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 problem of local null controllability for the control-affine nonlinear systems $\dot x(t)=f(x(t))+Bu(t)+w(t),$ $t\in[0,T]$ is considered in this paper. The principal requirements on the system are that the LTI pair $\left((\partial…

Let $X$ be a graph on $v$ vertices with adjacency matrix $A$, and let let $S$ be a subset of its vertices with characteristic vector $z$. We say that the pair $(X,S)$ is controllable if the vectors $A^rz$ for $r=1,\ldots,v-1$ span…
