Outer billiards and tilings of the hyperbolic plane

Filiz Dogru, Emily M. Fischer and Cristian Mihai Munteanu

Vol. 8 (2015), No. 4, 637–651
Abstract

We present new results regarding the periodicity of outer billiards in the hyperbolic plane around polygonal tables which are tiles in regular two-piece tilings of the hyperbolic plane.

Keywords
