Abstract
In this paper, we present a necessary and sufficient condition for globally asymptotic controllability of the general planar affine nonlinear systems with single-input. This result is obtained by introducing a new method in the analysis, which is based on the use of some basic results in planar topology and in the geometric theory of ordinary differential equations.
