Quasiconformal mappings and radii of normal systems of neighborhoods (Q4939730)

The authors investigate an \(n\)-dimensional system with non-fixed moments of impulses and with the right-hand side depending on certain structural parameters. They introduce the concept of \((\rho_0,\rho)\)-stability. The last one is also called stability with respect to two measures \(\rho_0\) and \(\rho \). Here \(\rho_0:\mathbb R_+\times \mathbb R^n \mapsto \mathbb R_+\) and \(\mathbb R_+\times \mathbb R^n \mapsto \mathbb R_+\) are functions with special properties. The impulsive system is said to be \((\rho_0,\rho)\)-stable for all possible values of structural parameters if for every \(t_0\geq 0\) and every \(\varepsilon >0\) there exists a \(\delta >0\) such that \(\rho(t,x(t))<\varepsilon \) for all \(t\geq t_0\) once \(\rho_0(t_0,x_0)<\delta,\) where \(x(t)\) is the system's solution satisfying \(x(t_0)=x_0\). The authors establish a number of sufficient conditions for \((\rho_0,\rho)\)-stability in terms of matrix-valued Lyapunov functions. Earlier in [Ukr. Mat. Zh. 51, No. 6, 784-795 (1999)] the authors applied their approach to study the stability of linear impulsive system.
