Periodic billiard orbits in right triangles

Serge Troubetzkoy (2005)

Annales de l’institut Fourier

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.

Propriétés arithmétiques et dynamiques du fractal de Rauzy

Ali Messaoudi (1998)

Journal de théorie des nombres de Bordeaux

Dans ce travail, nous construisons explicitement deux isomorphismes métriques partout continus. L’un entre le système dynamique symbolique associé à la substitution σ : 0 01 , 1 02 , 2 0 et une rotation sur le tore 𝕋 2 ; l’autre, entre le système adique stationnaire [33] associé à la matrice de la substitution et la même rotation. Pour cela, nous étudions les propriétés arithmétiques de la frontière d’un ensemble compact de appelé “fractal de Rauzy”. Les constructions se généralisent aux substitutions de la forme σ k : 0 01 , 1 02 , k - 1 0 k , k 0 ...

P-sets and minimal right ideals in ℕ*

W. R. Brian (2015)

Fundamenta Mathematicae

Recall that a P-set is a closed set X such that the intersection of countably many neighborhoods of X is again a neighborhood of X. We show that if 𝔱 = 𝔠 then there is a minimal right ideal of (βℕ,+) that is also a P-set. We also show that the existence of such P-sets implies the existence of P-points; in particular, it is consistent with ZFC that no minimal right ideal is a P-set. As an application of these results, we prove that it is both consistent with and independent of ZFC that the shift...
