Abstract
This note proposes an extension of LaSalle's invariance principle for nonlinear discrete autonomous dynamical systems. The invariance principle is extended to allow the first difference of the auxiliar scalar function (usually a Lyapunov function) to be positive in some bounded regions. Moreover, a uniform version is proposed to deal with nonlinear discrete dynamical systems that vary with parameters. Both extensions have the original invariance principle as a particular case. As a consequence, a larger class of systems can be treated with this new theory. The extensions are very useful to obtain attractor estimates as well as their corresponding stability regions. The uniform version, in particular, is useful to obtain estimates that are uniform regarding parameters
