Chaos Detection by Fast Dynamic Indicators in Reflecting Billiards

The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a closed domain with a reflecting boundary amounts, in the eikonal approximation, to the propagation of rays in a billiard. If the inner medium is uniform, then the symplectic reflection map provides the polygonal rays’ paths. The linear response theory is...

Sumario:The propagation of electromagnetic waves in a closed domain with a reflecting boundary amounts, in the eikonal approximation, to the propagation of rays in a billiard. If the inner medium is uniform, then the symplectic reflection map provides the polygonal rays’ paths. The linear response theory is used to analyze the stability of any trajectory. The Lyapunov and reversibility error invariant indicators provide an estimate of the sensitivity to a small initial random deviation and to a small random deviation at any reflection, respectively. A family of chaotic billiards is considered to test the chaos detection effectiveness of the above indicators.
