We introduce a new class of billiard-like system, ``bouncing outer billiards" which are 3-dimensional cousins of outer billiards of Neumann and Moser. We prove that bouncing outer billiard on a smooth convex body has at least four…
We prove convergence to a Levy process for a class of dispersing billiards with cusps. For such examples, convergence to a stable law was proved by Jung & Zhang. For the corresponding functional limit law, convergence is not possible in the…
The study of polygonal billiards, particularly those in the regular pentagon, has been the subject of two recent papers. One of these papers approaches the problem of discovering the periodic trajectories on the pentagon by identifying…
Hyperbolic geometry has recently found applications in social networks, machine learning and computational biology. With the increasing popularity, questions about the best representations of hyperbolic spaces arise, as each representation…
The problem of the quantizations of the $L$-shaped billiards and the like ones, i.e. each angle of which is equal to $\pi/2$ or $3\pi/2$, is considered using as a tool the Fourier series expansion method. The respective wave functions and…
We prove the results in [1] using Theorem 1 of the recent paper [2] by Crovisier and Yang. References: [1] Arbieto, A., Rojas, C., Santiago, B., Existence of attractors, homoclinic tangencies and singular-hyperbolicity for flows,…
A billiard in the form of a stadium with periodically perturbed boundary is considered. Two types of such billiards are studied: stadium with strong chaotic properties and a near-rectangle billiard. Phase portraits of such billiards are…
We consider polygonal billiards with collisions contracting the reflection angle towards the normal to the boundary of the table. In previous work, we proved that such billiards has a finite number of ergodic SRB measures supported on…
We introduce the concepts of rotation numbers and rotation vectors for billiard maps. Our approach is based on the birkhoff ergodic theorem. We anticipate that it will be useful, in particular, for the purpose of establishing the…
Dynamical billiards are paradigmatic examples of chaotic Hamiltonian dynamical systems with widespread applications in physics. We study how well their Lyapunov exponent, characterizing the chaotic dynamics, and its dependence on external…
In this article we introduce a hyperbolic metric on the (normalized) space of stability conditions on projective K3 surfaces $X$ with Picard rank $\rho (X) =1$. And we show that all walls are geodesic in the normalized space with respect to…
We consider the motion of a particle subjected to the constant gravitational field and scattered inelasticaly by hard boundaries which possess the shape of parabola, wedge, and hyperbola. The billiard itself performs oscillations. The…
Symmetric hyperbolic systems of equations are explicitly constructed for a general class of tensor fields by considering their structure as r-fold forms. The hyperbolizations depend on 2r-1 arbitrary timelike vectors. The importance of the…
This is a survey of higher-dimensional Kleinian groups, i.e., discrete isometry groups of the hyperbolic n-space for n greater than 3. Our main emphasis is on the topological and geometric aspects of higher-dimensional Kleinian groups and…
In this paper we study the ergodic properties of mathematical billiards describing the uniform motion of a point in a flat torus from which finitely many, pairwise disjoint, tubular neighborhoods of translated subtori (the so called…
In this work, we construct linearly stable periodic orbits in $3$-dimensional domains with boundaries containing focusing components (small pieces of a sphere) where we place these components arbitrarily far apart. It demonstrates that we…
Recently, the nodal domain counts of planar, integrable billiards with Dirichlet boundary conditions were shown to satisfy certain difference equations in [Ann. Phys. 351, 1-12 (2014)]. The exact solutions of these equations give the number…
The hyperbolic Lie algebras with symmetrizable Cartan matrix are classified, there are 142 of them some of which can be ``superized'' to an almost affine Lie superalgebra. We list all 97 pairs (a hyperbolic Lie algebra $H$, its superized…
Multidimensional model describing the cosmological evolution of n Einstein spaces in the theory with l scalar fields and forms is considered. When electro-magnetic composite p-brane ansatz is adopted, and certain restrictions on the…
We construct two-dimensional families of complex hyperbolic structures on disc orbibundles over the sphere with three cone points. This contrasts with the previously known examples of the same type, which are locally rigid. In particular,…
