  • Abstract
    Examples of linear control systems with fast time-varying uncertain coefficients are given, which can be stabilized by a nonlinear memoryless state feedback, but cannot be stabilized by a linear time-invariant dynamic state feedback. By means of one of these examples the authors show that the closed loop quadratic stability margin may be infinitely smaller than the actual stability margin
