The bad thing about this page is that it doesn't really say. It gives a very precise definition of a "Lyapunov candidate function" and says a lot about Lyapunov candidate functions, but it doesn't bother to define a Lyapunov function, except in a sketchy way near the start. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:John Baez|John Baez]] ([[User talk:John Baez|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/John Baez|contribs]]) 00:40, 29 December 2013 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
Well it looks like it's defined now, but I'm not sure I trust it... -Sam Winnick

== Definition ==
I’d say this definition is wrong: strictly positive and locally positive definite are completely different. The function <math>-\nabla{V}\cdot g</math> is not strictly positive. In particular it is zero when g is zero. <!-- Template:Unsigned IP --><small class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[Special:Contributions/82.35.206.78|82.35.206.78]] ([[User talk:82.35.206.78#top|talk]]) 05:26, 24 February 2021 (UTC)</small> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->
I think that http://mathworld.wolfram.com/LyapunovFunction.html gives a much better definition than the one provided by http://planetmath.org/?op=getobj&from=objects&id=4386 . The planetmath definition does not specifiy that V is a ''scalar'' function, and it uses an example in only two independent variables (x,y) when in general V is a function in n variables. Also it is proving instability when the much more common utility of a Lyapunov function is to prove stability. I would say that the planetmath "definition" is really more of an example than a definition.

2. V'(x)<0 means that systems energy converges [around some area defined by x] ->(locally) asymptotically converges to stable equilibrium point

== Added text needs to be better formatted and integrated into article ==
{{ping|Salih Ertan}} you added the following section to this article but didn't format it very well. Adding a "CORRECTION" in the middle of an article does not fit with the encyclopedic nature of Wikipedia. Please also look at [[WP:CITE]] to learn how to format citations.
The reverted text is copied here:
{{quote|CORRECTION: Depending on formulation type, a systematic method to construct Lyapunov functions for ordinary differential equations using their most general form in autonomous cases was given in 'Civelek, C. (2018). Archives of Control Sciences, volume 28 (LXIV), No. 2, pages 201–222 Doi:10.24425/1234562' though ... According to a lot of applied mathematicians, for a dissipative gyroscopic system a Lyapunov function could not be constructed. However, using the method expressed in the publication above, even for such a system a Lyapunov function could be constructed as given in 'Civelek, C.; Cihanbegendi, Ö. (2020).
