D. Dolgopyat is the winner of the second Brin Prize in Dynamical Systems(2009). This article overviews his remarkable achievements in anontechnical manner. It complements two other surveys of Dolgopyat's workwritten by Y. Pesin and C. Liverani and published in this issue. Thissurvey covers Dolgopyat's work on various physical models, including theLorentz gas, Galton board, and some systems of hard disks.
Keywords: Galton board, hard disks., Brin prize, Lorentz gas, Dolgopyat.
