The book investigates stability theory in terms of two different measure, exhibiting the advantage of employing families of Lyapunov functions and treats the theory of a variety of inequalities, clearly bringing out the underlying theme. It also demonstrates manifestations of the general Lyapunov method, showing how this technique can be adapted to various apparently diverse nonlinear problems.…
The first edition of this book was published in 1989 by Marcel Dekker, Inc. For the last two decades the methods of stability investigation of nonlinear systems presented in this book have acquired further development and have been widely applied in the investigation of some types of contemporary dynamical systems. We note here the following directions only: practical stability; fuzzy differ…
