The Stochastic Asymptotic Stability Analysis in Two Species Lotka-Volterra Model

The asymptotic stability of two species stochastic Lotka-Volterra model is explored in this paper. Firstly, the Lotka-Volterra model with random parameter is built and reduced into the equivalent deterministic system by orthogonal polynomial approximation. Then, the linear stability theory and Routh-Hurwitz criterion for nonlinear deterministic systems are applied to the equivalent one. At last, at the aid of Lyapunov second method, we obtain that as the random intensity or statistical parameter of random variable is changed, the stability about stochastic Lotka-Volterra model is different from the deterministic system.

On the Asymptotic Stability of Discrete Crocodilians Model

The sex ratio of crocodiles is strongly biased towards females, often as high as 10 females to 1 male. In crocodilians, the temperature of egg incubation is the environmental factor determining sex. If the temperature is low, around 30˚C, the hatchlings are all females. Higher temperature, around 34˚C, hatch all males. This study was made to consider the asymptotic stability of a positive equilibrium point in a nonlinear discrete model of the basic nesting population model, which is described in three-region depending on the temperature of egg incubation. This model is based on key life-historical data and Murray’s research. To study above, we have applied the classical linearization method and P. Cull’s method and moreover, we employ non-standard discretization methods for later our Equations (6)-(8) and (15).

Asymptotic Stability in the Large of Zero Solution of Second Order Nonlinear Differential Equation

There are many works on the asymptotic stability of second dimensional nonlinear differential equation. In particular, these results only concern with the system which includes one or two terms, whereas few works concern with system which includes more than two terms. In this paper, system which includes four nonlinear terms are studies. We obtain the global asymptotic stability of zero solution, and discard the condition which require the Liapunov function trends to infinity, and only require that the positive orbit is bounded.

Global robust stabilization of feedforward systems with uncertainties

This paper studies the global robust stabilization problem for a class of feedforward systems that is subject to both dynamic and time-varying static uncertainties. A small gain theorem-based bottom-up recursive design is developed for constructing a nested saturation control law. At each recursion, two versions of small gain theorem with restrictions are employed to establish the global attractiveness and local stability of the closed-loop system at the equilibrium point, respectively.

Adaptive Sensor-Fault Tolerant Control of Unmanned Underwater Vehicles With Input Saturation

This paper investigates the tracking control problem for unmanned underwater vehicles(UUVs)systems with sensor faults,input saturation,and external disturbance caused by waves and ocean currents.An active sensor fault-tolerant control scheme is proposed.First,the developed method only requires the inertia matrix of the UUV,without other dynamic information,and can handle both additive and multiplicative sensor faults.Subsequently,an adaptive fault-tolerant controller is designed to achieve asymptotic tracking control of the UUV by employing robust integral of the sign of error feedback method.It is shown that the effect of sensor faults is online estimated and compensated by an adaptive estimator.With the proposed controller,the tracking error and estimation error can asymptotically converge to zero.Finally,simulation results are performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Dynamical behaviors of a class of second order Hopfield neural networks with time delays is investigated.The existence of a unique equilibrium point is proved by using Brouwer's fixed point theorem and the counter proof method,and some sufficient conditions for the global asymptotic stability of the equilibrium point are obtained through the combination of a suitable Lyapunov function and an algebraic inequality technique.

Robust stabilization of uncertain nonholonomic systems with strong nonlinear drifts

This paper investigates the robust stabilization of the nonholonomic control systems with strongly non- linear uncertainties. In order to make the state scaling effective and to prevent the finite time escape phenomenon from happening, the switching control strategy based on the state measurement of the first subsystem is employed to achieve the asymptotic stabilization. The recursive integrator backstepping technique is applied to the design of the robust controller. The simulation example demonstrates the efficiency and robust features of the proposed method.

Stability of a Delayed Stochastic Epidemic COVID-19 Model with Vaccination and with Differential Susceptibility

In this paper, we treat the spread of COVID-19 using a delayed stochastic SVIRS (Susceptible, Infected, Recovered, Susceptible) epidemic model with a general incidence rate and differential susceptibility. We start with a deterministic model, then add random perturbations on the contact rate using white noise to obtain a stochastic model. We first show that the delayed stochastic differential equation that describes the model has a unique global positive solution for any positive initial value. Under the condition R0 ≤ 1, we prove the almost sure asymptotic stability of the disease-free equilibrium of the model.

A delayed n-species nonautonomous Lotka-Volterra type competitive system without dominating instantaneous negative feedback is investigated. By means of a suitable Lyapunov functional, sufficient conditions are derived for the global asymptotic stability of the positive solutions of the system. As a corollary, it is shown that the global asymptotic stability of the positive solution is maintained provided that the delayed negative feedbacks dominate other interspecific interaction effects with delays and the delays are sufficiently small.

GLOBAL ASYMPTOTICAL PROPERTIES FOR A DIFFUSED HBV INFECTION MODEL WITH CTL IMMUNE RESPONSE AND NONLINEAR INCIDENCE

This article proposes a diffused hepatitis B virus （HBV） model with CTL immune response and nonlinear incidence for the control of viral infections. By means of different Lyapunov functions, the global asymptotical properties of the viral-free equilibrium and immune-free equilibrium of the model are obtained. Global stability of the positive equilibrium of the model is also considered. The results show that the free diffusion of the virus has no effect on the global stability of such HBV infection problem with Neumann homogeneous boundary conditions.

This paper studies the stochastic asymptotical stability of stochastic impulsive differential equations, and establishes a comparison theory to ensure the trivial solution＇s stochastic asymptotical stability. From the comparison theory, it can find out whether the stochastic impulsive differential system is stable just by studying the stability of a deterministic comparison system. As a general application of this theory, it controls the chaos of stochastic Lii system using impulsive control method, and numerical simulations are employed to verify the feasibility of this method.

Asymptotical stability analysis of linear fractional differential systems

It has been recently found that many models were established with the aid of fractional derivatives, such as viscoelastic systems, colored noise, electrode-electrolyte polarization, dielectric polarization, boundary layer effects in ducts, electromagnetic waves, quantitative finance, quantum evolution of complex systems, and fractional kinetics. In this paper, the asymptotical stability of higher-dimensional linear fractional differential systems with the Riemann-Liouville fractional order and Caputo fractional order were studied. The asymptotical stability theorems were also derived.

LMI-based approach for global asymptotic stability analysis of continuous BAM neural networks

Studies on the stability of the equilibrium points of continuous bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural network have yielded many useful results. A novel neural network model called standard neural network model (SNNM) is ad- vanced. By using state affine transformation, the BAM neural networks were converted to SNNMs. Some sufficient conditions for the global asymptotic stability of continuous BAM neural networks were derived from studies on the SNNMs’ stability. These conditions were formulated as easily verifiable linear matrix inequalities (LMIs), whose conservativeness is relatively low. The approach proposed extends the known stability results, and can also be applied to other forms of recurrent neural networks (RNNs).

Study on Robust Uniform Asymptotical Stability for Uncertain Linear Impulsive Delay Systems

In the area of control theory the time-delay systems have been investigated. It's well known that delays often result in instability, therefore, stability analysis of time-delay systems is an important subject in control theory. As a result, many criteria for testing the stability of linear time-delay systems have been proposed. Significant progress has been made in the theory of impulsive systems and impulsive delay systems in recent years. However, the corresponding theory for uncertain impulsive systems and uncertain impulsive delay systems has not been fully developed. In this paper, robust stability criteria are established for uncertain linear delay impulsive systems by using Lyapunov function, Razumikhin techniques and the results obtained. Some examples are given to illustrate our theory.

Global asymptotic stability for Hopfield-type neural networks with diffusion effects

The existence, uniqueness and global asymptotic stability for the equilibrium of Hopfield-type neural networks with diffusion effects are studied. When the activation functions are monotonously nondecreasing, differentiable, and the interconnected matrix is related to the Lyapunov diagonal stable matrix, the sufficient conditions guaranteeing the existence of the equilibrium of the system are obtained by applying the topological degree theory. By means of constructing the suitable average Lyapunov functions, the global asymptotic stability of the equilibrium of the system is also investigated. It is shown that the equilibrium （if it exists） is globally asymptotically stable and this implies that the equilibrium of the system is unique.
