ORDINARY DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

An ordinary differential equation is a mathematical model of acontinuous state continuous time system:

X = <n ´ state spacef: <n! <n ´ vector field (assigns a “velocity” vector to each x)

Given an initial value x0 2 X,an execution (solution in the sense of Caratheodory) overthe time interval [0,T) is a function x: [0,T) ! <n such that:

• x(0) = x0

• x is continuous and piecewise differentiable

•

ODE SOLUTION: WELL-POSEDNESS

Theorem [global existence and uniqueness non-blocking,deterministic, non-Zeno]If f: <n! <n is globally Lipschitz continuous, then 8 x0 thereexists a single solution with x(0)=x0 defined on [0,1).

The equilibrium point xe =0 is asymptotically stable if and onlyif for all matrices Q = QT positive definite (Q>0) the

ATP+PA = -Q

has a unique solution P=PT >0.

Lyapunov equation




ATP+PA = -Q


Remarks:Q positive definite (Q>0) iff xTQx >0 for all x 0Q positive semidefinite (Q¸ 0) iff xTQx ¸ 0 for all x andxT Q x = 0 for some x 0

• X = <n is the continuous state space

• f: Q£ X! <n is a set of vector fields on X

• Init µ Q£ X is a set of initial states

• Dom: Q! 2X assigns to each q2 Q a domain Dom(q) of X

• E µ Q£ Q is a set of transitions (edges)

• G: E! 2X is a set of guards (guard condition)

• R: E£ X! 2X is a set of reset maps

q = q1

HYBRID TRAJECTORY

A hybrid trajectory (, q, x) consists of:

• A hybrid time set = {Ii, i=0,1,…, M }• Two sequences of functions q = {qi(¢), i=0,1,…, M } and x =

{xi(¢), i=0,1,…, M } such that

qi: Ii! Q

xi: Ii! X

HYBRID AUTOMATA: EXECUTION

A hybrid trajectory (, q, x) is an execution (solution) of thehybrid automaton H = (Q,X,f,Init,Dom,E,G,R) if it satisfiesthe following conditions:

• Initial condition: (q0(0), x0(0)) 2 Init

• Continuous evolution:for all i such that i < i’

qi: Ii! Q is constantxi:Ii! X is the solution to the ODE associated with qi(i)xi(t) 2 Dom(qi(i)), t2 [i,i’)

• Discrete evolution:(qi(i’),qi+1(i+1)) 2 E transition is feasiblexi(i’) 2 G((qi(i’),qi+1(i+1))) guard condition satisfiedxi+1(i+1) 2 R((qi(i’),qi+1(i+1)),xi(i’)) reset condition satisfied

HYBRID AUTOMATA: EXECUTION

Well-posedness?

Problems due the hybrid nature:

for some initial state (q,x)• infinite execution of finite duration Zeno• no infinite execution blocking• multiple executions non-deterministic

We denote by

H(q,x) the set of (maximal) executions of H starting from (q,x)

H(q,x)1 the set of infinite executions of H starting from (q,x)

(q,0), then x(t) = 0 for all t2

Since V(q1,x(t)) is not increasing during [i,i’], then, when x(t)intersects the switching line at i’, it does at z with 2 (0,1],hence ||x(i+1)|| = ||x(i’)|| · ||x(i)||. Let q(i+1)=q2
