Abstract: Novel criteria for global asymptotic stability of nonlinear uncertain finite-dimensional systems are presented. The results are obtained by a combination of the "discretization approach" and the ideas contained in the proof of the original Matrosov's result. The results can be used for the proof of global asymptotic stability by using continuously differentiable, positive definite functions which do not have a negative semi-definite derivative. Illustrating examples are provided.
