Stable laws for chaotic billiards with cusps at flat points

/ Abstract
We consider billiards with a single cusp where the walls meeting at the vertex of the cusp have zero one-sided curvature, thus forming a flat point at the vertex. For Hölder continuous observables, we show that properly normalized Birkoff sums, with respect to the billiard map, converge in law to a totally skewed $α$-stable law.
