We identify all translation covers among triangular billiard surfaces. Our main tools are the holonomy field of Kenyon and Smillie and a geometric property of translation surfaces, which we call the fingerprint of a point, that is preserved…

The density of states for a chaotic billiard with randomly distributed point-like scatterers is calculated, doubly averaged over the positions of the impurities and the shape of the billiard. Truncating the billiard Hamiltonian to a N x N…
In this paper we establish a kind of bijection between the orbits of a polygonal outer billiards system and the orbits of a related (and simpler to analyze) system called the pinwheel map. One consequence of the result is that the outer…
We study resonant billiard trajectories within quadrics in the $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. We relate them to the theory of approximation, in particular the extremal rational functions on the systems of $d$ intervals on the real line.…
Ballistic transport through a collection of quantum billiards in undoped graphene is studied analytically within the conformal mapping technique. The billiards show pseudodiffusive behavior, with the conductance equal to that of a classical…
Negatively biased surface-gates allow electrostatic depletion of selected regions of a 2DEG, forming confined regions of specific geometry called billiards, in which ballistic transport occurs. At millikelvin temperatures, the electron…
We study the dielectric annular billiard as a quantum chaotic model of a micro-optical resonator. It differs from conventional billiards with hard-wall boundary conditions in that it is partially open and composed of two dielectric media…
Polygonal billiards exhibit a rich and complex dynamical behavior. In recent years polygonal billiards have attracted great attention due to their application in the understanding of anomalous transport, but also at the fundamental level,…
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…
Uniform hyperbolicity is a strong chaotic property which holds, in particular, for Sinai billiards. In this paper, we consider the case of a nonflat billiard, that is, a Riemannian manifold with boundary. Each trajectory follows the…
We study, by numerical simulations and semi-rigorous arguments, a two-parameter family of convex, two-dimensional billiard tables, generalizing the one-parameter class of oval billiards of Benettin--Strelcyn [Phys. Rev. A 17, 773 (1978)].…
The structure of the semiclassical trace formula can be used to construct a quasi-classical evolution operator whose spectrum has a one-to-one correspondence with the semiclassical quantum spectrum. We illustrate this for marginally…

Consider a periodic tiling of a plane by equal triangles obtained from the equilateral tiling by a linear transformation. We study a following tiling billiard: a ball follows straight segments and bounces of the boundaries of the tiles into…
The Sinai billiard map $T$ on the two-torus, i.e., the periodic Lorentz gaz, is a discontinuous map. Assuming finite horizon and another condition we introduce -- namely \emph{negligible singularities} -- we prove that the metric pressure…
