Let $L^2(X,\Sigma,\mu,\tau)$ be a measure-preserving system, with $\tau$ a $\mathbb{Z}$-action. In this note, we prove that the ergodic averages along integer-valued polynomials, $P(n)$, \[ M_N(f):= \frac{1}{N}\sum_{n \leq N} \tau^{P(n)} f…
We consider classical dynamical properties of a particle in a constant gravitational force and making specular reflections with circular, elliptic or oval boundaries. The model and collision map are described and a detailed study of the…
Examining multiple ergodic averages whose iterates are integer parts of real valued polynomials for totally ergodic systems, we provide various characterizations of total joint ergodicity, meaning that an average converges to the "expected"…
A dessin d'enfant, or dessin, is a bicolored graph embedded into a Riemann surface, and the monodromy group is an algebraic invariant of the dessin generated by rotations of edges about black and white vertices. A rational polygonal…
Let $T$ be an ergodic measure-preserving transformation on a non-atomic probability space $(X,\Sigma,\mu)$. We prove uniform extensions of the Wiener-Wintner theorem in two settings: For averages involving weights coming from Hardy field…
We give a proof for $(2n + 1,n)$ and $(2n, n-1)$-periodic Ivrii's conjecture for planar outer billiards. We also give new simple geometric proofs for the 3 and 4-periodic cases for outer and symplectic billiards, and generalize for higher…
In view of classical results of Masur and Veech almost every element in the moduli space of compact translation surfaces is recurrent. In this paper we focus on the problem of recurrence for elements of smooth curves in the moduli space. We…
The orbit closure of the unfolding of every rational right and isosceles triangle is computed and the asymptotic number of periodic billiard trajectories in these triangles is deduced. This follows by classifying all orbit closures of rank…
We show that for a rational polygonal billiard, the set of pairs of points that do not illuminate each other (not connected by a billiard trajectory) is finite, and use the same method to extend the results of Leli\`evre, Monteil and Weiss,…
In this article we obtain an improved upper bound for the regularity of binomial edge ideals of trees.
This paper aims to develop the mathematical representation of a surface generated by elliptical arcs joining the sides of a regular polygon to a point lying vertically upward on the central axis of the polygon. The volume of the…
We review some properties of periodic orbit families in polygonal billiards and discuss in particular a sum rule that they obey. In addition, we provide algorithms to determine periodic orbit families and present numerical results that shed…
We prove the existence and describe limiting curves resulting from deviations in partial sums in the ergodic theorem for cylindrical functions and polynomial (self-similar) adic systems. For a general ergodic measure-preserving…
For a linear transformation A from Rn to Rn, we give sharp bounds for the average distortion of A, that is, the average value of log of the euclidean norm of Au over all unit vectors u. This is closely related to the results of the author's…
We establish a higher dimensional counterpart of Bourgain's pointwise ergodic theorem along an arbitrary integer-valued polynomial mapping. We achieve this by proving variational estimates $V_r$ on $L^p$ spaces for all $1<p<\infty$ and…
The classical inner and outer billiards can be formulated in variational terms, with length and area as the respective generating functions. The other two combinations, ``inner with area'' and ``outer with length,'' are more recently…
We study the limiting distribution of the rational points under a horizontal translation along a sequence of expanding closed horocycles on the modular surface. Using spectral methods we confirm equidistribution of these sample points for…
