Title: Contraction analysis of nonlinear dynamical systems -- a tutorial survey
Abstract: It has been more than a quarter century since a paper by Lohmiller and Slotine introduced contraction analysis to the nonlinear dynamics and control community, outlining the role of differential analysis using state-dependent Riemannian metrics and its many potential applications. Research in this domain is now extremely active, and we will review basics as well as some recent work in our group on applications to machine learning and to non-autonomous partial differential equations.
