ON THE ASYMPTOTIC STABILITY OF SYSTEMS WITH IMPULSES BY THE DIRECT METHOD OF LYAPUNOV

In this paper the asymptotic and globally asymptotic stability of the zero solution of systems with impulses is investigated. For this purpose piecewise continuous auxiliary functions are used which are an analogue to Lyapunov's functions. The theorem of Marachkov on the asymptotic stability of systems without impulses is generalized. The results obtained are formulated in four theorems.
