  • Abstract
    A class of natural Lyapunov functions of the form \\Sigma \\lambda _{i} |x_{i}|, \\lambda _{i} > 0 , is considered for the stability analysis of a general class of nonautonomous differential equations associated with many physical systems. It is shown that recent results on the existence of solutions to a class of linear inequalities directly yield necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of a Lyapunov function of the form described.
