Finite-Time and Fixed-Time Attractiveness for Nonlinear Impulsive Systems

Abstract

In this article, the finite-time and fixed-time attractiveness problems are investigated for nonlinear impulsive systems. The aim of the proposed problems is to establish some general Lyapunov theorems and settling-time estimates for finite-time and fixed-time attractiveness of nonlinear impulsive systems by analysis technics. Moreover, some comparisons with the existing results are also given. The classical finite-time and fixed-time convergence theorems for nonlinear impulse-free systems are well extended to nonlinear impulsive systems by our results. Furthermore, the existing results of finite-time and fixed-time attractiveness for nonlinear impulsive systems are well improved. Finally, some simulations are utilized to illustrate the usefulness of the theoretical analysis.
