Hyperbolic Magnetic Billiards on Surfaces¶of Constant Curvature

Abstract: We consider classical billiards on surfaces of constant curvature, where the charged billiard ball is exposed to a homogeneous, stationary magnetic field perpendicular to the surface.We establish sufficient conditions for hyperbolicity of the billiard dynamics, and give lower estimation for the Lyapunov exponent. This extends our recent results for non-magnetic billiards on surfaces of constant curvature. Using these conditions, we construct large classes of magnetic billiard tables with positive Lyapunov expo… Show more

“…Moreover, under this assumption, if a circle of radius r oriented in the same direction as the boundary is tangent to ∂Ω (with the agreed orientation), then it contains the domain Ω inside. Ordinary Magnetic billiards were studied in many papers; see, e.g., [2], [5], [18], [3], [26], [10]. Two-sided magnetic billiards were introduced in [23].…”

“…It follows immediately that the equation of motion for the velocity v depends only on the rotation B = ∇×A of the vector potential. It reads m er = qB ∇(r × v) (2.4) 1 The motion on magnetic surfaces of finite curvature received some attention in recent years both in the classical [11][12][13][14] and the quantum treatment [11,15,12,16,17]. One motivation for introducing a non-vanishing curvature is the possibility to study the quantum spectrum of the free magnetic motion on a compact domain (a modular domain in the case of constant negative curvature).…”

“…7,16 There are several investigations of stochastization of motion in the magnetic billiards with and without curvature of the boundaries of domain where charged particles move. 18,23,43,44 One of possible triggers of stochastization of motion is the destruction of adiabatic invariance (for magnetic billiards, the role of this invariant is played by the classical magnetic moment 35 ). It was shown that destruction of the adiabaticity in magnetic billiards can realize in case of an inhomogeneous magnetic field.…”
