چکیده

We study combinatorics of billiard partitions which arose recently in the description periodic trajectories ellipsoidal billiards d-dimensional Euclidean and pseudo-Euclidean spaces. Such uniquely codify sets caustics, up to their types, generate trajectories. The period a trajectory is largest part while winding numbers are remaining summands corresponding partition. In order take into account types caustics as well, we introduce weighted provide closed forms for generating functions these partitions.

Classification of symmetric periodic trajectories in ellipsoidal billiards.

We classify nonsingular symmetric periodic trajectories (SPTs) of billiards inside ellipsoids of R(n+1) without any symmetry of revolution. SPTs are defined as periodic trajectories passing through some symmetry set. We prove that there are exactly 2(2n)(2(n+1)-1) classes of such trajectories. We have implemented an algorithm to find minimal SPTs of each of the 12 classes in the 2D case (R(2)) ...

Quantum Monodromy in Prolate Ellipsoidal Billiards

This is the third in a series of three papers on quantum billiards with elliptic and ellipsoidal boundaries. In the present paper we show that the integrable billiard inside a prolate ellipsoid has an isolated singular point in its bifurcation diagram and, therefore, exhibits classical and quantum monodromy. We derive the monodromy matrix from the requirement of smoothness for the action variab...

Integrable ellipsoidal billiards with separable potentials, billiards on quadrics, and the Poncelet theorem

One of the best known discrete integrable systems is the billiard inside an n-dimensional ellipsoid. Veselov showed that generic complex invariant manifolds of the algebraic billiard map are open subsets of (coverings of) hyperelliptic Jacobians and that the restriction of the map to such manifolds is described by the shift by a constant vector (an algebraic addition law). Later, Dragovic and R...

Periodic trajectories in 3-dimensional convex billiards

We give a lower bound on the number of periodic billiard trajectories inside a generic smooth strictly convex closed surface in 3-space: for odd n, there are at least 2(n − 1) such trajectories. Convex plane billiards were studied by G. Birkhoff, and the case of higher dimensional billiards is considered in our previous papers. We apply a topological approach based on the calculation of cohomol...
