Abstract:
In this paper we study nonlinear control systems with multiple delays on
controls and states. To obtain asymptotic stability, we impose
Holder-type assumptions on the perturbing function, and show a
Gronwall-type inequality for difference equations with delay.
We prove that a nonlinear control system can be stabilized if its
linear control system can be stabilized. Some examples
are included in the last part of this paper.
