Motivated by recent applications in control theory, we study the feedback
stabilizability of switched systems, where one is allowed to chose the
switching signal as a function of x(t) in order to stabilize the system. We
propose new algorithms and analyze several mathematical features of the problem
which were unnoticed up to now, to our knowledge. We prove complexity results,
(in-)equivalence between various notions of stabilizability, existence of
Lyapunov functions, and provide a case study for a paradigmatic example
introduced by Stanford and Urbano.Comment: 19 pages, 3 figure
