Bifurcation and normal form of nonlinear control systems, part I
The bifurcations of control systems with a single input are studied. Based on the normal forms of control systems, the equilibrium sets are classified. A set of quadratic invariants for control systems is found. Sufficient conditions for a system to be linearly controllable or stabilizable near a bifurcation point are given in terms of the quadratic invariants.
