  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. Stability theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stability_theory

    Various criteria have been developed to prove stability or instability of an orbit. Under favorable circumstances, the question may be reduced to a well-studied problem involving eigenvalues of matrices. A more general method involves Lyapunov functions. In practice, any one of a number of different stability criteria are applied.

  5. Lyapunov exponent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_exponent

    Lyapunov proved that if the system of the first approximation is regular (e.g., all systems with constant and periodic coefficients are regular) and its largest Lyapunov exponent is negative, then the solution of the original system is asymptotically Lyapunov stable. Later, it was stated by O. Perron that the requirement of regularity of the ...

  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. Conley's fundamental theorem of dynamical systems - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conley's_fundamental...

    Conley's decomposition is characterized by a function known as complete Lyapunov function. Unlike traditional Lyapunov functions that are used to assert the stability of an equilibrium point (or a fixed point) and can be defined only on the basin of attraction of the corresponding attractor, complete Lyapunov functions must be defined on the whole phase-portrait.

  8. 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.

  9. Floquet theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floquet_theory

    The real parts of the Floquet exponents are called Lyapunov exponents. The zero solution is asymptotically stable if all Lyapunov exponents are negative, Lyapunov stable if the Lyapunov exponents are nonpositive and unstable otherwise. Floquet theory is very important for the study of dynamical systems, such as the Mathieu equation.
