Semi-linear discrete-time control systems with periodic coefficients are considered. The problem of uniform global asymptotic stabilization of the zero equilibrium of the closedloop system by state feedback is studied. It is assumed that the free dynamic system has a Lyapunov stable zero equilibrium. The method for constructing a damping control is extended from time-invariant systems to time varying periodic semilinear discrete-time systems. By using this approach, sufficient conditions for uniform global asymptotic stabilization for those systems are obtained. Moreover, the converse Lyapunov Theorem on Lyapunov (non-asymptotic) stability is proved for complex and real linear periodic discrete-time systems. Finally, examples of using the obtained results are presented.
