Abstract

This paper presents converse Lyapunov theorems for exponential stability of nonautonomous discrete-time systems with disturbances and free of disturbances, respectively. It is shown that Lyapunov functions exist for discrete-time systems if the systems are exponentially stable. Moreover, in the periodic case, we explicitly construct a Lyapunov function for systems with disturbances.
