Abstract

Stability of fractional-order nonlinear dynamic systems is studied using Lyapunov direct method with the introductions of Mittag-Leffler stability and generalized Mittag-Leffler stability notions. With the definitions of Mittag-Leffler stability and generalized Mittag-Leffler stability proposed, the decaying speed of the Lyapunov function can be more generally characterized which include the exponential stability and power-law stability as special cases. Finally, four worked out examples are provided to illustrate the concepts.
