Proceedings of the Fields Institute Conference/NATO Advanced Research Workshop held in June 1993. Providence, RI: American Mathematical Society. Fields Inst. Commun. 6, 43-54 (1996). Summary: Computer simulations of the motion of a point particle on a lattice occupied by obstacles from which it scatters according to deterministic scattering laws are discussed. For a random distribution of the scatterers over the lattice sites, various types of non-Gaussian diffusion or of propagation are observed. For a fully occupied lattice with a periodic distribution of the scatterers examples of propagation or closed orbits of the particle are given. A number of theorems have recently been proved by Bunimovich and Troubetzkoy on this behavior.For the entire collection see [Zbl 0833.00025].
