Abstract: Exact controllability is proved on a graph with cycle. The controls can be a mix of controls applied at the boundary and interior vertices. The method of proof first uses a dynamical argument to prove shape controllability and velocity controllability, thereby solving their associated moment problems. This enables one to solve the moment problem associated with exact controllability. In the case of a single control, either boundary or interior, it is shown that exact controllability fails.

Keywords: control problems, dynamical method, Volterra integral equations.
