An ISS small gain theorem for general networks

TLDR
A generalized version of the nonlinear small gain theorem is provided for the case of more than two coupled input-to-state stable systems and an associated lower-dimensional discrete time dynamical system.
Abstract
We provide a generalized version of the nonlinear small gain theorem for the case of more than two coupled input-to-state stable systems. For this result the interconnection gains are described in a nonlinear gain matrix, and the small gain condition requires bounds on the image of this gain matrix. The condition may be interpreted as a nonlinear generalization of the requirement that the spectral radius of the gain matrix is less than 1. We give some interpretations of the condition in special cases covering two subsystems, linear gains, linear systems and an associated lower-dimensional discrete time dynamical system.

Input-to-State Stability of Nonlinear Impulsive Systems

TL;DR: It is proved that impulsive systems, which possess an input-to-state stable (ISS) Lyapunov function, are ISS for time sequences satisfying the fixed dwell-time condition and two small-gain theorems are proved that provide a construction of an ISS Lyap unov function for an interconnection of impulsive Systems if the ISS LyAPunov functions for subsystems are known.

Plug-and-Play Decentralized Model Predictive Control for Linear Systems

TL;DR: This work considers a linear system structured into physically coupled subsystems and proposes a decentralized control scheme capable to guarantee asymptotic stability and satisfaction of constraints on system inputs and states and shows how to automatize the design of local controllers.
