Exponential Fermi Acceleration in a Switching Billiard

In this paper we show an infinite measure set of exponentially escaping orbits for a resonant Fermi accelerator, which is realised as a square billiard with a periodically oscillating platform. We use normal forms to describe how the energy changes in a period and we employ techniques for hyperbolic systems with singularities to show the exponential drift of these normal forms on a divided time-energy phase
