Chaotic dynamics in galactic billiards

Speaker

Prof. Vivina Laura Barutello. Department of Mathematics "Giuseppe Peano", University of Turin

Abstract

In this seminar we describe some results on "galactic billiards", a new class of mechanical refraction billiards coming from Celestial Mechanics. In particular we will prove the presence of topological chaos at high internal energies.
