We propose a sampling-based approach to learn Lyapunov functions for a class of discrete-time autonomous hybrid systems that admit a mixed-integer representation. Such systems include autonomous piecewise affine systems, closed-loop dynamics of linear systems with model predictive controllers, piecewise affine/linear complementarity/mixed-logical dynamical system in feedback with a ReLU neural network controller, etc. The proposed method comprises an alternation between a learner and a verifier to find a valid Lyapunov function inside a convex set of Lyapunov function candidates. In each iteration, the learner uses a collection of state samples to select a Lyapunov function candidate through a convex program in the parameter space. The verifier then solves a mixed-integer quadratic program in the state space to either validate the proposed Lyapunov function candidate or reject it with a counterexample, i.e., a state where the Lyapunov condition fails. This counterexample is then added to the sample set of the learner to refine the set of Lyapunov function candidates. By designing the learner and the verifier according to the analytic center cutting-plane method from convex optimization, we show that when the set of Lyapunov functions is full-dimensional in the parameter space, our method finds a Lyapunov function in a finite number of steps. We demonstrate our stability analysis method on closed-loop MPC dynamical systems and a ReLU neural network controlled PWA system.

We propose a learning-based method for Lyapunov stability analysis of piecewise affine dynamical systems in feedback with piecewise affine neural network controllers. The proposed method consists of an iterative interaction between a learner and a ve rifier, where in each iteration, the learner uses a collection of samples of the closed-loop system to propose a Lyapunov function candidate as the solution to a convex program. The learner then queries the verifier, which solves a mixed-integer program to either validate the proposed Lyapunov function candidate or reject it with a counterexample, i.e., a state where the stability condition fails. This counterexample is then added to the sample set of the learner to refine the set of Lyapunov function candidates. We design the learner and the verifier based on the analytic center cutting-plane method, in which the verifier acts as the cutting-plane oracle to refine the set of Lyapunov function candidates. We show that when the set of Lyapunov functions is full-dimensional in the parameter space, the overall procedure finds a Lyapunov function in a finite number of iterations. We demonstrate the utility of the proposed method in searching for quadratic and piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions.
This paper presents a novel scalable framework to solve the optimization of a nonlinear system with differential algebraic equation (DAE) constraints that enforce the asymptotic stability of the underlying dynamic model with respect to certain distur bances. Existing solution approaches to analogous DAE-constrained problems are based on discretization of DAE system into a large set of nonlinear algebraic equations representing the time-marching schemes. These approaches are not scalable to large size models. The proposed framework, based on LaSalles invariance principle, uses convex Lyapunov functions to develop a novel stability certificate which consists of a limited number of algebraic constraints. We develop specific algorithms for two major types of nonlinearities, namely Lure, and quasi-polynomial systems. Quadratic and convex-sum-of-square Lyapunov functions are constructed for the Lure-type and quasi-polynomial systems respectively. A numerical experiment is performed on a 3-generator power network to obtain a solution for transient-stability-constrained optimal power flow.
We consider an abstract class of infinite-dimensional dynamical systems with inputs. For this class, the significance of noncoercive Lyapunov functions is analyzed. It is shown that the existence of such Lyapunov functions implies norm-to-integral in put-to-state stability. This property in turn is equivalent to input-to-state stability if the system satisfies certain mild regularity assumptions. For a particular class of linear systems with unbounded admissible input operators, explicit constructions of noncoercive Lyapunov functions are provided. The theory is applied to a heat equation with Dirichlet boundary conditions.
Self-triggered control (STC) is a well-established technique to reduce the amount of samples for sampled-data systems, and is hence particularly useful for Networked Control Systems. At each sampling instant, an STC mechanism determines not only an u pdated control input but also when the next sample should be taken. In this paper, a dynamic STC mechanism for nonlinear systems is proposed. The mechanism incorporates a dynamic variable for determining the next sampling instant. Such a dynamic variable for the trigger decision has been proven to be a powerful tool for increasing sampling intervals in the closely related concept of event-triggered control, but was so far not exploited for STC. This gap is closed in this paper. For the proposed mechanism, the dynamic variable is chosen to be the filtered values of the Lyapunov function at past sampling instants. The next sampling instant is, based on the dynamic variable and on hybrid Lyapunov function techniques, chosen such that an average decrease of the Lyapunov function is ensured. The proposed mechanism is illustrated with a numerical example from the literature. For this example, the obtained sampling intervals are significantly larger than for existing static STC mechanisms. This paper is the accepted version of [1], containing also proofs of the main results.
We study convergence of nonlinear systems in the presence of an `almost Lyapunov function which, unlike the classical Lyapunov function, is allowed to be nondecreasing---and even increasing---on a nontrivial subset of the phase space. Under the assum ption that the vector field is free of singular points (away from the origin) and that the subset where the Lyapunov function does not decrease is sufficiently small, we prove that solutions approach a small neighborhood of the origin. A nontrivial example where this theorem applies is constructed.
