Abstract
We study affine control systems on smooth manifolds and their complete lifts to the tangent bundle, providing an explicit geometric description of the solutions of the lifted system. We show that, although controllability of the complete lift implies controllability of the original system, the lifted system is never controllable due to intrinsic geometric constraints. By introducing chain controllability, we prove that controllability of the original system guarantees chain controllability of its complete lift.
