  1. If this second condition holds for all \(r>0\), then \(0\in {\mathbb {R}}^n\) is said to be globally P-L stable for \(\dot{x}=X(t,\,x).\)

Contributions

The first author presented the problem with the analysis of theoretical results and the illustration of the main results by examples from control theory (Examples 3, 4 and 5). The third author presented some criticisms of some proofs by improving their quality. His intervention is again based on reasonable hypotheses in the Examples 3 and 4; while the second author, is responsible for presenting some examples of control systems (Examples 1 and 2 and the last Example in Section 4.1) and participates in the bibliography and the writing of the article.
