Abstract
By computing Lyapunov functions of a certain, convenient structure, Lyapunov-based methods guarantee stability properties of the system or, when performing synthesis, of the relevant closed-loop or error dynamics. In doing so, they provide conclusive affirmative answers to many analysis and design questions in systems and control. When these methods fail to produce a feasible solution, however, they often remain inconclusive due to (a) the method being conservative or (b) the fact that there may be multiple causes for infeasibility, such as ill-conditioning, solver tolerances or true infeasibility. To overcome this, we develop linear-matrix-inequality-based theorems of alternatives based upon which we can guarantee, by computing a so-called certificate of nonexistence, that no poly-quadratic Lyapunov function exists for a given linear parameter-varying system. We extend these ideas to also certify the nonexistence of controllers and observers for which the corresponding closed-loop/error dynamics admit a poly-quadratic Lyapunov function. Finally, we illustrate our results in some numerical case studies.
期刊介绍：
Automatica is a leading archival publication in the field of systems and control. The field encompasses today a broad set of areas and topics, and is thriving not only within itself but also in terms of its impact on other fields, such as communications, computers, biology, energy and economics. Since its inception in 1963, Automatica has kept abreast with the evolution of the field over the years, and has emerged as a leading publication driving the trends in the field.
After being founded in 1963, Automatica became a journal of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC) in 1969. It features a characteristic blend of theoretical and applied papers of archival, lasting value, reporting cutting edge research results by authors across the globe. It features articles in distinct categories, including regular, brief and survey papers, technical communiqués, correspondence items, as well as reviews on published books of interest to the readership. It occasionally publishes special issues on emerging new topics or established mature topics of interest to a broad audience.
Automatica solicits original high-quality contributions in all the categories listed above, and in all areas of systems and control interpreted in a broad sense and evolving constantly. They may be submitted directly to a subject editor or to the Editor-in-Chief if not sure about the subject area. Editorial procedures in place assure careful, fair, and prompt handling of all submitted articles. Accepted papers appear in the journal in the shortest time feasible given production time constraints.
