Description
The main purpose of developing stability theory is to examine dynamic responses of a system to disturbances as the time approaches infinity.
It has been and still is the object of intense investigations due to its intrinsic interest and its relevance to all practical systems
in engineering, finance, natural science and social science. This monograph provides some state-of-the-art expositions of major advances
in fundamental stability theories and methods for dynamic systems of ODE and DDE types and in limit cycle, normal form and Hopf bifurcation
control of nonlinear dynamic systems.
