description

We study two singular systems in R3. The first one is affine in control and we achieve weighted blowings-up to prove that singular trajectories exist and that they are not locally time optimal. The second one is linear in control. The characteristic vector field in sub-Riemannian geometry is generically singular at isolated points in dimension 3. We define a case with symmetries, which we call flat, and we parametrize the sub-Riemannian sphere. This sphere is subanalytic.
