In this paper we consider switched nonlinear systems under average dwell time
switching signals, with an otherwise arbitrary compact index set and with
additional constraints in the switchings. We present invariance principles for
these systems and derive by using observability-like notions some convergence
and asymptotic stability criteria. These results enable us to analyze the
stability of solutions of switched systems with both state-dependent
constrained switching and switching whose logic has memory, i.e., the active
subsystem only can switch to a prescribed subset of subsystems.
