“…In other words, various types of nonlinearities can be seen as a particular case of
QC by selecting appropriate
MMs, such as nonlinearities satisfying monotone,
14 quadratic inequality,
16 incremental bounded sector conditions,
8,9,17 quadratic innerâbounded conditions,
11 Lipschitz conditions,
13,15 oneâsided Lipschitz conditions
10â12 and more. Recently, the investigation for systems satisfying
QC has yielded fruitful results
18â26 . In Reference
21, a technique for designing state observers for incrementally quadratic systems has been presented to address the problem of secure chaotic communication.…”
