Abstract
Sufficient conditions for the global controllability of nonlinear
Volterra integrodifferential systems with prescribed controls are derived.
The method is a transformation of the given control system into a
boundary value problem and then the result is obtained by the
application of the Schaefer fixed point theorem.
