Beschreibung:
A billiard is a dynamical system in which a point particle alternates between free motion and specular reflections from the boundary of a domain. Exterior Billiards presents billiards in the complement of domains and their applications in aerodynamics and geometrical optics.
Surveying the nature of dynamical systems, in which a point particle alternates between free motion and specular reflections from the boundary of a domain, this book assesses the ways in which they can be applied to aerodynamics as well as geometrical optics.
