Abstract
Description
In this paper we show that, under certain generic conditions, billiards on ovals have only a finite number of periodic orbits, for each period, all non-degenerate and at least one of them is hyperbolic. Moreover, the invariant curves of two hyperbolic points are transversal. We explore these properties to give some dynamical consequences specially about the dynamics in the instability regions.
