We consider the 1D viscous Burgers equation with a control localised in a finite interval. It is proved that, for any $\varepsilon>0$, one can find a time $T$ of order $\log\varepsilon^{-1}$ such that any initial state can be steered to the…
We consider a quantum particle in a 1D interval submitted to a potential. The evolution of this particle is controlled using an external electric field. Taking into account the so-called polarizability term in the model (quadratic with…

We consider Schr{\"o}dinger equations with logarithmic nonlinearity and bilinear controls, posed on $\mathbb{T}^d$ or $\mathbb{R}^d$. We prove their small-time global $L^2$-approximate controllability. The proof consists in extending to…

We investigate the internal controllability of the wave equation with structural damping on the one dimensional torus. We assume that the control is acting on a moving point or on a moving small interval with a constant velocity. We prove…
This paper discusses the approximate controllability of a fractional differential control problem driven by a nonlinear hemivariational inequality in a Hilbert space. First, we prove the existence of a mild solution for a fractional control…
We consider controlled martingales with bounded steps where the controller is allowed at each step to choose the distribution of the next step, and where the goal is to hit a fixed ball at the origin at time $n$. We show that the algebraic…

We apply our idea, which previously we used in the analysis of the pure power NLS, consisting in spitting the virial inequality method into a large energy inequality combined with Kato smoothing, to the case of generalized Korteweg--De…
In this paper we prove an approximate controllability result for the bilinear Schr\"odinger equation. This result requires less restrictive non-resonance hypotheses on the spectrum of the uncontrolled Schr\"odinger operator than those…

The Korteweg-De Vries (KdV) equation is a paradigmatic model of integrable classical fields, admitting solitoning solutions. When many solitons are near to each other, their shapes are modified, and it is not manifest, from the KdV field,…
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…
We report on the experimental observation of solitons propagating along a torus of fluid. We show that such a periodic system leads to significant differences compared to the classical plane geometry. In particular, we highlight the…
