N2 - The article revisits Aizerman and Kalman conjectures for absolute stability through the lens of a novel graphical interpretation. Even though these conjectures are false in the general case, such a graphical interpretation suggests natural ways to introduce additional conditions in order to obtain valid absolute stability criteria. As an illustration, the article proves a new absolute stability criterion obtained by the iterative application of a variation of the circle criterion.
