A billiard is a dynamical system in which a particle alternates between motion in a straight line and specular reflection from a boundary. For billiards in non-convex areas bounded by segments of confocal quadrics are studied. The topology…
We provide sufficient conditions for a Banach space Y to be weakly sequentially complete. These conditions are expressed in terms of the existence of directional derivatives for cone convex mappings with values in Y .
We prove that the billiard claimed to be a possible counterexample to the Birkhoff-Poritsky conjecture is actually not a counterexample. We also show that for a billiard in a table obtained by the string construction over any convex…
A periodic trajectory on a polygonal billiard table is stable if it persists under any sufficiently small perturbation of the table. It is a standard result that a periodic trajectory on an $n$-gon gives rise in a natural way to a closed…
This paper is concerned with relationships of weakly mixing, topologically weakly mixing, and sensitivity for non-autonomous discrete systems. It is shown that weakly mixing implies topologically weakly mixing and sensitivity for measurable…
Closed billiard trajectories in a polygon in the hyperbolic plane can be coded by the order in which they hit the sides of the polygon. In this paper, we consider the average length of cyclically related closed billiard trajectories in…
A submanifold $M^m$ of a Euclidean space $R^{m+p}$ is said to have harmonic mean curvature vector field if $\Delta \vec{H}=0$, where $\vec{H}$ is the mean curvature vector field of $M\hookrightarrow R^{m+p}$ and $\Delta$ is the rough…
The dynamics in weakly chaotic Hamiltonian systems strongly depends on initial conditions and little can be affirmed about generic behaviors. Using two distinct Hamiltonian systems, namely one particle in an open rectangular billiard and…
We give an example of a weakly mixing vector field $b\in L^\infty([0,1],\text{BV}(\mathbb{T}^2))$ which is not strongly mixing. The example is based on a work of Chacon who constructed a weakly mixing automorphism which is not strongly…
We prove that if $\Phi:X\to Y$ a mapping of weak bounded length distortion from a quasiconvex and complete metric space $X$ to any metric space $Y$, then for any Lipschitz mapping $f:\mathbb{R}^k\supset E\to X$ we have that ${\mathcal…
In this paper we define and study the billiard problem on bounded regions on surfaces of constant curvature. We show that this problem defines a 2-dimensional conservative and reversible dynamical system, defined by a Twist diffeomorphism,…
The aim of this note is to give an effective criterion to verify whether a cubic polynomial over a non-Archimedean field has a weak N\'{e}ron model or not.
We consider billiard ball motion in a convex domain on a constant curvature surface influenced by the constant magnetic field. We examine the existence of integral of motion which is polynomial in velocities. We prove that if such an…
I construct normal del Pezzo surfaces, and regular weak del Pezzo surfaces as well, with positive irregularity q>0. Such things can happen only over nonperfect fields. The surfaces in question are twisted forms of nonnormal del Pezzo…
This paper concerns the problem of integrability of non closed distributions on Banach manifolds. We introduce the notion of weak distribution and we look for conditions under which these distributions admit weak integral submanifolds. We…
We present a general framework for weak convergence to decorated L\'evy processes in enriched spaces of c\`adl\`ag functions for vector-valued processes arising in deterministic systems. Applications include uniformly expanding maps and…
In this paper we study convex caustics in Minkowski billiards. We show that for the Euclidean billiard dynamics in a planar smooth centrally symmetric and strictly convex body $K$, for every convex caustic which $K$ possesses, the "dual"…
We consider weak solutions for a diffuse interface model of two non-Newtonian viscous, incompressible fluids of power-law type in the case of different densities in a bounded, sufficiently smooth domain. This leads to a coupled system of a…
We consider billiard ball motion in a convex domain of a constant curvature surface influenced by the constant magnetic field. We prove that if the billiard map is totally integrable then the boundary curve is necessarily a circle. This…
We consider special flows over the rotation by an irrational $\alpha$ under the roof functions of bounded variation without continuous, singular part in the Lebesgue decomposition and the sum of jumps $\neq 0$. We show that all such flows…
