Positive topological entropy conjecture for lemon billiards
Let be the intersection of two unit disks with center distance , and let
be the billiard map on the lemon table . Lemon billiard entropy conjecture. For every ,
The conjecture asks whether every lemon billiard has positive topological entropy; the paper proves this for in a one-sided neighborhood of , apart from possibly a discrete subset, by establishing crossing homoclinic and heteroclinic intersections.
