Aperiodic Lorentz gas: recurrence and ergodicity

Marco Lenci

Published 2002-06-27Version 1

We prove that any generic (i.e., possibly aperiodic) Lorenz gas in two dimensions, with finite horizon and non-degenerate geometrical features, is ergodic if it is recurrent. We also give examples of aperiodic recurrent gases.
