Abstract
The model of plasma vertical instability in tokamak has been investigated. Fast, slow and hybrid magnetohydrodynamical instabilities have been studied. The models of passive, active, linear and nonlinear feedback have been studied. Several theorems, which are interesting from the physical point of view, have been proven.
