abstract = {The paper contains a consistent presentation of the approach developed by the authors to analysis of nonlinear control systems, which exploits ideas and techniques of formal power series of independent noncommuting variables and the corresponding free algebras. The main part of the paper was conceived with a view of comparing our results with the results obtained by use of the differential-geometric approach. We consider control-linear systems with m controls. In a free associative algebra with m generators (which can be thought of as a free algebra of iterated integrals), a control system uniquely defines two special objects: the core Lie subalgebra and the graded left ideal.
