Abstract

We present Lyapunov stability and boundedness results for a class of discontinuous dynamical systems (DDS) determined by retarded functional differential equations and we apply these results in the analysis of a class of DDS determined by differential-difference equations (DDS with time delays). DDS of the type considered herein arise in the modeling of a variety of (infinite dimensional) systems, including certain classes of hybrid system, discrete event systems, switched system, intelligent control systems, systems subjected to impulse effects, and the like.
