Description
We study bifurcations of control-affine systems in the plane.
We classify all generic 1-parameter
bifurcations of control systems, more precisely, topological bifurcations
of
invariants of usual feedback equivalence. Such bifurcations form six
different classes: two bifurcations of equilibrium sets, two
bifurcations of critical sets and two bifurcations of pairs of
invariants. We also classify all generic 1-parameter families of
control-affine systems.
