The paper establishes the design procedure for the state feedback control of linear discrete-time systems, considerable as an interposed design criterium in the form of linear matrix inequalities. The goal is to design the feedback control which guarantees bounded H2 performance index for the system transfer function matrix and H∞ norm attenuation for the disturbance transfer function matrix, b...

For both discrete-time and continuous-time linear multi-variable control systems, we introduce a concept of control Lyapunov modes associated with a control Lyapunov function in a quadratic form. We prove that the number of unstable control Lyapunov modes is at most equal to the number of input of the system.

In this work we deal with global stability properties of classic SIS, SIR and SIRS epidemic models with constant recruitment rate, mass action incidence and variable population size. The usual approach to determine global stability of equilibria is the direct Lyapunov method which requires the construction of a function with specific properties. In this work we construct different Lyapunov func...

Using duality and complementarity ideas, and Z-transformations, in this article, we discuss equivalent ways of describing the existence of common linear/quadratic Lyapunov functions for switched linear systems. In particular, we extend a recent result of Mason-Shorten on positive switched system with two constituent linear time-invariant systems to an arbitrary finite system.

The issue of constrained output feedback receding horizon control (RHC) for Takagi-Sugeno systems is studied in this paper. strategy developed through parameterizing the infinite moves as a non-parallel distributed compensation (non-PDC) law. parameter-dependent non-PDC controller optimized manner. extended non-quadratic Lyapunov function serves to guarantee robust stability augmented closed-lo...

We propose the notion of nondecreasing Lyapunov functions which can be used to prove stability or other properties of the system in question. This notion is in particular useful in studying switched or hybrid systems. We illustrate the concept by a general construction of such a nondecreasing Lyapunov function for a class of planar hybrid systems. It is noted that this class encompasses switche...

In this paper we prove that all A-stable Padé approximations for the matrix exponential preserve common quadratic Lyapunov functions for switched linear systems.

We use discrete quadratic Lyapunov functions to design controllers for a class of systems where time intervals between state measurements are longer than time intervals between control actions and different components of the state vector are not measured at the same time. The discrete Lyapunov function is a discretization of a continuous Lyapunov function assumed to be known for the idealized s...

‎The purpose of this paper is to solve two types of Lyapunov equations and quadratic matrix equations by using the spectral representation‎. ‎We focus on solving Lyapunov equations $AX+XA^*=C$ and $AX+XA^{T}=-bb^{T}$ for $A‎, ‎X in mathbb{C}^{n times n}$ and $b in mathbb{C} ^{n times s}$ with $s < n$‎, ‎which $X$ is unknown matrix‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we suggest the new method for solving quadratic matri...
