The use of high-order forms in stability analysis

From MaRDI portal





A method is proposed for determining whether forms of arbitrary high order are positive or negative definite in a region of \(R^ n\) coinciding with one of the coordinate angles. Using such functions, one can then establish various modifications of well-known results of stability theory. A theorem of \textit{L. T. Grujić} [Internat. J. Control, I. Ser. 20, 453-463 (1974; Zbl 0291.93038)] concerning the exponential stability of large-scale systems, generalized to the case of m-th order estimates, yields new zones of absolute stability for the equations of translational motion of an aircraft. Various results are established pertaining to the monotone stability of systems in which the right-hand side is a polynomial of a special kind.
