  2. Lyapunov function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_function

    A Lyapunov function for an autonomous dynamical system {: ˙ = ()with an equilibrium point at = is a scalar function: that is continuous, has continuous first derivatives, is strictly positive for , and for which the time derivative ˙ = is non positive (these conditions are required on some region containing the origin).

  3. Lyapunov stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_stability

    The definition for discrete-time systems is almost identical to that for continuous-time systems. The definition below provides this, using an alternate language commonly used in more mathematical texts. Let (X, d) be a metric space and f : X → X a continuous function. A point x in X is said to be Lyapunov stable, if,

  4. Lyapunov exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_exponent

    In mathematics, the Lyapunov exponent or Lyapunov characteristic exponent of a dynamical system is a quantity that characterizes the rate of separation of infinitesimally close trajectories.

  5. Stability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_theory

    In mathematics, stability theory addresses the stability of solutions of differential equations and of trajectories of dynamical systems under small perturbations of initial conditions. The heat equation , for example, is a stable partial differential equation because small perturbations of initial data lead to small variations in temperature ...

  6. Lyapunov optimization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_optimization

    Lyapunov functions are used extensively in control theory to ensure different forms of system stability. The state of a system at a particular time is often described by a multi-dimensional vector. A Lyapunov function is a nonnegative scalar measure of this multi-dimensional state.

  7. Control-Lyapunov function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control-Lyapunov_function

    The ordinary Lyapunov function is used to test whether a dynamical system is (Lyapunov) stable or (more restrictively) asymptotically stable. Lyapunov stability means that if the system starts in a state x ≠ 0 {\displaystyle x\neq 0} in some domain D , then the state will remain in D for all time.

  8. Lyapunov equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_equation

    In particular, the discrete-time Lyapunov equation (also known as Stein equation) for is A X A H − X + Q = 0 {\displaystyle AXA^{H}-X+Q=0} where Q {\displaystyle Q} is a Hermitian matrix and A H {\displaystyle A^{H}} is the conjugate transpose of A {\displaystyle A} , while the continuous-time Lyapunov equation is

  9. LaSalle's invariance principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaSalle's_invariance_principle

    If ˙ is negative definite, then the global asymptotic stability of the origin is a consequence of Lyapunov's second theorem. The invariance principle gives a criterion for asymptotic stability in the case when V ˙ ( x ) {\displaystyle {\dot {V}}(\mathbf {x} )} is only negative semidefinite.
