Proof of the Ergodic Hypothesis for Typical Hard Ball Systems

چکیده
We consider the system of N (≥ 2) hard balls with masses m1, . . . , mN and radius r in the flat torus TL = R /L · Z of size L, ν ≥ 3. We prove the ergodicity (actually, the Bernoulli mixing property) of such systems for almost every selection (m1, . . . , mN ; L) of the outer geometric parameters. This theorem complements my earlier result that proved the same, almost sure ergodicity for the case ν = 2. The method of that proof was primarily dynamical-geometric, whereas the present approach is inherently algebraic. Primary subject classification: 37D50 Secondary subject classification: 34D05

We consider the system of N (≥ 2) hard disks of masses m1, . . . , mN and radius r in the flat unit torus T. We prove the ergodicity (actually, the B-mixing property) of such systems for almost every selection (m1, . . . , mN ; r) of the outer geometric parameters.

متن کاملConditional Proof of the Boltzmann-sinai Ergodic Hypothesis (assuming the Hyperbolicity of Typical Singular Orbits)
We consider the system of N (≥ 2) elastically colliding hard balls of masses m1, . . . , mN and radius r on the flat unit torus T , ν ≥ 2. We prove the so called Boltzmann-Sinai Ergodic Hypothesis, i. e. the full hyperbolicity and ergodicity of such systems for every selection (m1, . . . , mN ; r) of the external geometric parameters, under the assumption that almost every singular trajectory i...

We consider the system of N (≥ 2) elastically colliding hard balls with masses m1, . . . ,mN moving uniformly in the flat unit torus T , ν ≥ 3. It is proved here that the arising billiard flow possesses the K-mixing property for almost every distribution of the masses m1, . . . ,mN .

We consider the system of N (≥ 2) elastically colliding hard balls of masses m1, . . . , mN and radius r in the flat unit torus T , ν ≥ 2. In the case ν = 2 we prove (the full hyperbolicity and) the ergodicity of such systems for every selection (m1, . . . , mN ; r) of the external geometric parameters, without exceptional values. In higher dimensions, for hard ball systems in T (ν ≥ 3), we pro...
