Floquet Stability Analysis of Memory Difference Control — •David Conal Higgins and Jens Christian Claussen — Institut für Neuro- und Bioinformatik, Universität zu Lübeck

A time discrete version of Pyragas control [1], difference control, was introduced by Bielawski, Derozier and Glorieux [2] and acts in the Poincaré section. It allows stabilization of orbits with Ljapunov number between -3 and -1. Outside of this range, the scheme can be extended by an additional term (MDC, memory difference control) as introduced in [3]. In general, Poincaré-based control schemes may show limitations in the length of the control impulse, which is relevant in the case of difference control [4]. The stability can be analyzed by Floquet theory, giving rise to a special class of delay differential equations. Here we analyze the stability properties of MDC by means of a Floquet stability analysis.
