Strictly Convex Corners Scatter
We prove the absence of non-scattering energies for potentials in the plane having a corner of angle smaller than π. This extends the earlier result of Bl̊asten, Päivärinta and Sylvester who considered rectangular corners. In three dimensions, we prove a similar result for any potential with a circular conic corner whose opening angle is outside a countable subset of (0, π).
متن کاملMinimum Strictly Convex Quadrangulations of Convex
We present a linear{time algorithm that decomposes a convex polygon conformally into a minimum number of strictly convex quadrilaterals. Moreover, we characterize the polygons that can be decomposed without additional vertices inside the polygon, and we present a linear{time algorithm for such decompositions, too. As an application , we consider the problem of constructing a minimum conformal r...
متن کاملCores of convex and strictly convex games
We follow the path initiated in Shapley (1971) and study the geometry of the core of convex and strictly convex games. We define what we call face games and use them to study the combinatorial complexity of the core of a strictly convex game. Remarkably, we present a picture that summarizes our results with the aid of Pascal’s triangle. JEL classification: C71.
متن کاملOn Conjugacy of Convex Billiards
Given a strictly convex domain Ω ⊂ R2, there is a natural way to define a billiard map in it: a rectilinear path hitting the boundary reflects so that the angle of reflection is equal to the angle of incidence. In this paper we answer a relatively old question of Guillemin. We show that if two billiard maps are C2-conjugate near the boundary, then the corresponding domains are similar, i.e. the...
متن کاملPeriodic 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...
