We also prove that, if the billiard maps corresponding to two ellipses are topologically conjugate, then the two ellipses are similar.}, author = {Koudjinan, Edmond and Kaloshin, Vadim}, issn = {1468-4845}, journal = {Regular and Chaotic Dynamics}, keywords = {Mechanical Engineering, Applied Mathematics, Mathematical Physics, Modeling and Simulation, Statistical and Nonlinear Physics, Mathematics (miscellaneous)}, number = {6}, pages = {525--537}, publisher = {Springer Nature}, title = {{On some invariants of Birkhoff billiards under conjugacy}}, doi = {10.1134/S1560354722050021}, volume = {27}, year = {2022}, } @unpublished{9435, abstract = {For any given positive integer l, we prove that every plane deformation of a circlewhich preserves the 1/2and 1/ (2l + 1) -rational caustics is trivial i.e. the deformationconsists only of similarities (rescalings and isometries).}, author = {Kaloshin, Vadim and Koudjinan, Edmond}, title = {{Non co-preservation of the 1/2 and 1/(2l+1)-rational caustics along deformations of circles}}, year = {2021}, } @article{8689, abstract = {This paper continues the discussion started in [CK19] concerning Arnold's legacy on classical KAM theory and (some of) its modern developments.

We illustrate the effectiveness of our approach by constructing a dynamically defined partition 𝒫 of the parameter interval Ω=[1.4,2] into almost 4×106 subintervals, for each of which we compute to high precision the orbits of the critical points up to some time N and other dynamically relevant quantities, several of which can vary greatly, possibly spanning several orders of magnitude. We also subdivide 𝒫 into a family 𝒫+ of intervals, which we call stochastic intervals, and a family 𝒫− of intervals, which we call regular intervals. We numerically prove that each interval ω∈𝒫+ has an escape time, which roughly means that some iterate of the critical point taken over all the parameters in ω has considerable width in the phase space. This suggests, in turn, that most parameters belonging to the intervals in 𝒫+ are stochastic and most parameters belonging to the intervals in 𝒫− are regular, thus the names. We prove that the intervals in 𝒫+ occupy almost 90% of the total measure of Ω.
