We consider an $n$ dimensional dynamical system with discontinuous right-hand side (DRHS), whereby the vector field changes discontinuously across a co-dimension 1 hyperplane $S$. We assume that this DRHS system has an asymptotically stable periodic orbit $γ$, not fully lying in $S$. In this paper, we prove that also a regularization of the given system has a unique, asymptotically stable, periodic orbit, converging to $γ$ as the regularization parameter goes to $0$.

Keywords: Piecewise smooth vector fields, regularization, limit cycle, monodromy matrix, asymptotic stability.
