A classical parking function of length $n$ is a list of positive integers $(a_1, a_2, \ldots, a_n)$ whose nondecreasing rearrangement $b_1 \leq b_2 \leq \cdots \leq b_n$ satisfies $b_i \leq i$. The convex hull of all parking functions of…

In this century, a square-tiled translation surface (an origami) is intensively studied as an object with special properties of its translation structure and its $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$-orbit embedded in the moduli space. We generalize this…

We discuss the interplay between the piece-line regular and vertex-angle singular boundary effects, related to integrability and chaotic features in rational polygonal billiards. The approach to controversial issue of regular and irregular…

Any smooth surface in R^3 may be flattened along the z-axis, and the flattened surface becomes close to a billiard table in R^2 . We show that, under some hypotheses, the geodesic flow of this surface converges locally uniformly to the…

In this paper we investigate discretizations of AGD flows whose projective realizations are defined by intersecting different types of subspaces in $\RP^m$. These maps are natural candidates to generalize the pentagram map, itself defined…

For some class of geometric flows, we obtain the (logarithmic) Sobolev inequalities and their equivalence up to different factors directly and also obtain the long time non-collapsing and non-inflated properties, which generalize the…

In the present paper we introduce a new generating function for outer billiards in the plane. Using this generating function, we prove the following rigidity result: if the vicinity of the smooth convex plane curve $\gamma$ of positive…

We compute the complexity of the billiard language of the regular Euclidean $N$-gons (and other families of rational lattice polygons), answering a question posed by Cassaigne-Hubert-Troubetzkoy. Our key technical result is a counting…

In this paper, we show that billiard orbits in rational polygons and geodesics on translation surfaces exhibit super-fast spreading, an optimal time-quantitative majority property about the corresponding linear flow that implies uniformity…
