Periodic billiard orbits in right triangles
There is an open set of right triangles such that for each irrational triangle in this set (i) periodic billiards orbits are dense in the phase space, (ii) there is a unique nonsingular perpendicular billiard orbit which is not periodic, and (iii) the perpendicular periodic orbits fill the corresponding invariant surface.

متن کاملCentral Symmetries of Periodic Billiard Orbits in Right Triangles
We show that the midpoint of each periodic perpendicular beam hits the right-angle vertex of the triangle. The beam returns to itself after half its period with the opposite orientation, i.e. a Möbeius band.

1 Billiards and related systems 1.1 Polygonal outer billiards in the hyperbolic plane The outer billiard about a convex polygon P in the plane R 2 is a piece-wise isometry, T , of the exterior of P defined as follows: given a point x outside of P , find the support line to P through x having P on the left, and define T (x) to be the reflection of x in the support vertex. See [10, 35]. Figure 1:...
