Solutions to Lyapunov stability problems of sets: nonlinear systems with differentiable motions
Time-invariant nonlinear systems with differentiable motions are considered. The algorithmic necessary and sufficient conditions are established in various forms for one-shot construction of a Lyapunov function, for asymptotic stability of a compact invariant set and for the exact determination of the asymptotic stability domain of the invariant set.The classical conditions are expressed in terms of existence of a system Lyapunov functions. The conditions of theorems presented herein are expressed via properties of the solution?to??=-p, or of the solution?to??=-(1-?)p, for arbitrarily selectedp?P(S;f)orp?P1(S;f), where familiesP(S;f)andP1(S;f)are well defined. The equation??=-p, or its equivalent??=-(1-?)p, should be solved only for one selection of the functionp.
