A Shortest-Path Lyapunov Approach for Forward Decision Processes by Julio B. Clempner

“…The trajectory over the net is calculated forward using a discrete Lyapunov-like function, considered as a distance function. Because a Lyapunov-like function is a solution to a difference equation, it is constructed to respect the constraints imposed by the system (a Euclidean metric does not consider these factors). …”

SLAF marker based QTL mapping of fruit-related traits reveals a major-effect candidate locus ff2.1 for flesh firmness in melon by Ke-xin CHEN, Dong-yang DAI, Ling WANG, Li-min YANG, Dan-dan LI, Chao WANG, Peng JI, Yun-yan SHENG

“…Using 429 F2 individuals derived from a cross between P5 and P10, we refined the ff2.1 locus to a 28.3-kb region harboring three functional genes. These results provide not only a new candidate QTL for melon FF breeding but also a theoretical foundation for research on the mechanism underlying melon gene function.…”

Design of Arbitrary Time Convergence Controller for n-th Order System by Nianhao Xie, Kebo Li, Wenshan Su, Lei Chen

“…Herein, the arbitrary time convergence controller is improved, the unified formula for n-th order system is given, and a more accurate control parameter range is obtained. By constructing an ingenious auxiliary function and a novel Lyapunov function, the arbitrary time convergence of the n-th order controller is proved, and the reasonable parameter selection range is obtained using the integrator backstepping and the mathematical induction method. …”
