We consider a number of questions pertaining to the stability of positive switched linear systems. Recent results on common quadratic, diagonal, and copositive Lyapunov function existence are reviewed and their connection to the stability properties of switched positive linear systems is highlighted. We also generalise the concept of D-stability to positive switched linear systems and present s...

Abstract The problem of estimating the Domain of Attraction (DA) of equilibria of polynomial systems is considered. Specifically, the computation of the quadratic Lyapunov function which maximizes the volume of the estimate is addressed. In order to solve this double non-convex optimization problem, a semi-convex approach based on Linear Matrix Inequalities (LMIs) is proposed. Moreover, for the...

In this paper the existence of a quadratic control Lyapunov function for bilinear systems is considered. The existence of a control Lyapunov function ensures the existence of a control law which ensures the global asymptotic stability of the closed loop control system. In this paper we will derive conditions for the existence of a control Lyapunov function for bilinear systems. These conditions...

The paper deals with the stability properties of linear discrete-time switched systems with polytopic sets of modes. The most classical and viable way of studying the uniform asymptotic stability of such a system is to check for the existence of a quadratic Lyapunov function. It is known from the literature that letting the Lyapunov function depend on the time-varying switching parameter improv...

It is shown that for smooth nonlinear systems conditions for the existence of a Lyapunov function that guarantees uniform exponential stability can be formulated as linear inequalities deened pointwise in the state-space when assuming a general linearly parameterized class of smooth non-quadratic Lyapunov-function candidates. Hence, computation of the Lyapunov function involves the solution of ...
