contents This work addresses control problems governed by a semilinear evolution equation with singular memory kernel $κ(t)=αe^{-βt}\frac{t^{ν-1}}{Γ(ν)}$, where $α>0, β\ge 0$, and $0<ν<1$. We examine the existence of a mild solution and the approximate controllability of both linear and semilinear control systems. To this end, we introduce the concept of a resolvent family associated with the linear evolution equation with memory and develop some of its essential properties. Subsequently, we consider a linear-quadratic regulator problem to determine the optimal control that yields approximate controllability for the linear control system. Furthermore, we derive sufficient conditions for the existence of a mild solution and the approximate controllability of a semilinear system in a super-reflexive Banach space. Additionally, we present an approximate controllability result within the framework of a general Banach space. Finally, we apply our theoretical findings to investigate the approximate controllability of the heat equation with singular memory.
