Eigenstates and energy levels of a square quantum billiard in a magnetic field, or with an Aharonov-Bohm flux line, are found in quasiclassical approximation, that is, for high enough energy. Explicit formulas for the energy levels and…
In this note we further develop the idea of using a ``black box'' point of view (see our previous work) to study eigenfunctions for billiards which have rectangular components: they include the Bunimovich billiard, the Sinai billiard, and…
An electron in quantum confinement takes on a discrete energy spectrum which is defined based on the solution to the Schrodinger Equation for a given potential. Well defined closed-form energy spectra are known for the particle in a box,…
We give lowed bounds on the number of periodic trajectories in strictly convex smooth billiards in $\R^{m+1}$ for $m\ge 3$. For plane billiards (when m=1) such bounds were obtained by G. Birkhoff in the 1920's. Our proof is based on…
While many dynamical systems of mechanical origin, in particular billiards, are strongly chaotic -- enjoy exponential mixing, the rates of mixing in many other models are slow (algebraic, or polynomial). The dynamics in the latter are…
