In this note, we extend the results on eigenfunction concentration in billiards as proved by the third author in \cite{M1}. There, the methods developed in Burq-Zworski \cite{BZ3} to study eigenfunctions for billiards which have rectangular…

This survey is based on a series of talks I gave at the conference "Dynamical systems and diophantine approximation" at l'Instut Henri Poincar\'e in June 2003. I will present asymptotic results (transitivity, ergodicity, weak-mixing) for…

The constrained Dirichlet boundary value problem $\ddot x=f(t,x)$, $x(0)=x(T)$, is studied in billiard spaces, where impacts occur in boundary points. Therefore we develop the research on impulsive Dirichlet problems with state-dependent…

We consider the Stokes eigenvalue problem in open balls and open annuli in R3 with homogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions. Using the frame of toroidal and poloidal fields we construct the othogonal decomposition of the Stokes eigenvalue…

A two-dimensional circular quantum billiard with unusual boundary conditions introduced by Berry and Dennis (\emph{J Phys A} {\bf 41} (2008) 135203) is considered in detail. It is demonstrated that most of its eigenfunctions are strongly…

In this paper the problem of estimating the number of periodical billiard trajectories is considered. The main result is the theorem on Morse theory for periodical billiard trajectories.

Consider the Laplacian in a bounded domain in R^d with general (mixed) homogeneous boundary conditions. We prove that its eigenfunctions are `quasi-orthogonal' on the boundary with respect to a certain norm. Boundary orthogonality is proved…

Given a domain or, more generally, a Riemannian manifold with boundary, a billiard is the motion of a particle when the field of force is absent. Trajectories of such a motion are geodesics inside the domain; and the particle reflects from…

We characterize fundamental domains of affine reflection groups as those polyhedral convex bodies which support a continuous billiard dynamics. We interpret this characterization in the broader context of Alexandrov geometry and prove an…

We introduce a new class of billiard systems in the plane, with boundaries formed by finitely many arcs of confocal conics such that they contain some reflex angles. Fundamental dynamical, topological, geometric, and arithmetic properties…

We consider polygonal billiards with collisions contracting the reflection angle towards the normal to the boundary of the table. In previous work, we proved that such billiards has a finite number of ergodic SRB measures supported on…

Partially rectangular domains are compact two-dimensional Riemannian manifolds $X$, either closed or with boundary, that contain a flat rectangle or cylinder. In this paper we are interested in partially rectangular domains with ergodic…

Motion in bounded domains represents a paradigm in several settings: from billiard dynamics, to random walks in a finite lattice, with applications to relevant physical, ecological and biological problems. A remarkable universal property,…

Eigenfunctions of integrable planar billiards are studied - in particular, the number of nodal domains, $\nu$, of the eigenfunctions are considered. The billiards for which the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation (Helmholtz equation) is…

We study dynamical properties of the billiard flow on convex polyhedra away from a neighbourhood of the non-smooth part of the boundary, called ``pockets''. We prove there are only finitely many immersed periodic tubes missing the pockets…

We introduce the concepts of rotation numbers and rotation vectors for billiard maps. Our approach is based on the birkhoff ergodic theorem. We anticipate that it will be useful, in particular, for the purpose of establishing the…

This paper is inspired from the nice result of Andrew Hassell on the eigenfunctions in the stadium billiard. From a classical paper of V. Arnol'd, we know that quasi-modes are not always close to exact modes. We show that, for almost all…

We propose a method of measuring approximate quantum eigenfunctions in polygonalized billiard geometries, based on a quasiclassical evolution operator having a (smoothened) Perron-Frobenius kernel modulated by a phase arising from quantum…

We test M. Berry's ansatz on nodal deficiency in presence of boundary. The square billiard is studied, where the high spectral degeneracies allow for the introduction of a Gaussian ensemble of random Laplace eigenfunctions…

We study the deep interplay between geometry of quadrics in d-dimensional space and the dynamics of related integrable billiard systems. Various generalizations of Poncelet theorem are reviewed. The corresponding analytic conditions of…
