Abstract
The linearization approach is widely known and can be used to analyze and understand the governing flows of many real-order nonlinear systems. In this paper, we provide a new method of linearization that gives useful tools for the local and/or global asymptotic stability analysis of many such nonlinear systems defined in the sense of Caputo derivative. The new results that concern order-dependent conditions based on comparison linearization theorems with the introduction of a new \(\mathcal {L_{\infty }}\) function are proposed. The implications of the introduced theoretical approach are illustrated to a nonlinear system when initial time is negative and to a positive initial-time real-order Lorenz system.
