In this article, we study the exact controllability of an abstract model described by the controlled generalized Hammerstein type integral equation x(t) = Due to image rights restrictions, multiple line equation(s) cannot be graphically displayed. h(t, s)u(s)ds + Due to image rights restrictions, multiple line equation(s) cannot be graphically displayed. k(t, s, x)f(s, x(s))ds, 0 ≤ t ≤ T < ∞, where, the state x(t) lies in a Hilbert space H and control u(t) lies another Hilbert space V for each time t ∈ I = [0, T], T > 0. We establish the controllability result under suitable assumptions on h, k and f using the monotone operator theory. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
