Abstract

A wide variety of systems in e.g. engineering or biological applications can be described or modelled by control systems (or controlled differential equations) of the general form \(\dot x = F\left( {x,u} \right)\) where the state a; is a point on a smooth manifold, the control u takes values in a compact interval or another manifold and is integrable as a function of time, and for each fixed value of u the vector field F(·,u) is smooth. One of the main topics in the investigation of such systems is the problem of understanding the local behaviour near an equilibrium point x0, or more generally near a reference trajectory.
