Abstract: In this paper, we study the problem of scattering by several strictly convex obstacles, with smooth boundary and satisfying a non eclipse condition. We show, in dimension 2 only, the existence of a spectral gap for the meromorphic continuation of the Laplace operator outside the obstacles. The proof of this result relies on a reduction to an open hyperbolic quantum map, achieved in [arXiv:1105.3128]. In fact, we obtain a spectral gap for this type of objects, which also has applications in potential scattering. The second main ingredient of this article is a fractal uncertainty principle. We adapt the techniques of [arXiv:1906.08923] to apply this fractal uncertainty principle in our context.
