Lions, Jacques-Louis Contrôlabilité exacte des systèmes distribués. (Exact controllability of distributed systems). (French) Zbl 0589.49022 C. R. Acad. Sci., Paris, Sér. I 302, 471-475 (1986). The author presents a general method for the study of the exact controllability problem for linear evolution systems. The initial and boundary conditions are general. Emphasis is laid on the cases when the control acts on the whole boundary, on a part of the boundary or is pointwise.
