During the last decade a considerable progress has been made in the design of stabilizing controllers for nonlinear systems with known and unknown constant parameters. New design tools such as adaptive feedback linearization, adaptive backstepping, control Lyapunov functions (CLFs) and robust control Lyapunov functions (RCLFs), nonlinear damping and switching adaptive control have been introduc...

The main result of the paper states that almost any analytic single-input control system, which is truly nonlinear, that is not feedback linearizable, with controllable linearization at an equilibrium point, does not admit any symmetry preserving that point. By almost any system, we mean that we exclude a small class of odd systems, that admit just one nontrivial symmetry conjugated to minus id...

The problem of robust stabilization of nonlinear systems with feedback linearizable nominal part and norm-bounded nonlinear uncertainties is investigated. Necessary and sufficient conditions are obtained for robust stabilization of such systems. A design procedure is developed which combines feedback linearization technique and quadratic stabilization via linear feedback to achieve robust globa...

One of the classical problems of nonlinear systems and control theory is feedback linearization. Its obvious motivation is that one can utilize linear control theory if the nonlinear system at hand is linearizable by feedback. This problem is well-understood for the smooth nonlinear systems. In the present paper, we investigate feedback linearizability of a class of piecewise linear, and hence ...

This paper investigates the use of nonregular (not necessarily regular) static/dynamic state feedbacks to achieve feedback linearization of affine nonlinear systems. First, we provide an example which is nonregular static feedback linearizable but is not regular dynamic feedback linearizable. Then, we present some necessary conditions as well as sufficient conditions for nonregular feedback lin...

We investigate a new class of nonlinear control systems of O.D.E., which are not feedback linearizable in general. Our class is a generalization of the well-known feedback linearizable systems, and moreover it is a generalization of the triangular (or pure-feedback) forms studied before. The definition of our class is global, and coordinate-free, which is why the problem of the equivalence is s...

In this paper we address the problem of state (resp. feedback) linearization of nonlinear single-input control systems using state (resp. feedback) coordinate transformations. Although necessary and sufficient geometric conditions have been provided in the early eighties, the problems of finding the state (resp. feedback) linearizing coordinates are subject to solving systems of partial differe...
