Outer Billiards on Kites (AM-171) /

"Outer billiards is a basic dynamical system defined relative to a convex shape in the plane. B.H. Neumann introduced this system in the 1950s, and J. Moser popularized it as a toy model for celestial mechanics. All along, the so-called Moser-Neumann question has been one of the central problem...
