Lyapunov functions are an important tool to determine the basin of attraction of equilibria in Dynamical Systems through their sublevel sets. Recently, several numerical construction methods for Lyapunov functions have been proposed, among them the RBF (Radial Basis Function) and CPA (Continuous Piecewise Affine) methods. While the first method lacks a verification that the constructed function...

The paper presents a new method for higher order sliding mode control using control Lyapunov function for chain of integrator system with nonlinear uncertainties. The stability proof of the suggested scheme is analyzed in terms of two Lyapunov functions using appropriate switching function. Using these Lyapunov functions and switching scheme it is proved that, output and its higher order deriva...

This study addresses the adaptive control and synchronization of the modified Chua’s circuit system with unknown system parameters. Adaptive control law is applied to suppress chaos to one of the three steady states. Adaptive control law is applied to achieve synchronization of two identical modified Chua’s circuit systems. Routh– Hurwitz criteria and Lyapunov direct method are used to study th...

This paper presents a direct fuzzy adaptive control for standalone Wind Energy Conversion Systems (WECS) with Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generators (PMSG). The problem of maximizing power conversion from intermittent wind of time-varying, highly nonlinear WECS is dealt with by an adaptive control algorithm. The adaptation is designed based on the Lyapunov theory and carried out by the fuzzy l...

We consider normal covers of CP with abelian deck group, branched over at most four points. Families of such covers yield arithmetic Teichmüller curves, whose period mapping may be described geometrically in terms of Schwarz triangle mappings. These Teichmüller curves are generated by abelian square-tiled surfaces. We compute all individual Lyapunov exponents for abelian squaretiled surfaces, a...

Abstract. The paper presents a method of determining of the Lyapunov functional for a linear neutral system with an interval time-varying delay. The Lyapunov functional is constructed for the system with a time-varying delay with a given time derivative, which is calculated on the trajectory of the system with a time-varying delay. The presented method gives analytical formulas for the coeffici...

We present a method for the construction of Foster-Lyapunov functions to prove ergodicity of hybrid piecewise-deterministic Markov processes. Our method searches for the Lyapunov function that maximizes a measure of the rate of convergence that appears in the theory of large deviations. We provide conditions under which such a Lyapunov function is the limit of an iterative procedure. Analytical...

The paper presents a method of determining of the Lyapunov quadratic functional for linear time-invariant system with two delays both retarded and neutral type. The Lyapunov functional is constructed for a given its time derivative which is calculated on the trajectory of the system with two delays both retarded and neutral type. The presented method gives analytical formulas for the coefficien...

Abstract: A new method to solve a Lyapunov equation for a discrete delay system is proposed. Using this method, a Lyapunov equation can be solved from a simple linear equation and N -th power of a constant matrix, where N is the state delay. Combining a Lyapunov equation and frequency domain stability, a new stability condition is proposed for a discrete state delay system whose state delay is ...

Lyapunov exponents, important invariants of a complicated dynamical process, can be difficult to determine from experimental data. In particular, when using embedding theory to build chaotic attractors in a reconstruction space, extra “spurious” Lyapunov exponents can arise that are not Lyapunov exponents of the original system. By studying the local linearization matrices that are key to a pop...
