Lower bound for the escape probability in the Lorentz mirror model on Z^2

From MaRDI portal
Publication:891180



Abstract: We show that in the Lorentz mirror model, at any density of mirrors, the probability of a particle starting at the origin to reach distance n is at least 1/(2n+1).


The authors refer to the Lorentz mirror model and consider the event that a ray of light starting from the origin reaches the square \((-n,n)(-n,n)\). It is shown that its probability is larger than \(1/(2n+1)\).
