A Formal Proof in Coq of LaSalle’s Invariance Principle

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNTCS,volume 10499))

Abstract

Stability analysis of dynamical systems plays an important role in the study of control techniques. LaSalle’s invariance principle is a result about the asymptotic stability of the solutions to a nonlinear system of differential equations and several extensions of this principle have been designed to fit different particular kinds of system. In this paper we present a formalization, in the Coq proof assistant, of a slightly improved version of the original principle. This is a step towards a formal verification of dynamical systems.
