SHORTCUT:


Markov Approximations and Stochastic Properties of Billiards.

Clay Mathematics Institute and MSRI Conference on Recent Progress in Dynamics
September 30,2004 09:00 AM to 09:45 AM
Speakers:
Szasz, Domokos
VMath - The Next Generation for Math Lectures on Streaming Video

Summary:

Szasz discusses recent work studying doubly periodic billiards on the plane, either with finite or infinite horizon, with smooth convex scatterers. The key new idea is a way of obtaining a Markov approximation without a Markov partition in the corridors of an infinite horizon system.

Keywords:

Dynamics; billiards; Loretz Process; Infinite horizon; finite horizon; Markov approximation; central limit theorem
