This paper deals with linear control systems of a special form. The main go
al of the paper is to find the exact analytic solution of the time-optimal
control problem for an arbitrary linear control system with constant coeffi
cients using the analytic solution of this problem for the canonical system
. For this aim, we construct a certain nonsmooth mapping between the 0-cont
rollability sets of the given systems. In other words, by means of this map
ping, we investigate the equivalence of the systems with the same qualitati
ve behavior in a neighborhood of the stationary point.
