Abstract :
We consider the problem of approximately feedback linearizing a multi-input nonlinear system around the equilibrium manifold ¿ while making the error terms be of highest order on ¿. Necessary and sufficient conditions are given for approximately feedback linearizing the system around ¿ with error terms of order ¿ on ¿.
