AbstractIn this paper the existence of Lyapunov functions for second-order differential inclusions is analyzed by using the methodology of the Viability Theory. A necessary assumption on the initial states and sufficient conditions for the existence of local and global Lyapunov functions are obtained. An application is also provided.
