This book is an introduction to the theory of homogeneous systems, useful for the simplification of many types of nonlinear control problems. It propounds methods that can be employed when linearization proves unsuitable and provides a unified approach to stability and robustness analysis, control and observer design, and system discretization.
The second edition splits the coverage of homogeneity, allowing expanded coverage of finite-dimensional systems (in this book) and infinite-dimensional systems (in Volume II). The results are better systematized and easier for readers to study and assimilate.
The first volume details the concepts of finite-time and fixed-time stability. Key features of the book include:
- mathematical models of dynamical systems in finite-dimensional spaces;
- the theory of linear dilations in Euclidean spaces;
- homogeneous control and estimation;
- extensively expanded and original chapters with entirely new treatments of digitization, safety-critical systems, neural networks, and multiagent control;
- simple methods for an upgrade of existing linear control laws;
- numerical schemes for a consistent digital implementation of homogeneous algorithms; and
- experimental results that confirm an improvement of PID controllers.
Illustrative examples―numerical results, computer simulations, and real experiments―support all the theoretical material. The coverage of finite-dimensional systems presented in this book is of interest to graduate students of control theory from engineering and applied-mathematical backgrounds and to practising control engineers.

About the Author
Andrey Polyakov received his Ph.D. in Systems Analysis and Control from the Voronezh State University, Russia in 2005. Until 2010, he was an associate professor at the same university. In 2007 and 2008, he was also a research associate with the CINVESTAV-IPN center in Mexico City. From 2010 up to 2013, he was a leader researcher at the Institute of the Control Sciences, Russian Academy of Sciences. In 2013, he joined Inria, Lille, France, as a researcher. He has co-authored more than 100 papers in peer-reviewed journals and three books Attractive Ellipsoids in Robust Control, Road Map for Sliding Mode Control Design and Generalized Homogeneity in Systems and Control 1st Ed. His research interests include various aspects of nonlinear control and estimation theory such as finite-time/fixed-time control, generalized homogeneity, and Lyapunov methods for both finite-dimensional and infinite-dimensional systems.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Revaluation Books, Hounslow, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
