Aperiodic points for outer billiards

arXiv:2311.09643

Abstract

Euclidean outer billiard on a regular polygon (that is not a triangle, square or a hexagon) has aperiodic points, i.e., points where all iterates of the outer billiard map are defined and yield pairwise distinct images. This result answers a question of R. Schwartz posed at ICM 2022.
