| Abstract: | Universal stabilizers are presented for two classes of nonlinear systems, linear in their multiple control inputs: (I) a class of pth order controlled differential inclusions on R″ with full state available for feedback, and (II) a class of nonlinearly perturbed linear systems with restricted state availability. The stabilizers are of a discontinuous feedback form (embedded in a set-valued map), and incorporate adaptive matrix-valued gain functions which exploit the existence of finite spectrum-unmixing sets associated with the systems under consideration. The analysis draws on an extension, to differential inclusions, of LaSalle's invariance principle for ordinary differential equations. |
