We study a generalized three-dimensional stadium billiard and present strong numerical evidence that this system is completely chaotic. In this convex billiard chaos is generated by the defocusing mechanism. The construction of this…
We investigate the large scale chaotic, topological structure of the trajectories of an infinite sequence of dispersing, hence ergodic, $2D$ billiards with the configuration space $Q_n=\mathbb{T}^2 \setminus \bigcup_{i=0}^{n-1} D_i$, where…
We study finite two dimensional spin lattices with definite geometry (spin billiards) demonstrating the display of collective integrable or chaotic dynamics depending on their shape. We show that such systems can be quantum simulated by…
Close to a spacelike singularity, pure gravity and supergravity in four to eleven spacetime dimensions admit a cosmological billiard description based on hyperbolic Kac-Moody groups. We investigate the quantum cosmological billiards of…
We study quantum-mechanical tunneling between symmetry-related pairs of regular phase space regions that are separated by a chaotic layer. We consider the annular billiard, and use scattering theory to relate the splitting of…
We investigate the dynamics of no-slip billiards, a model in which small rotating disks may exchange linear and angular momentum at collisions with the boundary. We give new results on periodicity and boundedness of orbits which suggest…
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…
We investigate statistical properties of several classes of periodic billiard models which are diffusive. An introductory chapter gives motivation, and then a review of statistical properties of dynamical systems is given in chapter 2. In…
We present a study of the geodesic equations of a black hole space-time which is a solution of the three-dimensional NMG theory and is asymptotically Lifshitz with $z=3$ and $d=1$ as found in [Ayon-Beato E., Garbarz A., Giribet G. and…
We study the motion of classical particles confined in a two-dimensional "nuclear" billiard whose walls undergo periodic shape oscillations according to a fixed multipolarity. The presence of a coupling term in the single particle…
We construct turbulent black holes in asymptotically AdS_4 spacetime by numerically solving Einstein equations. Both the dual holographic fluid and bulk geometry display signatures of an inverse cascade with the bulk geometry being well…
The BTZ black hole is geometrically finite. This means that its three dimensional hyperbolic structure as encoded in its metric is in 1-1 correspondence with the Teichmuller space of its boundary, which is a two torus. The equivalence of…
We outline the covariant nature,with respect to the choice of a reference frame, of the chaos characterizing the generic cosmological solution near the initial singularity, i.e. the so-called inhomogeneous Mixmaster model. Our analysis is…
The now-famous Majumdar-Papapetrou exact solution of the Einstein-Maxwell equations describes, in general, $N$ static, maximally charged black holes balanced under mutual gravitational and electrostatic interaction. When $N=2$, this…
In this work, we study a family of fully chaotic billiards that exhibits only rotational symmetries, whose geometry is based on the $C_3$ symmetry system proposed by Leyvraz, Schmit, and Seligman~(LSS) in 1996. Quantum spectral analyses are…
There are numerous physical situations in which a hole or leak is introduced in an otherwise closed chaotic system. The leak can have a natural origin, it can mimic measurement devices, and it can also be used to reveal dynamical properties…
We study the deep interplay between geometry of quadrics in d-dimensional space and the dynamics of related integrable billiard systems. Various generalizations of Poncelet theorem are reviewed. The corresponding analytic conditions of…

In this paper, we study an asymptotically flat black hole spacetime with weakly nonminimally coupled monopole charge. We analytically and numerically investigate light ray propagation around such a black hole by employing the common…
The old suggestive observation that black holes often resemble lumps of fluid has recently been taken beyond the level of an analogy to a precise duality. We investigate aspects of this duality, and in particular clarify the relation…
