Abstract
We consider control systems for which we know two stabilizing controllers. One is globally asymptotically stabilizing, the other one is only locally a symptotically stabilizing but for some reason we insist on using it in a ne ighborhood of the origin. We look for a uniting control law being equal to the local feedback on a neighborhood of the origin, equal to the global one outside of a larger neighborhood and being a globally stabilizing controll er. We study several solutions based on continuous, discontinuous, hybrid, time-varying controllers. One criterion of the selection of a controller is the robustness of the stability to vanishing noise. This leads us in parti cular to consider a kind of generalization of Krasovskii trajectories for h ybrid systems.
