Abstract.  In this work, we study an approximate controllability problemwith constraint on the control. This problem appears naturally in the notion of discriminating sentinel with instantaneous observation. The main tool is a theorem of uniqueness of the solution of ill-posed Cauchy problem for the heat equation.
Keywords: Heat equation, Approximate Controllability, discriminating sentinels.
