Abstract

An effective method for analyzing the stability of nonlinear systems is developed. After introducing a novel concept named the point-wise generalized Dahlquist constant for any mapping and presenting its useful properties, we show that the point-wise generalized Dahlquist constant is sufficient for characterizing the exponential stability of nonlinear systems.
