Abstract

This paper examines the asymptotic stability of dynamical systems that are driven by L´evy processes. A Le´vy process is a stochastic process with stationary and independent increments. It includes both Wiener and Poisson jump processes and is suitable for simulta- neous modelling of small and large fluctuations in a system. In this paper, sufficient conditions for the asymptotic stability of the process’ sample paths are derived based on Lyapunov-like techniques. In particular, both the linear and non-linear representations of the process are investigated in the presented stability analyses.
