This workshop aims to foster the rich interplay between Billiards and Symplectic geometry. Billiards, with their deep connections to dynamical systems and geometry, serve as a valuable tool for studying quantitative symplectic geometry. Conversely, symplectic geometry provides the means to define new types of billiards.
Through lectures, discussions, and collaborative sessions, the event encourages the exchange of ideas, bridging these disciplines and inspiring innovative research directions.
We thank all participants for contributing their open questions. Below, you can find a link to the arXiv version of the conference proceedings, Open Questions in Billiards and Quantitative Symplectic Geometry, which has been accepted for publication in the Arnold Mathematical Journal.
Thanks to all the participants!
