Student DGT: Billiards in Rational Polygons
Jigang Li
Title: Billiards in Rational Polygons
Abstract: Billiards in a polygon refers to the dynamics of a point mass moving at unit speed, with no friction, and elastic collisions with the
sides. In this talk, I will relate them to translation surfaces and
discuss ergodic properties that arise from this connection.
