The problem of the estimation of the domain of attraction for Impulsive Dynamical Systems (IDSs) is tackled in this paper. IDSs are a special class of hybrid systems that exhibit jumps in the state trajectory, which can be either time-driven (time-dependent IDSs), or driven by specific state values (state-dependent IDSs). Sufficient conditions to determine whether a polytope belongs to the domain of attraction of the zero equilibrium point are provided for both time-dependent and state-dependent IDS, when a nonlinear quadratic continuoustime dynamic is considered. The proposed results are stated in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities problems. The effectiveness of the proposed results is shown by means of the analysis of a biological model for tumor progression.

Abstract
The problem of the estimation of the domain of attraction for Impulsive Dynamical Systems (IDSs) is tackled in this paper. IDSs are a special class of hybrid systems that exhibit jumps in the state trajectory, which can be either time-driven (time-dependent IDSs), or driven by specific state values (state-dependent IDSs). Sufficient conditions to determine whether a polytope belongs to the domain of attraction of the zero equilibrium point are provided for both time-dependent and state-dependent IDS, when a nonlinear quadratic continuoustime dynamic is considered. The proposed results are stated in terms of Linear Matrix Inequalities problems. The effectiveness of the proposed results is shown by means of the analysis of a biological model for tumor progression.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
