Abstract :
Multi-stability and hysteresis are important systems properties in many applications, and particularly in biology. This paper studies such properties in the framework of monotone systems with well-defined steady-state responses. Characterizations of global stability behavior are stated in terms of easily checkable graphical conditions.
