Lyapunov's central limit theorem
In probability theory, Lyapunov's central limit theorem is one of the variants of the central limit theorems. It states that if for each positive integer N we have a sequence of independent, 0 random variables with finite means and variances [X_, X_, \ldots, X_] with [\operatornam..

Lyapunov equation
In control theory, the discrete Lyapunov equation is of the form [A X A^H - X + Q = 0] where [Q] is a hermitian matrix. The continuous Lyapunov equation is of form [AX + XA^H + Q = 0]. The Lyapunov equation occurs in many branches of control theory, such as stability ..

Lyapunov function
In the theory of dynamical systems, and control theory, Lyapunov functions, named after Aleksandr Mikhailovich Lyapunov, are a family of functions that can be used to demonstrate the stability or instability of some state points of a system. The demonstration of stability or instability requires f..
Lyapunov stability
In mathematics, the notion of Lyapunov stability occurs in the study dynamical systems. In simple terms, if all points that start out near a point x stay near x forever, then x is Lyapunov stable. More strongly, if all points that start out near x converge to x, then x is asymptotically stable. The..
Lyapunov theory
Lyapunov theory is a collection of results regarding stability of dynamical systems, named after a Russian mathematician Aleksandr Mikhailovich Lyapunov. The primary result of the theory is the concept of Lyapunov stability. ..
Lyapunov time
In mathematics, the Lyapunov time is the length of time for a dynamical system to become chaotic. The Lyapunov time reflects the limits of the predictability of the system. By convention, it is measured as the time for nearby trajectories of the system to diverge by e. It is named after Aleksandr ..
