Abstract

Motivated by developments on differential Lyapunov functions for contraction analysis in Forni, Sepulchre (2012) we propose a definition of differential passivity, based on the geometric framework of the prolongation of a nonlinear system in Crouch, van der Schaft (1987). We explore the ramifications of this definition and its potential uses.
