Summary: In reality, due to network delays and system detection, the activation of candidate controllers frequently lags, causing issues with asynchronous switching between controllers and subsystems. This work proposes an asynchronous control technique based on the mode-dependent average dwell time (MDADT) for a class of discrete linear switching systems with time delay to keep the system stable while using asynchronous switching.

Summary: This article studies the contraction analysis of switched systems composed of contracting and noncontracting modes. It establishes the equivalence between the contraction of a switched system and the uniform global exponential stability of its variational system. Based on this equivalence, it provides sufficient conditions for a mode-dependent average dwell/leave-time based switching law to be contractive. Additionally, it derives linear matrix inequality (LMI) conditions to numerically validate the contraction property of nonlinear switched systems, including those with all noncontracting modes.

Summary: This paper introduces the concepts of Weighted Average Dwell Time (WADT) and Fast Weighted Average Dwell Time (FWADT) for continuous-time switched systems, and investigates their stability under a class of ergodic switching signals. The relationship between different ADT schemes and the WADT scheme is discussed, showing that classic schemes are included in the new one under certain conditions. The proposed switching law based on the (F)WADT scheme is more flexible and has a larger feasible region, and numerical examples are included to illustrate the validity and superiority of the developed techniques.

Summary: This paper proposes an AED-ADT approach for the asynchronous finite-time H-8 control of discrete-time switched linear systems. The construction of appropriate Lyapunov functions for asynchronous and synchronous switching is discussed. A sufficient condition for the finite-time boundedness of the closed-loop system with AED-ADT is provided, and a condition for finite-time H-8 control with prescribed H-8 performance is also developed. A numerical example is given to validate the theoretical results.

Summary: This paper investigates the fault detection and controller co-design problem for continuous-time nonlinear delayed switched systems based on mode-dependent average dwell time. The closed-loop control strategy is designed simultaneously using various techniques, including piecewise Lyapunov-Krasovskii function and H-infinity control.

Summary: This article investigates the state-feedback L1$$ {L}_1 $$ finite-time control problem for discrete-time switched positive linear systems with mode-dependent persistent dwell-time (MDPDT) switching. The MDPDT switching is more general than the common dwell-time and average dwell-time switching and can perfectly model a type of switched systems with hybrid slow and fast switching properties. The article adopts multiple linear copositive Lyapunov functions instead of traditional quadratic Lyapunov functions, and utilizes the linear programming approach to derive sufficient criteria of finite-time stability. The relationship between the lower bound of switching signals and parameters of the constructed controllers is successfully found, and a sufficient condition to ensure positive and L1$$ {L}_1 $$ finite-time boundedness of the closed-loop switched system is proposed. The efficiency of the conclusions is validated by two illustrative examples.

Summary: This paper addresses the event-triggered L-2 - L-infinity filtering problem for a class of switched linear parameter varying systems, proposing a new sampled delay-dependent and parameterised filtering error switched system. Results on exponential stability and prescribed L-2 - L-infinity performance are achieved by utilizing Lyapunov-Krasovskii functional and mode-dependent average dwell time method. The gains of the parameter-dependent filter with mismatched system mode are solved using linear matrix inequalities, with parallel results for the matched case also obtained.

Summary: The problem of discontinuity in excess demand functions in the general equilibrium with incomplete asset markets model can be resolved by introducing a new return matrix with constant rank, ensuring continuity within a subset of the price space. By restricting the price vector to this subset, standard homotopy path-following arguments can be employed to handle incomplete markets and provide a constructive proof for the generic existence of general equilibrium. A homotopy method can then be used for computing equilibria in the GEI model, with numerical experiments demonstrating its efficiency.

Summary: This paper presents a globally convergent differentiable path-following method for computing subgame perfect equilibria in robust stochastic games. By incorporating a logarithmic-barrier term and an extra variable, the method solves a convex optimization problem in each state and establishes a polynomial equilibrium system.

Summary: The linear tracing procedure is crucial in the equilibrium selection theory but fails to always select a perfect equilibrium when there are more than two players. To address this issue, we develop a variant of the linear tracing procedure by creating a perturbed game and establish the existence of a smooth path from a unique starting point to a perfect equilibrium using optimality conditions and transformations on variables. Additionally, we propose variant procedures to select a perfect equilibrium.
