Stability theory

Lyapunov function

In the theory of ordinary differential equations (ODEs), Lyapunov functions, named after Aleksandr Lyapunov, are scalar functions that may be used to prove the stability of an equilibrium of an ODE. Lyapunov functions (also called Lyapunov’s second method for stability) are important to stability theory of dynamical systems and control theory. A similar concept appears in the theory of general state space Markov chains, usually under the name Foster–Lyapunov functions. For certain classes of ODEs, the existence of Lyapunov functions is a necessary and sufficient condition for stability. Whereas there is no general technique for constructing Lyapunov functions for ODEs, in many specific cases the construction of Lyapunov functions is known. For instance, quadratic functions suffice for systems with one state; the solution of a particular linear matrix inequality provides Lyapunov functions for linear systems; and conservation laws can often be used to construct Lyapunov functions for physical systems.

Lyapunov Stability via Sperner's Lemma

We go on whistle stop tour of one of the most fundamental tools from control theory: the Lyapunov function. But with a twist from combinatorics and topology. For more on Sperner's Lemma, including a simple derivation, please see the following wonderful video, which was my main source of i

Lyapunov's Fractal (that Lyapunov knew nothing about) #SoME2

Hi everyone! I hope you enjoy my first video. I've known about Markus-Lyapunov Fractals for a few years now, and it surprised me that I couldn't find any video explaining how they work - so I thought I'd take a stab at it myself! This is also my submission for Summer of Math Exposition 2.
