The problems of admissible finite-time stability (AFTS) and admissible finite-time stabilization for a class of uncertain discrete singular systems are addressed in this study. The definition of AFTS is first given. Second, a sufficient condition for the AFTS of the nominal unforced system is established, which is further extended to the uncertain case. Then, a sufficient condition is proposed for the design of a state feedback controller such that the closed-loop system is admissibly finite-time stable for all admissible uncertainties. Both the AFTS and the controller design conditions are presented in terms of linear matrix inequalities (LMIs) with a fixed parameter. Finally, two numerical examples are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the developed theory.
