Abstract

New stochastic averaging theorems are presented that relax the key limiting conditions in the existing stochastic averaging theory. First a notion of weak stability under random perturbation is introduced for general nonlinear systems that violate the equilibrium condition for the original system. This stability notion is a stability robustness property for a deterministic system, relative to perturbations involving a stochastic process, and in the presence of a small parameter. Then stability-like properties are studied for the original system by investigating the weak stability under the random perturbation of the equilibrium of the average system.
