Abstract:

We derive a method for the computation of robust domains of attraction based on a recent generalization of Zubov's theorem on representing robust domains of attraction for perturbed systems via the viscosity solution of a suitable partial differential equation (available here). While a direct discretization of the equation leads to numerical difficulties due to a singularity at the stable equilibrium, a suitable regularization enables us to apply a standard discretization technique for Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations. We present the resulting fully discrete scheme and show a numerical example.
