Summary
This paper presents a simple rigorous development of two major results in robust stability theory: Kharitonov’s Theorem for interval polynomials (a previously known result); and a graphical U-stability Nyquist type test for a broad class of parameterized linear time-invariant systems. An example is included for a time delay system with non-linear parameter dependence.
