A note on the Kronecker--Weyl equidistribution theorem
J. Beck, W. W. L. Chen, Y. Yang
We study the relationship between the discrete and the continuous versions of the Kronecker--Weyl equidistribution theorem, as well as their possible extension to manifolds in high…
Billiards in polyhedra: a method to convert 2-dimensional uniformity to 3-dimensional uniformity
J. Beck, W. W. L. Chen, Y. Yang
The class of 2-dimensional non-integrable flat dynamical systems has a rather extensive literature with many deep results, but the methods developed for this type of problems, both…
Irreversible and dissipative systems
J. Beck, W. W. L. Chen, Y. Yang
We study some new dynamical systems where the corresponding piecewise linear flow is neither time reversible nor measure preserving. We create a dissipative system by starting with…
Uniformity in cube-covering systems
J. Beck, W. W. L. Chen
We establish various analogs of the Kronecker-Weyl equidistribution theorem that can be considered higher-dimensional versions of results established in our earlier investigation o…
Superdensity and super-micro-uniformity in non-integrable flat systems
J. Beck, W. W. L. Chen
We show that on any non-integrable finite polysquare translation surface, superdensity, an optimal form of time-quantitative density, leads to an optimal form of time-quantitative…
