Filling a gap in the literature, this volume offers the first comprehensive analysis of all the major types of system models. Throughout the text, there are many examples and applications to important classes of systems in areas such as power and energy, feedback control, artificial neural networks, digital signal processing and control, manufacturing, computer networks, and socio-economics. Replete with exercises and requiring basic knowledge of linear algebra, analysis, and differential equations, the work may be used as a textbook for graduate courses in stability theory of dynamical systems. The book may also serve as a self-study reference for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in a huge variety of fields.

The second edition of this textbook provides a single source for the analysis of system models represented by continuous-time and discrete-time, finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional, and continuous and discontinuous dynamical systems. For these system models, it presents results which comprise the classical Lyapunov stability theory involving monotonic Lyapunov functions, as well as corresponding contemporary stability results involving non-monotonic Lyapunov functions. Specific examples from several diverse areas are given to demonstrate the applicability of the developed theory to many important classes of systems, including digital control systems, nonlinear regulator systems, pulse-width-modulated feedback control systems, and artificial neural networks. The authors cover the following four general topics: - Representation and modeling of dynamical systems of the types described above - Presentation of Lyapunov and Lagrange stability theory for dynamical systems defined on general metric spaces involving monotonic and non-monotonic Lyapunov functions - Specialization of this stability theory to finite-dimensional dynamical systems - Specialization of this stability theory to infinite-dimensional dynamical systems Replete with examples and requiring only a basic knowledge of linear algebra, analysis, and differential equations, this book can be used as a textbook for graduate courses in stability theory of dynamical systems. It may also serve as a self-study reference for graduate students, researchers, and practitioners in applied mathematics, engineering, computer science, economics, and the physical and life sciences. Review of the First Edition: “The authors have done an excellent job maintaining the rigor of the presentation, and in providing standalone statements for diverse types of systems. This is a very interesting book which complements the existing literature. It is clearly written, and difficult concepts are illustrated by means of good examples.” - Alessandro Astolfi, IEEE Control Systems Magazine, February 2009

This three-part monograph addresses topics in the areas of control systems, signal processing and neural networks. Procedures and results are determined which constitute the first successful synthesis procedure for associative memories by means of artificial neural networks with arbitrarily pre-specified full or partial interconnecting structure and with or without symmetry constraints for the connection matrix.

(Introduces the concept of stability preserving mappings t...)
Introduces the concept of stability preserving mappings to establish a qualitative equivalence between the two dynamical systems - the comparison system and the system to be studied. The book sets out to provide insight into dynamical systems unobtainable by usual treatments of the subject. This work is intended for pure and applied mathematicians; electrical and electronics, mechanical, civil, aerospace, and industrial engineers; control theorists; physicists; computer scientists; chemists; biologists; econometricians; operations researchers; and upper-level undergraduate and graduate students in these disciplines. College or university bookstores may order five or more copies at a special student price which is available on request.
