This note studies the global controllability of a general nonlinear system by extending it to affine one. The state space of the obtained affine system admits a nature foliation, each leaf of which is diffeomorphic to the state space of the…

In this paper we investigate a relaxed concept of controllability, known in the literature as herdability, namely the capability of a system to be driven towards the(interior of the) positive orthant. Specifically, we investigate…
We investigate the universality of multi-spin systems in architectures of various symmetries of coupling type and topology. Explicit reachability sets under symmetry constraints are provided. Thus for a given (possibly symmetric)…

In this paper, we study the concept of approximate controllability of retarded network systems of neutral type. On one hand, we reformulate such systems as free-delay boundary control systems on product spaces. On the other hand, we use the…
