If the scatterer is a submanifold of codimension more than one, we say that the billiard is degenerate. Degenerate billiards appear as limits of systems with singularities in celestial mechanics. We prove the existence of trajectories of such systems shadowing trajectories of the corresponding degenerate billiards. This research is motivated by the problem of second species solutions of Poincar\\'e.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-12-28T15:12:53.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37D05", "37D50", "37J10", "70F15", "70F16" ], "keywords": [ "celestial mechanics", "degenerate billiards appear", "ordinary billiard trajectories", "second species solutions", "hamiltonian system" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
