In a companion paper (Nonlinear Impulsive Dynamical Systems. Part I: Stabil
ity and Dissipativity) Lyapunov and invariant set stability theorems and di
ssipativity theory were developed for non-linear impulsive dynamical system
s. In this paper we build on these results to develop general stability cri
teria for feedback interconnections of non-linear impulsive systems. In add
ition, a unified framework for hybrid feedback optimal and inverse optimal
control involving a hybrid non-linear-non-quadratic performance functional
is developed. It is shown that the hybrid cost functional can be evaluated
in closed-form as long as the cost functional considered is related in a sp
ecific way to an underlying Lyapunov function that guarantees asymptotic st
ability of the non-linear closed-loop impulsive system. Furthermore, the Ly
apunov function is shown to be a solution of a steady-state, hybrid Hamilto
n-Jacobi-Bellman equation.
