Abstract:
The method for decomposition of the vector field of a dynamical system based on construction of homotopy operator is proposed. The vector fields of dynamical systems can be classified on the basis of SVD-decomposition of potential components of the vector field. The method of decomposition of dynamical system vector field is used to construct Lyapunov functions for control systems.
Keywords:vector field decomposition, control system, Lyapunov function, Hodge–Helmholtz decomposition, operator of homotopy.
