Abstract
In a previous paper (nlin.CD/0107041) the following class of billiards was studied: For convex, sufficiently smooth, and vanishing at infinity, let the billiard table be defined by , the planar domain delimited by the positive -semiaxis, the positive -semiaxis, and the graph of . For a large class of we proved that the billiard map was hyperbolic. Furthermore we gave an example of a family of that makes this map ergodic. Here we extend the latter result to a much wider class of functions.
