The Inertial Motion of a <i>Roller Racer</i>

This paper addresses the problem of the inertial motion of a roller racer, which reduces to investigating a dynamical system on a (two-dimensional) torus and to classifying singular points on it. It is shown that the motion of the roller racer in absolute space is asymptotic. A restriction on the system parameters in which this motion is bounded (compact) is presented.
