Invariant measures and controllability of finite systems on compact manifolds
A control system is said to be finite if the Lie algebra generated by its vector fields is finite dimensional. Sufficient conditions for such a system on a compact manifold to be controllable are stated in terms of its Lie algebra. The proofs make use of the equivalence theorem of [Ph. Jouan, ESAIM: COCV 16 (2010) 956–973]. and of the existence of an invariant measure on certain compact homogeneous spaces.
