abstract={We propose a computational method for local robust performance analysis of nonlinear systems with polynomial dynamics. Specifically, we characterize upper bounds for local L 2 rarr L 2 input-output gains using polynomial Lyapunov storage functions satisfying certain dissipation inequalities and compute safe approximations for these upper bounds via sum-of-squares programming problems. We consider both bounded parametric uncertainties and bounded uncertainties due to unmodeled dynamics.},
