In this paper, we show that two-dimensional billiards with point interactions inside exhibit a chaotic nature in the microscopic world, although their classical counterpart is non-chaotic. After deriving the transition matrix of the system…
This paper studies an optimal control problem governed by a semilinear elliptic equation, in which the control acts in a multiplicative or bilinear way as the reaction coefficient of the equation. We focus on the numerical discretization of…
The eigenvalues of the Hyperspherical billiard are calculated in the semiclassical approximation. The eigenvalues where this approximation fails are identified and found to be related to caustics that approach the wall of the billiard. The…
We consider the distribution of the (properly normalized) numbers of nodal domains of wave functions in 2-$d$ quantum billiards. We show that these distributions distinguish clearly between systems with integrable (separable) or chaotic…
