Abstract
The analysis of discontinuous dynamic systems has attracted a considerable research interest in the last decades. Although the existing literature on this subject includes numerous books and papers such as [30, 52, 77, 108, 126, 132, 139, 212, 227], to name a few, these systems are far from being fully understood. In the present chapter, the analysis tools of such systems are developed within the framework of the second Lyapunov method with a focus on the use of nonsmooth Lyapunov functions, possessing non-positive time derivatives along the system trajectories.
