Abstract:Billiard systems offer a simple setting to study regular and chaotic dynamics. Gravitational billiards are generalizations of these classical billiards which are amenable to both analytical and experimental investigations. Most previous work on gravitational billiards has been concerned with two dimensional boundaries. In particular the case of linear boundaries, also known as the wedge billiard, has been widely studied. In this work, we introduce a three dimensional version of the wedge; that is, we study the… Show more
