Existence of a dense wave front in every convex billiard
Existence of a dense wave front in every convex billiard
Let a convex billiard table be a convex planar domain, and let denote the billiard wave front at time from a point in the table. The wave front becomes dense if it eventually intersects every open subset of the billiard table. Convex-billiard existence conjecture. For all convex billiard tables, there is a point such that the wave front becomes dense. This is presented as a further plausible statement beyond generic density and is not known in the source.
