Obstacles $K$ and $L$ in $R^d$ ($dgeq 2$) are considered that are finite disjoint unions of strictly convex domains with $C^3$ boundaries. We show that if $K$ and $L$ have (almost) the same scattering length spectrum, or (almost) the same traveling times, then $K = L$.

It was proved in cite{NS1} that obstacles $K$ in $R^d$ that are finite disjoint unions of strictly convex domains with $C^3$ boundaries are uniquely determined by the travelling times of billiard trajectories in their exteriors and also by their so called scattering length spectra. However the case $d = 2$ is not properly covered in cite{NS1}. In the present paper we give a separate different proof of the same result in the case $d = 2$.
The purpose of this article is to study the eigenvalues $u_1^{, t}=e^{ittheta_1},dots,u_N^{,t}=e^{ittheta_N}$ of $U^t$ where $U$ is a large $Ntimes N$ random unitary matrix and $t>0$. In particular we are interested in the typical times $t$ for which all the eigenvalues are simultaneously close to $1$ in different ways thus corresponding to recurrence times in the issue of quantum measurements. Our strategy consists in rewriting the problem as a random matrix integral and use loop equations techniques to compute the first orders of the large $N$ asymptotic. We also connect the problem to the computation of a large Toeplitz determinant whose symbol is the characteristic function of several arc segments of the unit circle. In particular in the case of a single arc segment we recover Widoms formula. Eventually we explain why the first return time is expected to converge towards an exponential distribution when $N$ is large. Numeric simulations are provided along the paper to illustrate the results.
In this paper we consider compact, Riemannian manifolds $M_1, M_2$ each equipped with a one-parameter family of metrics $g_1(t), g_2(t)$ satisfying the Ricci flow equation. Motivated by a characterization of the super Ricci flow developed by McCann-Topping, we introduce the notion of a super Ricci flow for a family of distance metrics defined on the disjoint union $MM$. In particular, we show such a super Ricci flow property holds provided the distance function between points in $M_1$ and $M_2$ evolves by the heat equation. We also discuss possible applications and examples.
The paper deals with some problems related to recovering information about an obstacle in an Euclidean space from certain measurements of lengths of generalized geodesics in the exterior of the obstacle. The main result is that if two obstacles satisfy some generic regularity conditions and have (almost) the same traveling times, then the generalized geodesic flows in their exteriors are conjugate on the non-trapping part of their phase spaces with a time preserving conjugacy. In the case of a union of two strictly convex domains in the plane, a constructive algorithm is described to recover the obstacle from traveling times.
In this paper we investigate the existence of closed billiard trajectories in not necessarily smooth convex bodies. In particular, we show that if a body $Ksubset mathbb{R}^d$ has the property that the tangent cone of every non-smooth point $qin partial K$ is acute (in a certain sense) then there is a closed billiard trajectory in $K$.
