In this paper the so-called Lur'e problem is discussed. The Lur'e problem, according to the terminology of \textit{J. La Salle} and \textit{S. Lefschetz} [Stability by Lyapunov's direct method, New York, London, Academic Press (1961; Zbl 0098.06102), \textit{S. Lefschetz}, Stability of nonlinear control systems, New York, London, Academic Press (1965; Zbl 0136.08801)], is the problem of stability of control systems with stable linear part and saturated nonlinearity. This problem was formulated in general form and solved for simple systems by Lur'e in his famous book [\textit{A. I. Lur'e}, Some nonlinear problems in the theory of automatic regulation (Russian) (Moskva, Gostekhizdat) (1951)]. Variants of this problem are discussed, for example, in the book [\textit{A. A. Pervozvanskij}, A course in automatic control theory, Moskva, Nauka (1986)]. In this book the Lyapunov function of the Lur'e problem with saturated nonlinearity is discussed. Such a function is used in the reviewed paper. The authors mention the well-known connection of the optimality principle with the existence of Lyapunov functions.
