We describe some dynamical properties of one parameter families of billiards on convex curves (ovals) which are deformed by the curvature (curve-shortening) flow. We obtain the bifurcations of the period two orbits and some special…

We measure elastomechanical spectra for a family of thin shells. We show that these spectra can be described by a "semiclassical" trace formula comprising periodic orbits on geodesics, with the periods of these orbits consistent with those…

Using semi-classical formalism and asymptotic proliferation law of periodic orbits, we obtain an analytical expressions for the two-level cluster function, spectral form factor, level spacing distribution and the number variance for…

In the present work we explore the concept of solitary wave billiards. I.e., instead of a point particle, we examine a solitary wave in an enclosed region and explore its collision with the boundaries and the resulting trajectories in cases…

Periodic orbits are the central ingredients of modern semiclassical theories and corrections to these are generally non-classical in origin. We show here that for the class of generic polygonal billiards, the corrections are predominantly…

We study the thermal rectification phenomenon in ``billiard'' systems with interacting particles. This interaction induces a local dynamical response of the billiard to an external thermodynamic gradient. To explain this dynamical effect we…

We study a system of an elastic ball moving in the non-relativistic spacetime with a nontrivial causal structure produced by a wormhole-based time machine. For such a system it is possible to formulate a simple model of the so-called…

The geometry of a billiard boundary fundamentally governs its dynamics, ranging from integrable to mixed and fully chaotic regimes. Bean- and peanut-shaped billiards have varying curvature with both focusing and defocusing walls without a…

We discuss general aspects of non-relativistic quantum chaos theory of scattering of a quantum particle on a system of a large number of naked singularities. We define such a system space-temporal Sinai billiard We dis- cuss the problem in…

We design a computational experiment in which a quantum particle tunnels into a billiard of variable shape and scatters out of it through a double-slit opening on the billiard's base. The interference patterns produced by the scattered…

Non-generic contributions to the quantal level-density from parallel segments in billiards are investigated. These contributions are due to the existence of marginally stable families of periodic orbits, which are structurally unstable, in…

We study the effect on quantum spectra of the existence of small circular disks in a billiard system. In the limit where the disk radii vanish there is no effect, however this limit is approached very slowly so that even very small radii…

The three-disk scatterer has served as a paradigm for semiclassical periodic orbit quantization of classical chaotic systems using Gutzwiller's trace formula. It represents an open quantum system, thus leading to spectra of complex…

We present experimental studies of the geometry-specific quantum scattering in microwave billiards of a given shape. We perform full quantum mechanical scattering calculations and find an excellent agreement with the experimental results.…

We study the billiard dynamics in annular tables between two excentric circles. As the center and the radius of the inner circle change, a two parameters map is defined by the first return of trajectories to the obstacle. We obtain an…

We characterise the eigenfunctions of an equilateral triangle billiard in terms of its nodal domains. The number of nodal domains has a quadratic form in terms of the quantum numbers, with a non-trivial number-theoretic factor. The patterns…

The problem of two interacting particles moving in a d-dimensional billiard is considered here. A suitable coordinate transformation leads to the problem of a particle in an unconventional hyperbilliard. A dynamical map can be readily…

We propose a generic mechanism for the formation of narrow rings in rotating systems. For this purpose we use a system of discs rotating about a common center lying well outside the discs. A discussion of this system shows that narrow rings…

We use the semiclassical quantization scheme of Bogomolny to calculate eigenvalues of the Lima\c con quantum billiard corresponding to a conformal map of the circle billiard. We use the entire billiard boundary as the chosen surface of…

We present first measurements on a superconducting three-dimensional, partly chaotic microwave billiard shaped like a small deformed cup. We analyze the statistical properties of the measured spectrum in terms of several methods originally…
