Abstract
Abstract This paper introduces a space of nonabelian modular symbols 𝒮(V){{\mathcal{S}}(V)} attached to any hyperbolic Riemann surface V, and applies it to obtain new results on polygonal billiards and holomorphic 1-forms. In particular, it shows the scarring behavior of periodic trajectories for billiards in a regular polygon is governed by a countable set of measures homeomorphic to ωω+1{\omega^{\omega}+1}.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
