Abstract :
We study the reach control problem (RCP) for a single input affine system with a simplicial state space. We extend previous results by exploring arbitrary triangulations of the state space; particularly allowing the set of possible equilibria to intersect the interior of simplices. In the studied setting, it is shown that closed-loop equilibria, nevertheless, only arise on the boundary of simplices. This allows to define a notion of reach controllability which quantifies the effect of the control input on boundary equilibria. Using reach controllability we obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for solvability of RCP by affine feedback.
