We study billiard in the plane endowed with symmetric \$\mathbb{Z}^2\$-periodic obstacles of a right-angled polygonal shape. One of our main interests is the dependence of the diffusion rate of the billiard on the shape of the obstacle. We…

Anomalous dynamics in which local perturbations spread faster than diffusion are ubiquitously observed in the long-time behavior of a wide variety of systems. Here, the manner by which such systems evolve towards their asymptotic…
Level dynamics measurements have been performed in a Sinai microwave billiard as a function of a single length, as well as in rectangular billiards with randomly distributed disks as a function of the position of one disk. In the first case…
We investigate a L\'evy-Walk alternating between velocities $\pm v_0$ with opposite sign. The sojourn time probability distribution at large times is a power law lacking its mean or second moment. The first case corresponds to a ballistic…

Let $f: [0, +\infty) \to (0, +\infty)$ be a sufficiently smooth convex function, vanishing at infinity. Consider the planar domain $Q$ delimited by the positive $x$-semiaxis, the positive $y$-semiaxis, and the graph of $f$. Under certain…
The ensemble properties and time-averaged observables of a memory-induced diffusive-superdiffusive transition are studied. The model consists in a random walker whose transitions in a given direction depend on a weighted linear combination…
The unbounded diffusion observed for the standard mapping in a regime of high nonlinearity is suppressed by dissipation due to the violation of Liouville's theorem. The diffusion coefficient becomes important for the description of scaling…
One-dimensional billiard, i.e. a chain of colliding particles with equal masses, is well-known example of completely integrable system. Billiards with different particles are generically not integrable, but still exhibit divergence of a…
Breaking waves generate a distribution of bubble sizes that evolves over time. Knowledge of how this distribution evolves is of practical importance for maritime and climate studies. The analytical framework developed in Part 1 examined how…
Diffusivity in some soft matter and biological systems changes with time, called the fluctuating diffusivity. In this work, we propose a novel origin for fluctuating diffusivity based on stochastic simulations of binary gas mixtures. In…
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,…
There is no agreement in the literature on the rate of diffusion of a particle in a cooling granular gas. Predictions and model assumptions range from the conventional to very exotic dependence of the mean square distance (MSD) on time.…
Chaotic orbits of mushroom billiards display intermittent behaviors. We investigate statistical properties of this system by constructing an infinite partition on the chaotic part of a Poincar\'e surface which illustrates details of chaotic…
We consider normal velocity of smooth sets evolving by the $s-$fractional diffusion. We prove that for small time, the normal velocity of such sets is nearly proportional to the mean curvature of the boundary of the initial set for $s\in…
We investigate the transmission and reflection survival probabilities for the chaotic stadium billiard with two holes placed asymmetrically. Classically, these distributions are shown to have algebraic or exponential decays depending on the…
Dynamical focusing of ensembles of neutral particles in energy and configuration space has been demonstrated recently [C. Petri et al. 2010, Phys. Rev. E (R) {\bf 82}, 035204] using time-dependent elliptical billiards. The interplay of…
We study persistent random walk with time dependent velocity reversal probabilities and identify a criterion for a non-equilibrium dynamical transition. As a representative example, we consider a power law reversal probability $p(t)\sim…
