This paper deals with the exponential stabilizability of the class of stoch
astic systems with jumps. For the case of linear uncertain stochastic syste
m, we have designed an optimal control law that guarantees the exponential
stability robustness of systems with Markovian jumps. For the nonlinear cas
e with matching conditions, we have established a similar result. (C) 1999
