DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Corinna Ulcigrai\nAbstract: Mathematical billiards are
  an idealisation of the billiard game\, played in "tables" of different sh
 apes. They arise naturally in the study of several problems in physics and
  provide an important model for the mathematical study of chaos. In this t
 alk we will focus in particular focus on polygonal billiards and flows on 
 surfaces\, which constitute two important classes of "slowly" chaotic\, lo
 w complexity systems. We will in particular survey some recent progress on
  some classical physical systems such as the Ehrenfest billiard (1912) or 
 the Novikov model for electrons in metals.
