We discuss scaling methods
which can be used to solve low mode control problems for nonlinear
partial differential equations. These methods lead naturally to a
infinite-dimensional generalization of the notion of saturation,
originally due to Jurdjevic and Kupka in the finite-dimensional setting
of ODEs. The methods will be highlighted by applying them to specific
equations, including reaction-diffusion equations, the 2d/3d
Euler/Navier-Stokes equations and the 2d Boussinesq equations.
Applications to support properties of the laws solving randomly-forced
versions of each of these equations will be noted.
