KeYmaeraX is a Hoare-style theorem prover for hybrid systems. A hybrid system can be seen as an aggregation of both discrete and continuous variables, whose values can change abruptly or continuously, respectively. KeYmaeraX supports only variables having the primitive type bool or real. Due to the mixture of discrete and continuous system elements, one promising application area for KeYmaeraX are closed-loop control systems. A closed-loop control system consists of a plant and a controller. While the plant is basically an aggregation of continuous variables whose values change over time accordingly to physical laws, the controller can be seen as an algorithm formulated in a classical programming language. In this paper, we review some recent extensions of the proof calculus applied by KeYmaeraX that make formal proofs on the stability of dynamic systems more feasible. Based on an example, we first introduce to the topic and prove asymptotic stability of a given system in a hand-written mathematical style. This approach is then compared with a formal encoding of the problem and a formal proof established in KeYmaeraX. We also discuss open problems such as the formalization of asymptotic stability.
Keywords: cyber physical system, control theory, lyapunov function, imperative programming language.
