  • Abstract
    We provide a small-gain theorem for feedback interconnections of monotone input-output systems with multi-valued input-state characteristics. This extends a small-gain theorem of Angeli and Sontag for monotone systems with singleton-valued characteristics. We prove our theorem using Thieme´s convergence theory for asymptotically autonomous systems. We also provide an illustrative example.
