Obstructions to the ergodicity of three falling balls



February 8, 2016
noon    PHG 646



Abstract
 

Unfortunately, a proof for the ergodicity of three or more falling proof is still missing. The problem is a geometric one, namely, a characteristic tangent vector of a singularity manifold does not lie in the desired contractive cone field. In this talk, we will be more concerned with setting up the invariant cone field and in the end show why the characteristic tangent vector is not contained in it.
