Invariance principles
Invariance principles
This chapter discusses invariance principles, which characterize the sets to which precompact solutions to a dynamical system must converge. They rely on invariance properties of ω-limit sets of solutions, and additionally on Lyapunov-like functions, which do not increase along solutions, or output functions. Invariance principles which rely on Lyapunov-like functions are first presented, and their applications to the analysis of asymptotic stability are then described. The chapter next states an invariance principle involving not a Lyapunov-like function, but an output function having a certain property not along all solutions, but only along the solution whose behavior is being analyzed. Finally, the chapter presents invariance principles for switching systems with dwell-time switching signals modeled as hybrid systems.
Keywords: invariance principles, precompact solutions, Lyapunov-like functions, asymptotic stability, output function, switching systems, ω-limit sets
