Abstract: In this paper we continue to study billiards with flat points, by constructing a spec family of dispersing billiards with cusps. All boundaries of the table have positive curvature except that the curvature vanishes at the vertex of a cusp, i.e. there is a pair of boundaries intersection at the flat point tangentially. We study the mixing rates of this one-parameter family of billiards with parameter , and show that the correlation functions of the collision map decay polynomially with order as noinfty. In particular, this solves an open question raised by Chernov and Markarian cite{CM05}.
