Much recent interest has focused on "open" dynamical systems, in which a classical map or flow is considered only until the trajectory reaches a "hole", at which the dynamics is no longer considered. Here we consider questions pertaining to…
We study polygonal billiards with one-sided vertical mirror scattered on a square billiard table. We associate trajectories of these kinds of billiards with double rotations and study orbit behavior and questions of complexity.
We consider a Sinai billiard where the usual hard disk scatterer is replaced by a repulsive potential with $V(r)\sim\lambda r^{-\alpha}$ close to the origin. Using periodic orbit theory and numerical evidence we show that its spectral…
The aim of the present paper is to establish a Bialy-Mironov type rigidity for centrally symmetric symplectic billiards. For a centrally symmetric $C^2$ strongly-convex domain $D$ with boundary $\partial D$, assume that the symplectic…
We construct examples of contingency tables on $n$ binary random variables where the gap between the linear programming lower/upper bound and the true integer lower/upper bounds on cell entries is exponentially large. These examples provide…
In this paper, we define a variant of billiards in which the ball bounces around a square grid erasing walls as it goes. We prove that there exist periodic tunnels with arbitrarily large period from any possible starting point, that there…
We investigate the effect of white-noise perturbations on chaotic trajectories in open billiards. We focus on the temporal decay of the survival probability for generic mixed-phase-space billiards. The survival probability has a total of…
In this short note we consider the finite-dimensional distributions of sets of states generated by dispersing billiards with a random initial condition. We establish a functional correlation bound on the distance between the…
We prove that any sufficiently small perturbation of an isosceles triangle has a periodic billiard path. Our proof involves the analysis of certain infinite families of Fourier series that arise in connection with triangular billiards, and…
In this paper, we continue to study billiards inside cones $K\subset \mathbb{R}^n$ over strictly convex closed $C^3$ manifolds with non-degenerate second fundamental form. Recently we proved that the billiard is superintegrable, i.e., the…
We study the transport properties of low-energy (quasi)particles ballistically traversing normal and Andreev two-dimensional open cavities with a Sinai-billiard shape. We consider four different geometrical setups and focus on the…
Negatively biased surface-gates allow electrostatic depletion of selected regions of a 2DEG, forming confined regions of specific geometry called billiards, in which ballistic transport occurs. At millikelvin temperatures, the electron…
In the tight-binding approximation we consider multi-channel transmission through a billiard coupled to leads. Following Dittes we derive the coupling matrix, the scattering matrix and the effective Hamiltonian, but take into account the…
We prove some partial results on the periodicity of billiard systems on graphs. The results specialize to the case of $n$ billiards with equal mass on the unit interval or circle traveling at the same speed.
Sinai chaos is characterized by exponential divergence between neighboring trajectories of a point billiard. If the repulsive potential of the finite-diameter fixed particle in the middle of the table is made smooth, the Sinai divergence…
We consider a strictly convex billiard table with $C^2$ boundary, with the dynamics subjected to random perturbations. Each time the billiard ball hits the boundary its reflection angle has a random perturbation. The perturbation…
We obtain sharp error rates in the local limit theorem for the Sinai billiard map (one and two dimensional) with infinite horizon. This result allows us to further obtain higher order terms and thus, sharp mixing rates in the speed of…
Ballistic transport through a collection of quantum billiards in undoped graphene is studied analytically within the conformal mapping technique. The billiards show pseudodiffusive behavior, with the conductance equal to that of a classical…
A variety of mesoscopic systems can be represented as a billiard with a random coupling to the exterior at the boundary. Examples include quantum dots with multiple leads, quantum corrals with different kinds of atoms forming the boundary,…
We introduce a method to find differential equations for functions which define tables, such that associated billiard systems admit a local first integral. We illustrate this method in three situations: the case of (locally) integrable wire…
