The classical inward pointing condition (IPC) for a control system whose state $x$ is constrained in the closure $C:=\bar\Omega$ of an open set $\Omega$ prescribes that at each point of the boundary $x\in \partial \Omega$ the intersection…

We will study the controllability problem of a bilinear control system on $\mathbb{R}^2:$ the main result is the characterization of the Lie algebra rank condition for the system. On the other hand, using elementary techniques, we recover…
Sufficient and necessary conditions are established for controllability of affine control systems where the control is constrained to a set whose convex hull contains the origin but is not necessarily, in contrast with previously known…
The question of open-loop control in the Gaussian regime may be cast by asking which Gaussian unitary transformations are reachable by turning on and off a given set of quadratic Hamiltonians. For compact groups, including finite…
We consider controllability for divergence-free systems that have a conserved quantity and satisfy a H\"ormander condition. It is shown that such systems are controllable, provided that the conserved quantity is a proper function. The proof…
We consider reachability in dynamical systems with discrete linear updates, but with fixed digital precision, i.e., such that values of the system are rounded at each step. Given a matrix $M \in \mathbb{Q}^{d \times d}$, an initial vector…
Positive linear systems on arbitrary time scales are studied. The theory developed in the paper unifies and extends concepts and results known for continuous-time and discrete-time systems. A necessary and sufficient condition for a linear…
We consider nonlinear scalar-input differential control systems in the vicinity of an equilibrium. When the linearized system at the equilibrium is controllable, the nonlinear system is smoothly small-time locally controllable, i.e.,…
A quantum control landscape is defined as the observable as a function(al) of the system control variables. Such landscapes were introduced to provide a basis to understand the increasing number of successful experiments controlling quantum…
A quantum system subject to external fields is said to be controllable if these fields can be adjusted to guide the state vector to a desired destination in the state space of the system. Fundamental results on controllability are reviewed…
This paper explicitly computes the unique control set $D$ with non-empty interior of a linear control system on $\mathbb{R}^2$, when the associated matrix has complex eigenvalues. It turns out that the closure of $D$ coincides with the the…
We study the controllability of a closed control-affine quantum system driven by two or more external fields. We provide a sufficient condition for controllability in terms of existence of conical intersections between eigenvalues of the…
This paper is devoted to the study of the null and approximate controllability for some classes of linear coupled parabolic systems with less controls than equations. More precisely, for a given bounded domain in R^N, we consider a system…
This paper addresses questions regarding controllability for `generic parameter' dynamical systems, i.e. the question whether a dynamical system is `structurally controllable'. Unlike conventional methods that deal with structural…
We consider the general bilinear control systems in three-dimensional Euclidean space which satisfy the LARC and have an open control set U; and give sufficient controllability conditions for corresponding projected systems on…
One version of the concept of structural controllability defined for single-input systems by Lin and subsequently generalized to multi-input systems by others, states that a parameterized matrix pair $(A, B)$ whose nonzero entries are…

In this note we prove a necessary set of conditions which must be satisfied by any controlled gate in the qubit Clifford Hierarchy. These conditions are straightforward to derive yet quite restricting. We also extend our proofs to gates…
