Abstract

top
The importance of “control variations” for obtaining local approximations of the reachable set of nonlinear control systems is well known. Heuristically, if one can construct control variations in all possible directions, then the considered control system is small-time locally controllable (STLC). Two concepts of control variations of higher order are introduced for the case of smooth control systems. The relation between these variations and the small-time local controllability is studied and a new sufficient STLC condition is proved.* This work is partly supported by the Bulgarian Ministry of Science and Higher Education – National Fund for Science Research under contract DO 02–359/2008.
