Weak condition for the existence of control sets with a nonempty interior of linear control systems on nilpotent groups

In this paper, we show that for a linear control system on a nilpotent Lie group, the Lie algebra rank condition is enough to assure the existence of a control set with a nonempty interior, as soon as the set of singularities of the drift is compact. Moreover, this control set is unique and contains the singularities of the drift in its closure.
