We consider control systems governed by nonlinear O.D.E.'s that are affine in the time-derivative du/dt of the control u. The latter is allowed to be an integrable, possibly of unbounded variation function, which gives the system an…
The paper is concerned with a scalar balance law, where the source term depends on a control function $\alpha(t)$. Given a control $\alpha\in \mathbf{L}^\infty\bigl([0,T]\bigr)$, it is proved that, for generic initial data $\bar u \in…
