This short note is devoted to a discussion of a general approach to controllability of PDE’s introduced by Agrachev and Sarychev in 2005. We use the example of a 1D Burgers equation to illustrate the main ideas. It is proved that the problem in question is controllable in an appropriate sense by a two-dimensional external force. This result is not new and was proved earlier in the papers [AS05, AS07] in a more complicated situation of 2D Navier–Stokes equations.
Keywords: Burgers equation, approximate controllability, exact controllability in projection, Agrachev–Sarychev method
