Abstract

We deal with the approximate controllability for the nonlinear functional differential equation governed by the variational inequality in Hilbert spaces and present a general theorems under which previous results easily follow. The common research direction is to find conditions on the nonlinear term such that controllability is preserved under perturbation.
