  • Abstract
    A sufficient condition for the existence of a common Lyapunov function for two stable linear second order systems x=Aix, A i∈{Al, A2} is presented, namely that the matrix pencil A1+γA2 have distinct negative eigenvalues for all γ∈(0,∞). The implications of this result for the stability of more general switching systems are briefly discussed
