This paper investigates the global chaos synchronization of identical Pan systems (Pan, Xu and Zhou, 2010) by sliding mode control. The stability results derived in this paper for the complete synchronization of identical Pan systems are established using Lyapunov stability theory. Since the Lyapunov exponents are not required for these calculations, the sliding mode control method is very effe...

In this paper we present various algorithms both for stability and performance analysis of discrete-time Piece-Wise Affine (PWA) systems. For stability, different classes of Lyapunov functions are considered and it is shown how to compute them through Linear Matrix Inequalities that take into account the switching structure of the systems. We also show that the continuity of the Lyapunov functi...

In this paper, a direct adaptive control scheme for a class of nonlinear systems is proposed. The architecture employs a Gaussian radial basis function (RBF) network to construct an adaptive controller. The parameters of the adaptive controller are adapted and changed according to a law derived using Lyapunov stability theory. The centres of the RBF network are adapted on line using the kmeans ...

We demonstrate a vast expansion of the theory of evolutionary stability to finite populations with mutation, connecting the theory of the stationary distribution of the Moran process with the Lyapunov theory of evolutionary stability. We define the notion of stationary stability for the Moran process with mutation and generalizations, as well as a generalized notion of evolutionary stability th...
