We consider a general quasi-variational inequality problem involving nonlinear, nonconvex and nondifferentiable term in uniformly smooth Banach space. Using retraction mapping and fixed point method, we study the existence of solution of general quasivariational inequality problem and discuss the convergence analysis and stability of a three-step iterative algorithm for general quasi-variationa...

In this paper, we derive a nonlinear Picone identity to the pseudo p-Laplace operator, which contains some known Picone identities and removes a condition used in many previous papers. Some applications are given including a Liouville type theorem to the singular pseudo p-Laplace system, a Sturmian comparison principle to the pseudo p-Laplace equation, a new Hardy type inequality with weight an...

ABSTRACT: In this paper we derive guaranteed hybrid gain, sector, and disk margins for nonlinear optimal and inverse optimal hybrid regulators that minimize a nonlinear-nonquadratic hybrid performance functional. Furthermore, we develop a hybrid return difference inequality to provide connections between dissipativity and optimality of nonlinear hybrid controllers. Specifically, we show that op...

This paper investigates an application of Neural Networks (NNs) to the decentralized guaranteed H∞ performance for a class of large-scale uncertain nonlinear systems. In order to guarantee the adequate H∞ performance level for the nonlinear systems, nonlinear linear matrix inequality (NLMI) condition is derived. The linear matrix inequality (LMI) approach instead of the NLMI is used to construc...

In this paper, the stability analysis of a GA-Based adaptive fuzzy sliding model controller for a nonlinear system is discussed. First, a nonlinear plant is well-approximated and described with a reference model and a fuzzy model, both involving FLC rules. Then, FLC rules and the consequent parameter are decided on via an Evolved Bat Algorithm (EBA). After this, we guarantee a new tracking perf...

In this paper we provide a systematic way to construct the robust counterpart of a nonlinear uncertain inequality that is concave in the uncertain parameters. We use convex analysis (support functions, conjugate functions, Fenchel duality) and conic duality in order to convert the robust counterpart into an explicit and computationally tractable set of constraints. It turns out that to do so on...
