Periodicity conjecture for Hexhouses

A Hexhouse is the lattice polygon obtained by placing a trapezoid on top of a square, with its moduli described by three integral parameters. Hexhouse periodicity conjecture. Every orbit of the symplectic billiard map in a Hexhouse is periodic. The paper presents computer evidence for this claim and explicitly formulates it as a conjecture; no proof or resolution is supplied.
