Computation of piecewise quadratic Lyapunov functions for hybrid systems

This paper presents a computational approach to stability analysis of nonlinear and hybrid systems. The search for a piecewise quadratic Lyapunov function is formulated as a convex optimization problem in terms of linear matrix inequalities. Several examples are included to demonstrate the flexibility and power of the approach.
