Symbolic Dynamics of Magnetic Bumps

For n convex magnetic bumps in the plane, whose boundary has a curvature somewhat smaller than the absolute value of the constant magnetic field inside the bump, we construct a complete symbolic dynamics of a classical particle moving with speed one.Comment: 11 pages, 4 figure

Symbolic dynamics and relatively hyperbolic groups

We study the action of a relatively hyperbolic group on its boundary, by methods of symbolic dynamics. Under a condition on the parabolic subgroups, we show that this dynamical system is finitely presented. We give examples where this condition is satisfied, including geometrically finite kleinian groups.Comment: Revision, 16 pages, 1 figur
