Lagrange stability

Lagrange stability is a concept in the stability theory of dynamical systems, named after Joseph-Louis Lagrange.

For any point in the state space,

in a real continuous dynamical system

is said to be positively Lagrange stable if the positive semi-orbit

is compact, then the motion is said to be negatively Lagrange stable.

is said to be Lagrange stable if it is both positively and negatively Lagrange stable.

If the state space

is the Euclidean space

, then the above definitions are equivalent to

A dynamical system is said to be positively-/negatively-/Lagrange stable if for each
