Abstract

We consider Lyapunov stability of switched linear systems whose switching signal is constrained to a subset of indices. We propose a switching rule that chooses the most stable subsystem among those belonging to the subset. This rule is based on an ordering of the subsystems using a common Lyapunov function. We develop randomized algorithms for finding the ordering as well as for finding a subset of systems for which a common Lyapunov function exists. We show that the class of Las Vegas randomized algorithms is useful in the design.
