2, Xe2 = 0 and Xe3 = 2. They suggest S = ] ; 2 2. Hence, the system (5.62) has the strong smoothness property also on S . The form of the function f suggest U = fX : X 2 < g for 2 ]0 2 so that the generating function on S of the O-uniquely bounded set U is u(X) = X 2 . It is dierentiable and positive denite on S . The denition of the function u, (5.3a) and (5.62) result in X dv (5.63) dX = 4 ; X 2 : The solution of (5.3) obeying v(0) = 0 (5.3b) is derived as 2 1 4 ; X v(X) = ; 2 ln 4 : (5.64) Hence, u 2 Q(] ; 2 2 (X 2 ; 4)X).

the conditions of Theorem 5.6 are satised for N = S = ];2 2. The set N = ];2 2 is the domain of asymptotic stability of X = 0 of the system (5.63) (Theorem 5.6). Example 5.10 Let dX = ;X(1 + X 4 ): (5.65) dt Since the function f, f(X) = ;X(1 + X 4 ), is dierentiable on <1 then the system (5.65) has the strong smoothness property on S = <1 . It has the unique equilibrium state Xe = 0. Let U = fX : X 2 < 1g. The function u, u = X 2 , is the generating function on (S = <1 ) of the O-uniquely bounded set U . The solution of the equations (5.3) in this case is v(X) = 12 arctan X 2: (5.66) Hence, u 2 Q(<1 f). The function v obeys all the conditions of Theorem 5.6 on N = S = <1 . Hence, the asymptotic stability domain D of X = 0 of the system (5.65) is the whole state space, D = <1 which shows that X = 0 is globally asymptotically stable. In this connection it is emphasized that the system Lyapunov function v (5.66) is not radially unbounded because v(X) ! 4 as jX j ! +1: This result does not contradict the well-known Barbashin{Krasovskii criterion for the global asymptotic stability 6], which requires existence of radially unbounded globally positive denite function v with globally negative denite derivative v_ . However, it does not require that every function v proving the global asymptotic stability is radially unbounded. In order to show that Theorem 5.6 leads to a radially unbounded Lyapunov function under an appropriate choice of U , let U = fX : 4X 4 < 1g. The generating function of O-uniquely bounded set U is u1(X) = 4X 4 , which with the equations (5.3) implies ; v1 (X) = ln 1 + X 4 : Hence, u1 2 Q(<1 f). This function v1 obeys also all the conditions of Theorem 5.6 on N = S = <1. In addition it is radially unbounded, that is v1 (X) ! +1 as jX j ! +1: Radial unboundedness of v is not a necessary condition for global asymptotic stability in case v is constructed via Theorem 5.6 { Theorem 5.9.

5.2.4 General one-shot approach
What follows is deduced from 81] by accepting I = f0g, and from 83].
Introductory comments Like the O-uniquely bounded set approach, the general one-shot approach is aimed to provide the necessary and su cient conditions for a system Lyapunov function construction with a simultaneous exact determination of the asymptotic stability domain by solving v_ = ;p, or equivalently _ = ;(1 ; )p, only once. Unlike the former the latter does not require use of an O-uniquely bounded set that gives the following property to the generating function u: min u(X) : X 2 (S ; B )] > 0 for every 2 <+ for which S is neighbourhood of B . This property of u is used to prove that v(x) ! +1 (or equivalently (X) ! 1) as X ! @ N , X 2 N , in case @ N is nonempty. This property of u will be used in what follows, too.
Family Q(S f)
In the one-shot approach the family Q(S f) is determined dierently than in the preceding approaches.
Denition 5.4 (a) Q(S f) is the family of all the functions q :
1) q is continuous on S ,

2) for any > 0 such that S is a neighbourhood of B = fX : kX k < g, there is > 0, = ( q S ), obeying inf q(X) : X 2 (S ; B ] = , 3) there is 2 ]0 +1, = (q f), such that there exists a solution v :
Results Theorem 5.10 In order for the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) with the strong smoothness property to have the domain of asymptotic stability D and for a set N to be the domain of its asymptotic stability, N = D it is both necessary and sucient that
1) the set N is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0 and N S , 2) f(X) = 0 for X 2 N i X = 0, and 3) for arbitrary positive denite q 2 Q(S f), the equations (5.3) with (5.3a) determined along system motions have the unique solution function v with the following features: (i) v is positive denite on N , and (ii) if the boundary @ N of N is non-empty then v(X) ! +1 as X ! @ N , X 2 N, or 4) for arbitrary positive denite q 2 Q1(S f), the equations (5.3) with (5.3a) determined along system motions have the unique solution function v with the following features: (i) v is positive denite and dierentiable on N , and (ii) if the boundary @ N of N is non-empty then v(X) ! +1 as X ! @ N , X 2 N. rrr

Now, (5.76), (5.77) and (5.80) complete the proof of the existence of a solution function v to (5.2) obeying (5.81) for every q 2 Q(S f). Let now q 2 Q(1)(S f) be arbitrarily chosen. Let vX = (@v=@XR1: : :@v=@X2 )T and qX be analogously dened. ^ X^ = X( X0 ). Since From (5.78) it follows that v(X) = 0 qX( X)]d + v(X), X^ 2 B then q 2 Q(1)(S f) implies v(X) 2 C (1) (B ) which together with b) of the weak smoothness property implies vX( X0 )] 2 C (1)(N ) so that there is (X) 2 ]0 +1, 8X 2 N , such that kvX X( X0 )]k < (X), 8X 2 N . Now, 1) of Denition 5.4, b) of the weak smoothness property and R compactness of 0 ] imply existence of (X) 2 ]0 +1, 8X 2 N , such that k 0 qX X( X0 )]dk < (X), 8X 2 N . Altogether, kvX (X)k < (X) + (X) < +1, 8X 2 N . Hence, v(X) 2 C (1)(N ): (5.83) Now, (5.76), (5.77) and (5.80) prove the existence of a solution function v to (5.3) satisfying (5.82) for every q 2 Q(1)(S f). Let v1 and v2 be two solutions to (5.3).

Since Da = D then N = D, i.e. the set N is the domain of the asymptotic stability of X = 0 of the system (5.1). Equivalency of (5.3) and (5.4), and the preceding theorem yield

Problem solution
In this framework the system will be assumed to possess the specic smoothness property (Denition 5.1). The complete solution to the problem reads as follows:
Theorem 5.14 Let the system (5.1) possess the specic smoothness property and
$ > 0 obey B S . In order for system solutions to obey (5.98) for some numbers 2 <+ , 1, 2 <+ and given by (5.99) it is necessary and sucient that for arbitrarily chosen positive denite dierentiable function p obeying (5.100), 1 kX kk p(X) 2kX kk 8X 2 B © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC

Let us choose arbitrary dierentiable positive denite function p on B obeying (5.100) for some positive numbers i, i = 1 2, and some natural number k. Let a function v be determined by (5.101).

The specic smoothness property (Denition 5.1) guarantees the existence and uniqueness of motions of the system (5.1) on <+ for every X0 2 B . Besides, it ensures validity of (5.104) (inequality (4.11) by Krasovskii 116]), kX(t X0 )k kX0 k exp (;n2 t) 8(t X0) 2 <+ B : (5.104) Let 1 = (k n2 );1 1 2 <+ and 2 = k (k);1 2 2 <+ .

Besides, (5.103) and (5.105) for X0 = X prove that v is dened on B .

(5.101a) and (5.103) prove continuity and continuous dierentiability of the function v on B (for all the details see the proof of Theorem 11.1 by Krasovskii 116]). Furthermore, uniqueness of the motions X of the system (5.1), and (5.103) prove the uniqueness of the solution function v to (5.101), which completes the proof of the necessity part. Suciency. Let all the conditions of the theorem to be proved hold. From (5.100), (5.101a) and (5.102) we derive: v_ X(t X0 )] ;12;1 vX(t X0 )] 8t X(t X0 )] 2 <+ B : A solution to this inequality satises the following: vX(t X0 )] v(X0 ) exp (;1 2;1 t) 8t X(t X0)] 2 <+ B : Combining this with (5.102) we derive (5.106a) kX(t X0)k kX0 k exp (;t) 8(t X0 ) 2 <+ B and = (1;1 2)1=k 2 1 +1 = 1 (k2);1 2 <+ : (5.106b) Let now be chosen as 0 < ;1$ (5.106c) so that kX0 k < implies kX0 k < $ that together with (5.106a) proves (5.98), and (5.106c) proves (5.99).

For such a function p, the solution v to (5.101) is v(X) = kX k2 : Hence, the function v obeys Theorem 5.14 for 1 = 2 = 1 so that (5.98) is satised for = 1 = 4(1 +12$2) and for 2 ]0 $]. Let the second choice of p be p(X) = 2kX k2 (1 + 2kX k2 )2 : so that (5.100) holds for k = 2 1 = 2 2 = 2(1 + 2$2)2 : The solution v to (5.101) is found as v(X) = kX k2 (1 + kX k2 ): It obeys (5.102) for 1 = 1 2 = 1 + $2: In this case (5.98) is valid for

which yields k = 1 = 2 = 2 then the solution v to (5.101) is 2 v(X) = 1 +kX2kkX k2 :
It satises (5.102) for 1 = 1 +12$2 2 = 1 so that (5.98) holds for = (1 + 2$2) 2 1 +1 = 1 = 1 +$2$2 : This example shows dependence of v, , and on the choice of the function p.

Strong smoothness property:
(i) The system (5.1) has the weak smoothness property. (ii) If the boundary @ S of S is non-empty then every motion of the system (5.1) passing through X0 2 @ S at t = 0 obeys inf kX(t X0 )k : t 2 I0 ] > 0 for every X0 2 @ S .
Throughout this section (5.3) a smoothness property will be used in the sense of Denition 5.5 (rather than in the sense of Denition 5.1).

5.3.2 Approach via -uniquely bounded sets O
This section exposes results and examples from 80]. In what follows we shall make use of the following denition.
Denition 5.6 A function u :
D v(X) = ;u(X) +
v(0) = 0
(5.107a) (5.107b)
have a solution v that is well dened in < and continuous for every X 2 B for some 2 ]0 +1, = (u f).
Theorem 5.15 In order for the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) with the strong smoothness property to have the domain of asymptotic stability D and for a set N , N
1) the set N is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0 and N S , 2) f(X) = 0 for X 2 N i X = 0, and either 3) for arbitrarily selected O-uniquely bounded set U , U S , with the generating function u on S obeying u 2 E (S f), the equations (5.107) have the unique solution function v on N with the following properties: (i) v is positive denite on N , and (ii) if the boundary @ N of N is non-empty then v(X) ! +1 as X ! @ N , X 2 N, or 4) for arbitrarily selected O-uniquely bounded set U , U S , with the generating function u on S obeying u 2 E (S f), the equations (5.108) with (5.108a) taken along system motions,
D (X) = ;u(X) 1 ; (X)] +
(0) = 0
(5.108a) (5.108b)
have the unique solution function on N with the following properties:

(i) is positive denite on N , and (ii) if the boundary @ N of N is non-empty then (X) ! 1 as X ! @ N , X 2 N. rrr
Proof. 1){3) of the statement are proved in the same way as 1){3) of Theorem 5.6. Equivalency of (5.107) and (5.108) then proves 4).
The conditions slightly change if the system (5.1) possesses the weak smoothness property rather than the strong smoothness property.
Theorem 5.16 For the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) possessing the weak smoothness property to have the domain of asymptotic stability D and for a subset N of S , N S , to be equal to D: N = D, it is both necessary and sucient that 1) the set N is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0, 2) f(X) = 0 for X 2 N i X = 0, and either 3) for arbitrarily selected O-uniquely bounded set U , U S , with the generating function u on
Proof. This theorem is proved in the same way as Theorem 5.8 and Theorem 5.9. Example 5.17 Let n = 1, dx = ;x + h(x) h(x) = dt

( xjxj for jxj 2 0 1]
xpx for jxj 2 1 +1:
The system possesses the strong smoothness property because f(x) = ;x + h(x) is Lipschitzian on <1. The equilibrium states are xe1 = ;1, xe2 = 0 and xe3 = +1. They suggest S = ] ; 1 +1 and U = fx : jxj < g = ] ; + for 2 ]0 1. The generating function u on N , u(x) = jxj, of the O-uniquely bounded set U and (5.2) yield D+ v(x) = ;jxj x 2 S : Its solution v is v(x) = ; ln (1 ; jxj) x 2 S : The function v(x) and the set N = S = ] ; 1 +1 obey all the requirements of Theorem 5.15, that is that 1) N = ] ; 1 +1 is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0 and N = S , 2) f(x) = ;x + h(x) = 0 for x 2 N i x = 0, 3) (i) v(x) = 0 for x 2 N i x = 0, v(x) 2 C(N ), v(x) > 0 for every (x 6= 0) 2 N , which prove positive deniteness of v on N , (ii) v(x) ! +1 as x ! @ N = f;1 +1g, x 2 N . Hence, N = ] ; 1 +1 is the domain D of asymptotic stability of x = 0, D = ] ; 1 +1: Notice that jf(x)j = jxj(1 ; jxj), x 2 N , is not a generating function on N of any O-uniquely bounded set because it is not radially increasing on N .
Example 5.18 Let the function h be dened as in Example 5.17 and
dx = x ; h(x): dt It is clear that the system possesses the strong smoothness property on <1 and has the equilibrium states xe1 = ;1, xe2 = 0 and xe3 = +1 (see Example 5.17). Let again U = fx : jxj < g = ] ; + for 2 ]0 +1 so that u(x) = jxj. From (5.107a) and u(x) = jxj we get D+ v(x) = ;jxj x 2 N : Integrating this equation along motions of the system we derive v(x) = ln (1 ; jxj) x 2 N which is negative denite on N and, thus, does not satisfy the necessary and sufcient conditions for asymptotic stability of x = 0 of the system. Hence, x = 0 of the system is not asymptotically stable and does not have the asymptotic stability domain.

5.3.3 General one-shot approach
In what follows we shall extend the general one-shot approach to systems with continuous (generalised) rather than with dierentiable motions 77], 82]. In this framework we shall use the family E (S f) dened as follows: Denition 5.7 E (S f) is the family of all the functions e, e :
1) e is continuous on S : e(X) 2 C(S ), 2) for any > 0 for which the set S is neighbourhood of B there is > 0, = ( e S ), which obeys
inf e(X) : X 2 (S ; B )] = 3) there is 2 <+ , = (e f), such that there exists a solution v to the equations (5.109) with (5.109a) taken along motions of the system (5.1),
D v(X) = ;e(X) +
v(0) = 0
(5.109a) (5.109b)
which is dened in < and continuous on B , or equivalently, there exists a solution to the equations (5.110), with (5.110a) taken along motions of the system (5.1),
D (X) = ;e(X) 1 ; (X)] +
(0) = 0
(5.110a) (5.110b)
which is dened in < and continuous on B .
Theorem 5.17 In order for the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) with the strong smoothness property to have the domain of asymptotic stability D and for a set N , N
1) the set N is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0 and N S , 2) f(X) = 0 for X 2 N i X = 0, and 3) for arbitrarily selected positive denite function e obeying e 2 E (S f), the equations (5.109) equivalently (5.110)] have the unique solution function v equivalently ] on N with the following properties: (i) v equivalently ] is positive denite on N , and (ii) if the boundary @ N of N is non-empty then v(X) ! +1 equivalently (X) ! 1], respectively, as X ! @ N , X 2 N . rrr

Proof. This theorem is proved in the same way 77], 82] as Theorem 5.10. Theorem 5.18 For the state X = 0 of the system (5.1) with the weak smoothness property to have the domain of asymptotic stability D and for a subset N of S , N S , to be equal to D: N = D, it is both necessary and sucient that 1) the set N is an open connected neighbourhood of X = 0, 2) f(X) = 0 for X 2 N i X = 0, and 3) for arbitrarily selected function e obeying e 2 E (S f) the equations (5.109) equivalently (5.110)] have the unique solution function v equivalently ] on N with the following properties: (i) v equivalently ] is positive denite on N , and (ii) if the boundary @ N of N is non-empty then v(X) ! +1 equivalently (X) ! 1], respectively, as X ! @ N , X 2 N . rrr

f = (f1 f2 )T : The system has a unique (generalised) motion X(t X0 ) for every X0 2 <2 , which is continuous in t 2 <+ . The set Se of the equilibrium states is found as Se = X : X 2 <2 (X = 0) or (jx1j = 10 and x2 2 <) or (x1 2 < and jx2j = 6)g : The set Se suggest the set S as
S = X : X 2 <2 jx1j < 10 and jx2j < 6 : Since the set Se is positive invariant and @ S Se then it is easy to verify that the system possesses the strong smoothness property with S determined above. Let e(X) = jx1j + jx2j which yields the solution to (5.109) as x2j : v(X) = (10 ;3jxjx1j j+)(62j; jx2j) 1 © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
The function v is well dened on B for 2 ]0 5:99. Since inf e(X) : X 2 (S ; B )] = > 0 for any 2 ]0 5:99 then we conclude that the positive denite function e obeys e 2 E (S f). The function v satises all the conditions of Theorem 5.17 on S . Since X = 0 is a unique equilibrium state of the system in S , then we may conclude that the set S is the domain D of asymptotic stability of X = 0, N = S = D = fX : X 2 <2 jx1j < 10 and jx2j < 6g:
Example 5.20 Let the system (5.1) take the following specic form: dx1 = ;x (1 + x2) cos2 jx j = f (X) 1 1 1 2 dt dx2 = ;x (1 + x2)(1 + jx j) = f (X) 2 1 2 2 dt f = (f1 f2 )T : The system possesses the weak smoothness property on <2 : S = <2 . Let e(X) = jx1j(1 + x22) + jx2j(1 + jx1j): It satises 1) and 2) of Denition 5.7 on <2 . Furthermore, the solution function v to (5.109) is obtained in the form of v(X) = tan jx1j + arctan jx2j which completes the proof of e 2 E (<2 f). The function v is positive denite on N , n o N = X : X 2 <2 jx1j < 2 and x2 2 < : The functions e and v, and the set N full all the conditions of Theorem 5.18. Hence, X = 0 of the system has the domain D of asymptotic stability given by D = N , that is n o D = X : X 2 <2 jx1j < 2 and x2 2 < :
Example 5.21 Let
dx1 = ;x (1 + x2 )(2 + sin x ) = f (X) 1 2 1 1 dt dx2 = ;x3 exp jx j (4 + cos x ) = f (X) 2 1 2 2 dt f = (f1 f2 )T :

This system has the weak smoothness property on <2 . The function e, e(X) = jx1j(2 + sin x2 ) + jx2j3(4 + cos x1 ) obeys e 2 E (<2 f) because it yields the solution v to (5.109) in the following form: v(X) = arctan jx1j + 1 ; exp (;jx2j): The functions v and e, and the set N = <2 satisfy all the conditions of Theorem 5.18. Therefore, X = 0 of the system has the domain of asymptotic stability, D = <2 : This means that x = 0 is globally asymptotically stable, which is proved by using non-radially unbounded function v. This is possible because v is solution to (5.109) for e 2 E (<2 f) and X = 0 is the unique equilibrium state in <2 . The obtained result does not contradict the Barbashin{Krasovskii theorem 6] on asymptotic stability in the whole, which requires only the existence of a globally positive denite radially unbounded function with globally negative denite derivative along system motions. In order to show that such a function v can be generated by using Theorem 5.18 and (5.109) let the function e have the form either under (i) or (ii), (i) e(X) = 2x21(1 + x21)(2 + sin x2 ) + 2x42 exp jx2j (4 + cos x1 ), which yields the solution v to (5.109) as v(X) = kX k2 (ii) e(X) = jx1j(1 + x21)(2 + sin x2 ) + jx2j3 exp jx2j (4 + cos x1 ), which leads via (5.109) to v(X) = jx1j + jx2j: In both cases the function v is globally positive denite and radially unbounded.
5.4 Conclusion The new methodology based on the Lyapunov (direct) method 127] presented in this chapter for nonlinear systems described by (5.1) and with a corresponding smoothness property, is characterized by the following in the case where X = 0 is unique equilibrium state in its neighbourhood N : 1. A function q can be arbitrarily chosen from an appropriate functional family so that q is positive denite. 2. Either properties of a solution v to v_ = ;q with v(0) = 0, or properties of a solution to _ = ;q(1 ; ) with (0) = 0 are to be tested. If and only if, for a chosen positive denite q from the functional family determined in the chapter for dierent cases, the solution v (or ) is positive denite then X = 0 is asymptotically stable. Hence, if v (or ) is not positive denite then X = 0 is not asymptotically stable. The procedure ends in either case after testing properties of v (or ) only once.

3. If we wish to verify whether an open connected neighbourhood N of X = 0 is the domain of asymptotic stability of X = 0 then, in addition to positive deniteness of v (or ) on N , it is both necessary and su cient that v(X) ! 1 or (X) ! 1] as X ! @ N , X 2 N . In this way we achieve both a) an exact construction of a system Lyapunov function, and b) an exact determination of the asymptotic stability domain of X = 0. The same holds in the case where we test asymptotic stability of a set 81]. The methodology presented herein is inverse to Lyapunov's methodology for nonlinear systems 127] that starts with a choice of v (or ) and verication of properties of v_ (or _ ). If v_ (or ) _ does not possess the requested properties, the v (or ) should be reselected without any guideline how to reselect them. Therefore, Lyapunov's original methodology allows the procedure to be endless. It should be noticed that Lyapunov's original methodology for nonlinear systems is inverse to his own methodology for time-invariant linear systems 127]. However, the methodology presented in this chapter for nonlinear systems is the same as Lyapunov's methodology for time-invariant linear systems. This ensures consistency of the methodology based on the Lyapunov method and makes it complete. It should be also noticed that the methodology presented herein separates the stability problem reduced to the problem of testing the properties of v (or ) from the purely mathematical problems of the existence of the solution v to v_ = ;q with v(0) = 0 or to _ = ;q(1 ; ) with (0) = 0] and of solving these equations. These mathematicalproblems are not considered in this chapter but in the preceding chapter (Section 4.9.4) and deserve further mathematical research.

Chapter 6
Foundations of practical stability domains 6.1 Introductory comment A practical stability analysis is based on the Lyapunov method in a broad sense. Qualitative properties of the system (generalised) motions are studied via behaviour of a continuous function v along the motions by using its total time derivative rather than to determine the motions themselves. This is the basis of the Lyapunov method in a broad sense. Its closer sense requires the function v to be positive denite, and generally its total time derivative to possess a (semi-)deniteness property. Such demands are not imposed on the function v in the framework of practical stability. We use instead the extremal (minimal or maximal) values of the function v on appropriate sets or on their boundaries. Then, by using the total time derivative of v, we are able to compare instantaneous values of v along motions with its extremal values of importance over an accepted (nite or innite) time interval. What follows is further development of the methodology established by Weiss and Infante 208], Michel 144]{146] and Gruji&c 60]{62], and opening of new practical stability study compared with that of 11], 29], 43], 44], 52], 60]{63], 91], 93], 99], 105], 109]{111], 121], 133], 144]{146], 150], 152], 156], 179], 194], 205], 207]{209]. The novelty is related to conditions for a set to be an estimate of the domain of a requested practical stability property.

If ci 0 then (6.12) yield jxi (t X0 i)j jxi (t1 X0 i)j 8(t X0 i) 2 t1 S I ci 0: (6.13a) Hence, the assumed t1 does not exist. If ci 0 then (t ; ti)ci < so that from (6.12) follows: (6.13b) jxi (t X0 i)j jxi (t1 X0 i)j + ci = ( i bi + ci) ci 0 where the equality is due to jX(t1 X0 i)j 2 @ S that yields jxi (t X0 i)j = i bi. If t1 as dened above does not exist then X0 2 S , X(t X0 i) 2 Ct(< Xa I ), connectedness and compactness of S imply X(t X0 i) 2 S , 8t 2 < . In that case X(t X0 i) 2 XA , 8t 2 < , due to S XA. Hence, we continue considering (6.13b). Since ( ibi + ci) bi ,8i = 1 2 : : : n, due to the condition ci (1 ; i )bi and 2 <+ , then (6.13b) yields jxi (t X0 i)j c 0: i bi This together with connectedness and compactness of XA and X(t X0 i) 2 Ct(< Xa I ), and (6.14) ensure that X(t X0 I ) 2 XA also in the case when there exist t1 and as dened above. Altogether, X(t X0 i) 2 XA 8(t X0 i) 2 < S I which proves the theorem in view of Denition 6.1(a). It is interesting to note that the set XA is O-uniquely bounded in all three cases with the generating function u( ) determined by a) u(X) = bT jX j in case XA is dened by (6.2), b) u(X) = X T P X in case XA is dened by (6.7), c) u(X) = max jxb ij : i = 1 2 : : : n in case XA is dened by (6.9). i We terminate this section with a result corresponding to the general case of a uniquely bounded set XA with a generating function u( ) (Denition 4.13, section 4.3.2): 8 9 > > < 8X 2 XA > > < = u(X) = 8X 2 @ XA (6.14) > > : > 8X 2 (

The denitions (6.14) and (6.15) of XA and S yield v( ) = u( ) (in Theorem 6.2): @ = and v_ vM S = vmA MAS = u_ MAS : These equations show that the condition tu_ MAS < (1 ; ) becomes @ ; t_v vM S < vmA MAS :
Hence, all the conditions of Theorem 6.2 are satised, which proves Theorem 6.6. Notice that the condition of the theorem is satised for = 1, i.e. for S = XA, as soon as u_ MAS 0.

6.5 Conclusion The practical stability criteria permit an aggregation function v to be non-denite with non-semidenite Dini derivative. The function v need not be continuous everywhere. The criteria are expressed in a very simple form in terms of extremal values of v and D+ v on compact sets. They are suitable for direct calculations. The criteria show qualitative and quantitative trade-o among the sets XA, XF , E( ) , the settling and nal time and the form of aggregation function v used. The choice is straightforward in the case of the sets being uniquely bounded, where their generating functions should be taken for the function v.

7.1.2 Comparison systems
The notion of comparison system originates in the theory of dierential (and integral) inequalities, which inequalities directly follow from the use of Lyapunov's methods. Since the beginning of the century, many works have been devoted to related topics (see for example description and references in 88], Chapter 2). The \comparison concept" has also been dened as a formal property of qualitative concepts 92] that we shall use in the sequel, under the following reduced expression 162]:

P (C Z A) ) P(S X B):
Example 7.1 The rst Lyapunov method can be stated in term of comparison systems, since the asymptotic stability of Z = 0 for dZ = AZ () dt implies the asymptotic stability of X = 0 for 8 dX > < dt = AX + b(X) () > : lim bT (X)b(X) = 0: X !0 X T X We can say that (() f0g) is a comparison system of (() f0g) with regard to the asymptotic stability property and to the instability property.

7.1.3 Dierential inequalities, overvaluing systems
Basic results concerning dierential inequalities were provided by Wa,zewski 206], who gave the necessary and su cient hypothesis ensuring that the solution of a system described by: dX = F (t X) dt with initial condition X0 at t0 with function F (t X) verifying inequality F (t X) G(t X) is overvalued by the solution of the so called \overvaluing system": dZ = G(t Z) dt with initial condition Z0 X0 at t0 , or in other words, conditions on function G(t Z) that guarantee: Z(t t0 Z0 ) X(t t0 X0 ): These conditions and other linked results are the topic of this section.

Theorem 7.2 Consider the disturbed system (7.1), and let V (X) :
a continuous function with right-hand gradient, components of which are positive denite functions, such that along the solutions of (7.1) the following holds:

8 dX > > < dt = g(X d) > > : dV = h(V (X)) dt

which means that (7.16) comes down to
Dt V (X) = f(X d) h(V (X)) 8d 2 Sd 8X 2
Corollary 7.1 If system (7.1) and function V satisfy the hypothesis of Theorem 7.1, then system (7.19) is Sd -decoupled overvaluing system of (7.18) i h(V ) is quasiincreasing. In this case, any motion Z(t t0 Z0) of

This corollary obviously follows from Theorem 7.2 and Denition 7.4. It gives a way to have a suitable stability study of system (7.1) by comparing it with a simpler system (7.20): simpler, because (7.20) is k-order (k n) and is not disturbed. However, this result does not concern general (S T Sd )-local overvaluing systems, that are to be worked out in the next sections, leading to stability domains estimations. Before this, we have to study some particular quasi-increasing functions.

Denition and properties
Example 7.4 shows that any function dened by f(X) = MX + q where M is a constant matrix with nonnegative o-diagonal elements, and a constant vector, is quasi-increasing. Such matrices M = (mij )ij =1:::n, mij 0, 8i 6= j, present strong and useful properties that are recalled here, and that shall be useful in the following sections.
Denition 7.6 48] A constant real square matrix A is called: i) a Z -matrix if and only if all its o-diagonal elements are non-positive, which is also denoted A 2 Z and a Z -matrix if and only if o-diagonal elements are negative, this is A 2 Z . ii) a ;Z -matrix i ;A 2 Z, which is also denoted A 2 ;Z, and a ;Z -matrix if and only if ;A 2 Z , A 2 ;Z . iii) a P -matrix if and only if all its leading principal minors are positive, which is also denoted A 2 P,

A characteristic of ;M-matrices is to have nonnegative o-diagonal elements, and a negative diagonal.
Theorem 7.3 48] Let M be a constant n n matrix with non-negative elements (M 2 ;Z). Then the proposition \M is a ;M matrix" is equivalent to any of the following propositions:
1) Any eigenvalue of M has a negative real part. 2) Any real eigenvalue of M is negative. 3) M veries the Koteliansky conditions (that is, ;M 2 P):

Further properties of ;M matrices 1) If M 2 ;M, then there exists a negative real eigenvalue (M) of M, called the importance value of M, such that the real part of any eigenvalue of M is at most (M). 2) If M 2 ;M, there exists a nonnegative eigenvector u(M) 0 associated to

Invariance of B a : Let a = ( : : :n)T > q, b = ;M a = ( : : :n )T q, and X(t) = (x : : :xn )T 2 @ B a . Then there is an index i such that at time t, jxij = i and jxj j j for j =6 i. Since M 2 ;Z, we have 1

mij j + qi = i + qi 0
and jxij cannot increase at time t. Then, any trajectory of (7.25) crossing @ Ba enters B a or lies on @ B a . This proves the positive invariance of B a .
Invariance of B +a : Suppose that at time t, X(t) 2 @B +a , and X(t) 62 @Ba . this means that there is an index i such that at time t, xi (t) = 0, and 0 xj (t) j . Then
dxi(t) = X m x + q 0 ij j i dt j 6=i
and X(t) cannot go out of B +a . This, together with positive invariance of B a , proves the positive invariance of B+a . Proof of (iii): This can be found in 195], in the case q = 0, and is easy to generalise for q 0 by setting Y = X + M ;1 q, Y (t Y0 ) = exp (Mt) Y0 , and K comes down to
fa 2 0g. Proof of (iv):

7.2 Vector norm-based comparison systems 7.2.1 De nition and aim of vector norms
The concept of vector norm (V.N.) was introduced by Robert (1964) in order to solve numerical analysis problems linked with linear recurrences. It was applied, together
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
with the concept of vector Lyapunov's function (initiated by Bellman (1962) and Matrosov (1962)) to an aggregation of large-scale systems and to their stability analysis, by Borne, Gentina, Laurent, Gruji&c, Richard (see for example 57], 87], 173]) with further applications to constrained control 169], practical stability 164], and dierential-dierence equations 34], 35], 21]. Denition 7.7 Let E =

where Pi is a projection operator from E into Ei . Let pi be a scalar norm (i = 1 2 : : : k) dened on the subspace Ei , and p be a vector norm (V.N.) of dimension k and with the i-th component:
pi(X) = pi(Xi ) p(X) :
E = E E E : : : Ek : 1

The aim of this section is to give a general way of computing overvaluing systems that are based on an R.V.N. p(X), in other words, of computing a function h in such a way that system (7.35):
8 > > < dX dt = g(X d) > > : dp = h(X p) dt
© 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC
(7.35a) (7.35b)
is a local overvaluing system of
8 > > < dX dt = g(X d) > > : Dt p(X) = DX p]T h(X d): +
+
(7.36a) (7.36b)
Then (7.35b) will be used as a comparison system of (7.35a), since its solution veries Z(t) p(X(t)), provided that initial conditions are compatible: Z(t0 ) = p(X(t0 )). However, the stability study of (7.35b) has to be carried out without solving (7.35a), and this will motivate the use of decoupled overvaluing systems (see Denition 7.5) that are such that h depends only on Z:
8 > > < dX dt = g(X d), > > : dZ dt = h(Z).
(7.37a) (7.37b)
This could have been obtained by means of the general vector Lyapunov's functions instead of V.N., however the main advantage of V.N. is to give direct and systematic computations.
7.2.2 A rst statement

Suppose that the system

(7.40a) (7.40b)
has a unique continuous solution for d 2 Sd . Then a sucient condition for system (7.40) to be a (Xc Zc Sd)-local overvaluing system of

8 > dX > < dt = g(X d) > > : Dt p(X) = Dx p]T g(X d) +
(7.41a) (7.41b)

is that Zc is Xc -positively invariant for (7.40b), which means
Z0 = p(X0 ) 2 Zc ) Z(t) 2 Zc 8t t0 8X 2 Xc:
(7.42)
b) If system (7.40) is decoupled, that is, if (7.39) can be written as:
Dt p(X) h(p(X)) 8X 2 Xc
(7.43)
+
with h a locally quasi-increasing function on Zc , then the above condition is that Zc is positively invariant for (7.44):
dZ = h(Z): dt
(7.44)

Z0 = p(X0 ): (7.46) i) Solution X(t t0 X0 d) exists and is continuous by hypothesis. ii) Since (7.39) holds with h(X Z) locally quasi increasing w.r.t. Z, as long as X remains in Xc and Z in Zc , similarly to Theorem 7.2 we have Z0 = p(X0 ) ) Z(t t0 X0 Z0 d) p(X(t t0 X0 d)) (7.47) © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC

(7.49)
At time t = t0 , X0 is in Xc, therefore (7.47) holds until time t1 when p(X(t1 )) = c. However, such a time t1 does not exist because of (7.49). So, (7.47) remains true for any t t0. This proves 0 p(X(t t0 X0 d)) Z(t t0 X0 p(X0) d)
(7.50)
and Sd -positive invariance of Xc for system (7.1). b) The decoupled case appears as a particular case of (a).
7.2.3 Computation of overvaluing systems General formula Let the system (7.1) be decomposed into dX = A(X d)X + b(X d) dt A(X d) and v(X d) bounded for bounded X, and any d 2 Sd :

This decomposition is obviously non-unique: as we shall see afterwards, it is preferable to work it out in such a way that dX = A(X d)X dt

Simpler formula with the usual Holder's norms and associated matrix measures
Though formulas (7.53), based on the gradient of the vector norm, are general ones, an equivalent calculation of overvaluing pairs (M q) can be proposed, which is related to the notions of norm and measure of matrices 39]. The norm of a rectangular matrix A 2 C nm , associated with two norms k k of vectors in C n and C m , is classically dened as: k kAk = supm kkAX (7.58) X k 2 <+ : X 2< The associated measure of a square matrix is: k ; 1 2 <: (A) = lim+ kI + "A (7.59) " "!0 For any matrices A and B of same dimension n n, we have: Re i (A) (A) ;(A) Im i (A) (;jA) (A + B) (A) + (B) (7.60) (A) kAk (A) = (A) 8 0: Considering a matrix A = (aij ) 2 C nn, and a vector q = (ui ) 2 C n , the followingX sums up the formulas that concern Holder's norms 1, 2 and 1. The notation here obviously means the sum for i = 1 to i = n, max means the max i i for i = 1 to n, and (A) are the eigenvalues of A.

Assumption 7.1 When all the scalar components pi(X) of p(X) are of the same Holder's type 1, 2 or 1, the application of formula (7.53) leads to the following formulation of the overvaluing pair (M(X) q(X)): 9 ii(X) = sup (Aii (X d)) > >

(7.72a) (7.72b)
to be (Xc Zc Sd )-local overvaluing system of(7.70) is that M is asymptotically stable and c belongs to the simplicial cone K dened by (7.29) this, i.e.: 1) M veries the Koteliansky conditions (Theorem 7.3, proposition 3) 2) ;M c q (7.73) c) Dening Ze = ;M ;1 q, ((7:72b) Zc Ze) is a comparison system of ((7:1) Xc XZe ) with regard to the asymptotic stability property with the estimate of asymptotic stability domain, i.e.: \Ze is asymptotically stable for (7.72b), with Zc an estimate of its asymptotic stability domain
Proof.
a) M(X) and q(X) are continuous w.r.t. time, whenever X is the continuous solution of (7.1) (7.51). Then (7.69b) admits a unique continuous solution. Properties 3 (7.57) and 7 (7.58) ensure that h(X Z) fulls hypothesis of Lemma 7.1 (quasi-increasingness and overvaluation (7.39)) Therefore, Lemma 7.1 (a) proves Lemma 7.2 (a). b) Solutions of (7.72b) are continuous, and Theorem 7.4 (ii) proves that Zc is positively invariant with respect to (7.72b). The function MZ + q is quasiincreasing, and thus Lemma 7.1 (b) proves Lemma 7.2 (b). c) If Ze is asymptotically stable, Ze is invariant, and any motion (7.1) initialised in Xc remains in Xc and tends to XZe as t tends to innity. © 2004 by Chapman & Hall/CRC

7.3 Vector norms and Lyapunov stability criteria The following is a direct elaboration of Lemma 7.2, which constitutes a basic result for vector-norms-based Lyapunov stability criteria.
7.3.1 Stability of equilibrium points
In the rst part, it is assumed that for any disturbance d in Sd , X = 0 is a stationary point of (7.1). Then: g(0 d) = 0 8d 2 Sd :
(7.79)
Then, system (7.1) can be described under the form: dX = A(X d)X (7.80) dt with A(X d) bounded for any d 2 Sd and any X in some neighbourhood S of X = 0. Notice that X = 0 is also an equilibrium point of (7.1) and (7.80).

For example, if all pi (i = 1 : : :k) are of the same type k k! (! = 1 2 or 1), we have: = 1 for pi = k k p = n for pi = k k p = n for pi = k k1 : 2

Lemma 7.2 (b and c) ensures that if one denes system dZ = MZ (7.84) dt then ((7:84) Zc f0g) is a comparison system of ((7:80) Xc f0g) with regard to the asymptotic stability property with the estimate of domains. Since Z = 0 is asymptotically stable for (7.84) with Zc an estimate of its asymptotic stability domain, then point (ii) holds.

7.3.2 Stability of sets
In this part, X = 0 may not be an equilibrium point, and if it is, it is not necessarily a stable one. However, the following theorem provides the conditions for the existence and estimation of stable sets and associated domains. We consider the system described by (7.1), which can be decomposed into (7.51) for computation of overvaluing pairs (7.53), (7.54) or (7.65). For example, decomposition (7.51) can correspond to the natural decomposition (7.2) in which vector b( ) represents the eect of the disturbance d 2 Sd : dX = f(X) + d(X) = A(X)X + d(X): (7.92) dt In this case, if there is no disturbance, X = 0 is an equilibrium, but the inuence of disturbance creates a dierent behaviour (displacement of the equilibrium or limit cycle, or others) that is to be estimated.

We also set XA = X0 (see Fig. 7.13).

7.5 Conclusions This chapter was devoted to the vector-norms approach. It appears that such a tool addresses the dierent aspects of stability questions: the stability properties themselves (including practical stability with settling time), but also the related question of the domains estimation and, what was not presented here, the question of constrained control, that appears as a direct application of the preceding invariance properties. Vector norms constitute a simple case of vector Lyapunov functions, and the main presented results can be enlarged to this more general class, provided the considered vector Lyapunov functions verify the following connectivity property 161]:
the considered V.L.F. p is regular, radially unbounded, and such that the related following set:
X c = fx 2

{ On the other hand, the main advantage is to allow the unknown disturbing parameters to be taken into account. Lastly, it is important to remark that this chapter was presented in the framework of nonlinear time-invariant systems: but, the method of vector norms addresses more general classes of models, for example nonlinear time-varying systems , or nonlinear time-delay systems with possible time-varying delays 21], 35], 58].
