We introduce a class of convex, higher-dimensional billiard models which generalise stadium billiards. These models correspond to the free motion of a point-particle in a region bounded by cylinders cut by planes. They are motivated by…

I announce a solution of the conjecture about the measure of periodic points for planar billiard tables. The theorem says that if $\Om\subset\R^2$ is a compact domain with piecewise $C^3$ boundary, then the set of periodic orbits for the…

We derive semiclassical contributions of periodic orbits from a boundary integral equation for three-dimensional billiard systems. We use an iterative method that keeps track of the composition of the stability matrix and the Maslov index…

In this paper we consider the coin billiard introduced by M. Bialy. It is a modification of the classical billiard, obtained as the return map of a nonsmooth geodesic flow on a cylinder that has homeomorphic copies of a classical billiard…

We generalize the following simple geometric fact: the only centrally symmetric convex curve of constant width is a circle. Billiard interpretation of the condition of constant width reads: a planar curve has constant width, if and only if,…

In this paper, we prove a Kastler-Kalau-Walze type theorem for 4-dimensional and 6-dimensional spin manifolds with boundary associated with the conformal Robertson-Walker metric. And we give two kinds of operator theoretic explanations of…

This paper extends the research on the self-consistent effective-one-body theory of a real spinless two-body system based on the post-Minkowskian approximation (Science China, 65, 100411, (2022)) to the case of a binary system for the…

The dynamics of cosmological billiards in $4=3+1$ spacetime dimensions is analyzed; the different statistical maps are characterized within the stochastic limit, reached after a large number of iterations of the billiard maps. New densities…

We examine the quantum mechanical eigensolutions of the two-dimensional infinite well or quantum billiard system consisting of a circular boundary with an infinite barrier or baffle along a radius. Because of the change in boundary…

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…

The relativistic approach to electroweak properties of two-particle composite systems developed in previous work is generalized here to the case of nonzero spin. This approach is based on the use of the instant form of relativistic…

Regularity of the Boltzmann equation, particularly in the presence of physical boundary conditions, heavily relies on the geometry of the boundaries. In the case of non-convex domains with specular reflection boundary conditions, the…

Berry's random wave conjecture posits that high energy eigenfunctions of chaotic systems resemble random monochromatic waves at the Planck scale. One important consequence is that, at the Planck scale around "many" points in the manifold,…
