We consider a system of an arbitrary number of \textsc{1d} linear Schr\"odinger equations on a bounded interval with bilinear control. We prove global exact controllability in large time of these $N$ equations with a single control. This…

We study the boundary control problems for the wave, heat, and Schr\"odinger equations on a finite graph. We suppose that the graph is a tree (i.e., it does not contain cycles), and on each edge an equation is defined. The control is acting…

Quantum networks are often modelled using Schroedinger operators on metric graphs. To give meaning to such models one has to know how to interpret the boundary conditions which match the wave functions at the graph vertices. In this article…
