Hausdorff dimension of three-period orbits in Birkhoff billiards

Sergei Merenkov, Vadim Zharnitsky

Research output: Contribution to journalArticlepeer-review

Abstract

We prove that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of three-period orbits in classical billiards is at most one. Moreover, if the set of three-period orbits has Hausdorff dimension one, then it has a tangent line at almost every point.
