Abstract
Lyapunov functions are functions with negative derivative along solutions of a given ordinary differential equation. Moreover, sublevel sets of a Lyapunov function are subsets of the domain of attraction of the equilibrium. One of the numerical construction methods for Lyapunov functions uses meshless collocation with radial basis functions.Recently, this method was combined with a grid refinement algorithm (GRA) to reduce the number of collocation points needed to construct Lyapunov functions. However, depending on the choice of the initial set of collocation point, the algorithm can terminate, failing to compute a Lyapunov function. In this paper, we propose a modified grid refinement algorithm (MGRA), which overcomes these shortcomings by adding appropriate collocation points using a clustering algorithm. The modified algorithm is applied to two- and three-dimensional examples.
期刊介绍:
JCD is focused on the intersection of computation with deterministic and stochastic dynamics. The mission of the journal is to publish papers that explore new computational methods for analyzing dynamic problems or use novel dynamical methods to improve computation. The subject matter of JCD includes both fundamental mathematical contributions and applications to problems from science and engineering. A non-exhaustive list of topics includes * Computation of phase-space structures and bifurcations * Multi-time-scale methods * Structure-preserving integration * Nonlinear and stochastic model reduction * Set-valued numerical techniques * Network and distributed dynamics JCD includes both original research and survey papers that give a detailed and illuminating treatment of an important area of current interest. The editorial board of JCD consists of world-leading researchers from mathematics, engineering, and science, all of whom are experts in both computational methods and the theory of dynamical systems.
