Fractals and Billiard Orbits on Sierpinski Carpets

Sammanfattning: This Bachelor's thesis deals with fractals and orbits on Sierpinski carpets. We present the fundamental theory regarding fractals and some illustrative examples together with fractal billiards. In the latter part of the thesis we use elementary methods to present an original proof concerning the closure of some billiard orbits on Sierpinski carpets. A survey of the article Periodic Billiard orbits of self-similar Sierpinski Carpets, see [8], has been done, in which we make a discussion about one open question regarding reflections on the carpet. Furthermore, we state and prove some propositions related to this open question.
