We study the conditions for positive recurrence and transience of multi-dimensional birth-and-death processes describing the evolution of a large class of stochastic systems, a typical example being the randomly varying number of flow-level transfers in a telecommunication wire-line or wireless network. First, using an associated deterministic dynamical system, we provide a generic method to construct a Lyapunov function when the drift is a smooth function on ℝN. This approach gives an elementary and direct proof of ergodicity. We also provide instability conditions. Our main contribution consists of showing how discontinuous drifts change the nature of the stability conditions and of providing generic sufficient stability conditions having a simple geometric interpretation. These conditions turn out to be necessary (outside a negligible set of the parameter space) for piecewise constant drifts in dimension two.

Abstract The key result in the theory of Bridgeland stability conditions is the property that they form a complex manifold. This comes from the fact that given any small deformation of the central charge, there is a unique way to correspondingly deform the stability condition. We give a short direct proof of an effective version of this deformation property.

This paper is concerned with the problems of absolute stability and master-slave synchronization of systems with state-dependent nonlinearities. The Kalman-Yakubovich-Popov (KYP) lemma and the Schur complement formula are applied to get novel and less conservative stability conditions. A numerical example is presented to illustrate the efficiency of the stability criteria. Furthermore, a synchronization criterion is developed based on the proposed stability results.

Abstract In this paper, I study the conditions imposed on a normal charged fluid so that the causality and stability criteria hold for this fluid. I adopt the newly developed General Frame (GF) notion in the relativistic hydrodynamics framework which states that hydrodynamic frames have to be fixed after applying the stability and causality conditions. To do this, I take a charged conformal matter in the flat and 3 + 1 dimension to analyze better these conditions. The causality condition is applied by looking to the asymptotic velocity of sound hydro modes at the large wave number limit and stability conditions are imposed by looking to the imaginary parts of hydro modes as well as the Routh-Hurwitz criteria. By fixing some of the transports, the suitable spaces for other ones are derived. I observe that in a dense medium having a finite U(1) charge with chemical potential μ0, negative values for transports appear and the second law of thermodynamics has not ruled out the existence of such values. Sign of scalar transports are not limited by any constraints and just a combination of vector transports is limited by the second law of thermodynamic. Also numerically it is proved that the most favorable region for transports $$ {\tilde{\upgamma}}_{1,2}, $$ γ ˜ 1 , 2 , coefficients of the dissipative terms of the current, is of negative values.

Using an event-based switching law, we address the stability issue for continuous-time switched affine systems in the network environment. The state-dependent switching law in terms of the region function is firstly developed. We combine the region function with the event-triggering mechanism to construct the switching law. This can provide more candidates for the selection of the next activated subsystem at each switching instant. As a result, it is possible for us to activate the appropriate subsystem to avoid the sliding motion. The Zeno behavior for the switched affine system can be naturally ruled out by guaranteeing a positive minimum inter-event time between two consecutive executions of the event-triggering threshold. Finally, two numerical examples are given to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

AbstractThe main challenge of the stability analysis for general polynomial control systems is that non-convex terms exist in the stability conditions, which hinders solving the stability conditions numerically. Most approaches in the literature impose constraints on the Lyapunov function candidates or the non-convex related terms to circumvent this problem. Motivated by this difficulty, in this paper, we confront the non-convex problem directly and present an iterative stability analysis to address the long-standing problem in general polynomial control systems. Different from the existing methods, no constraints are imposed on the polynomial Lyapunov function candidates. Therefore, the limitations on the Lyapunov function candidate and non-convex terms are eliminated from the proposed analysis, which makes the proposed method more general than the state-of-the-art. In the proposed approach, the stability for the general polynomial model is analyzed and the original non-convex stability conditions are developed. To solve the non-convex stability conditions through the sum-of-squares programming, the iterative stability analysis is presented. The feasible solutions are verified by the original non-convex stability conditions to guarantee the asymptotic stability of the general polynomial system. The detailed simulation example is provided to verify the effectiveness of the proposed approach. The simulation results show that the proposed approach is more capable to find feasible solutions for the general polynomial control systems when compared with the existing ones.

This paper extends the stochastic stability criteria of two measures to the mean stability and proves the stability criteria for a kind of stochastic Itô’s systems. Moreover, by applying optimal control approaches, the mean stability criteria in terms of two measures are also obtained for the stochastic systems with coefficient’s uncertainty.

Abstract In this paper we study the numerical performance of a parameter identification technique, based on approximation by equations with piecewise constant arguments, on various classes of hereditary systems. The examples considered here include delay equations with state-dependent delays and neutral equations.
