The conditions are based on the ideas related to the well-known Pontryagin's maximum principle. That allows us to formulate the results in terms that are valid for continuous, discontinuous, stationary and time-dependent feedbacks.Optimization and ControlDynamical Systems93D15Pontryagin's principle of stabilizationtext
