Bodies of zero resistance and bodies invisible in one direction

Dynamical Systems 2015-05-13 v3

Abstract

We consider a body in a parallel flow of non-interacting particles. The interaction of particles with the body is perfectly elastic. We introduce the notions of a body of zero resistance, a body that leaves no trace, and an invisible body, and prove that all such bodies do exist.
