Nonsmooth stabilizability and feedback linearization of discrete-time nonlinear systems

We consider the problem of stabilizing a discrete-time nonlinear system using a feedback which is not necessarily smooth. A sufficient condition for global dynamical stabilizability of single-input triangular systems is given. We obtain conditions expressed in terms of distributions for the nonsmooth feedback triangularization and linearization of discrete-time systems. Relations between stabilization and linearization of discrete-time systems are given

New Results on Sampled-Data Feedback Stabilization for Autonomous Nonlinear Systems

Sufficient conditions are established for sampled-data feedback global asymptotic stabilization for nonlinear autonomous systems. One of our main results is an extension of the well known Artstein-Sontag theorem on feedback stabilization concerning affine in the control systems. A second aim of the present work is to provide sufficient conditions for sampled-data feedback asymptotic stabilization for two interconnected nonlinear systems. Lie algebraic sufficient conditions are derived for the case of affine in the control interconnected systems without drift terms.Comment: 16 page
