Ergodicity of Billiards in Polygons with Pockets
نویسنده
چکیده
The billiard in a polygon is not always ergodic and never K-mixing or Bernoulli. Here we consider billiard tables by attaching disks to each vertex of an arbitrary simply connected, convex polygon. We show that the billiard on such a table is ergodic, K-mixing and Bernoulli.

Approximation and Billiards
This survey is based on a series of talks I gave at the conference “Dynamical systems and diophantine approximation” at l’Instut Henri Poincaré in June 2003. I will present asymptotic results (transitivity, ergodicity, weak-mixing) for billiards based on the approximation technique developed by Katok and Zemlyakov. I will also present approximation techniques which allow to prove the abundance ...

متن کاملOn the Rate of Quantum Ergodicity on hyperbolic Surfaces and Billiards
The rate of quantum ergodicity is studied for three strongly chaotic (Anosov) systems. The quantal eigenfunctions on a compact Riemannian surface of genus g = 2 and of two triangular billiards on a surface of constant negative curvature are investigated. One of the triangular billiards belongs to the class of arithmetic systems. There are no peculiarities observed in the arithmetic system conce...
