Slotine Lectures On Nonlinear Systems

This document provides an overview of the Slotine Lectures on Nonlinear Systems. The lectures cover various topics in nonlinear systems and control theory over 20 sessions totaling over 30 hours. The lectures reference two main textbooks - Applied Nonlinear Control for lectures 1-13, and several journal articles for lectures 14-20 on contraction analysis. The lectures cover topics such as Lyapunov stability analysis, time-varying systems, sliding mode control, adaptive control, feedback linearization, and contraction analysis.
