  2. Exponential stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_stability

    Physics; Chemistry; ... Systems that are not LTI are exponentially stable if their convergence is bounded by exponential decay. Exponential stability is a form of ...

  3. 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 ...

  4. Lyapunov stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lyapunov_stability

    The notion of exponential stability guarantees a minimal rate of decay, i.e., an estimate of how quickly the solutions converge. The idea of Lyapunov stability can be extended to infinite-dimensional manifolds, where it is known as structural stability, which concerns the behavior of different but "nearby" solutions to differential equations.

  5. 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.

  6. Linear stability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_stability

    Other names for linear stability include exponential stability or stability in terms of first approximation. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] If there exists an eigenvalue with zero real part then the question about stability cannot be solved on the basis of the first approximation and we approach the so-called "centre and focus problem".

    exponential stability A system that settles to a steady state after a disturbance, at a rate proportional to exponential time. extended Kalman filter A strategy for estimating an unknown value in a non-linear system by combining multiple measurements.

  8. Exponential dichotomy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exponential_dichotomy

    The matrix P is a projection onto the stable subspace and I − P is a projection onto the unstable subspace. What the exponential dichotomy says is that the norm of the projection onto the stable subspace of any orbit in the system decays exponentially as t → ∞ and the norm of the projection onto the unstable subspace of any orbit decays exponentially as t → −∞, and furthermore that ...

  9. Half-life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Half-life

    Half-life (symbol t ½) is the time required for a quantity (of substance) to reduce to half of its initial value.The term is commonly used in nuclear physics to describe how quickly unstable atoms undergo radioactive decay or how long stable atoms survive.
