We show that a bilinear control system is approximately controllable if and only if it is controllable in $\mathbb{R}^{n}\setminus\{0\}$. We approach this problem by looking at the foliation made by the orbits of the system, and by showing…

We revisit the phenomenon of instability of solitons in the generalized Korteweg-de Vries equation, $u_t + \partial_x(u_{xx} + u^p) = 0$. It is known that solitons are unstable for nonlinearities $p \geq 5$, with the critical power $p=5$…
