Upgrading the Local Ergodic Theorem for planar semi-dispersing billiards
The Local Ergodic Theorem (also known as the ‘Fundamental Theorem’) gives sufficient conditions under which a phase point has an open neighborhood that belongs (mod 0) to one ergodic component. This theorem is a key ingredient of many proofs of ergodicity for billiards and, more generally, for smooth hyperbolic maps with singularities. However, the proof of that theorem relies upon a delicate a...

متن کاملFlow-Invariant Hypersurfaces in Semi-Dispersing Billiards
This work results from our attempts to solve Boltzmann–Sinai’s hypothesis about the ergodicity of hard ball gases. A crucial element in the studies of the dynamics of hard balls is the analysis of special hypersurfaces in the phase space consisting of degenerate trajectories (which lack complete hyperbolicity). We prove that if a flow-invariant hypersurface J in the phase space of a semi-disper...
متن کاملSemi-dispersing billiards with an infinite cusp
Let f : [0,+∞) −→ (0,+∞) be a sufficiently smooth convex function, vanishing at infinity. Consider the planar domain Q delimited by the positive x-semiaxis, the positive y-semiaxis, and the graph of f . Under certain conditions on f , we prove that the billiard flow in Q has a hyperbolic structure and, for some examples, that it is also ergodic. This is done using the cross section correspondin...
