© 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. This paper focuses on using the first curvature κ(t) of trajectory to describe the stability of linear time-invariant system. We extend the results for two and three-dimensional systems (Wang, Sun, Song et al, arXiv:1808.00290) to n-dimensional systems. We prove that for a system (Formula presented.), (a) if there exists a measurable set whose Lebesgue measure is greater than zero, such that (Formula presented.) or (Formula presented.) does not exist for any initial value in this set, then the zero solution of the system is stable; (b) if the matrix A is invertible, and there exists a measurable set whose Lebesgue measure is greater than zero, such that (Formula presented.) for any initial value in this set, then the zero solution of the system is asymptotically stable.
