Reference for standard lemmas in polygonal billiards

I'm trying to track down references for a couple of well-known results in the theory of polygonal billiards for a paper I'm working on. Recall that periodic trajectories on a polygonal table occur in …

Order density of smooth functions among continuous functions?

Yes, since smooth functions are dense in $C^0([a,b])$ with the supremum norm. Since $[a,b]$ is compact, $\inf (h-f)$ is acheived somewhere in $[a,b]$ so must be positive. Thus any smooth function $g$ …

Do identical orbit tiles imply identical combinatorial types?

Given a periodic trajectory on a triangle, we can associate to this trajectory a sequence of integers $1,2$ and $3$ by labeling the edges of the triangle and taking the sequence of edges the trajector …

Strata of quadratic differentials from rational billiards

Given a quadratic differential $q$ on a surface of genus $g$, we say that $q\in \mathcal Q(k_1,\ldots,k_n)$ if $q$ has $n$ distinct zeroes of order $k_1,\ldots,k_n$ respectively. The set $\mathcal Q(k …
