Code & order in polygonal billiards

Jozef Bobok, Serge Troubetzkoy

Published 2011-02-21Version 1

Two polygons $P,Q$ are code equivalent if there are billiard orbits $u,v$ which hit the same sequence of sides and such that the projections of the orbits are dense in the boundaries $\partial P, \partial Q$. Our main results show when code equivalent polygons have the same angles, resp. are similar, resp. affinely similar.
