We introduce a circular restricted charged three-body problem on the plane. In this model, the gravitational and Coulomb forces, due to the primary bodies, act on a test particle; the net force exerted by some primary body on the test…
We investigate the accuracy of first-principles many-body theories at the nanoscale by comparing the low energy excitations of the carbon fullerenes C_20, C_24, C_50, C_60, C_70, and C_80 with experiment. Properties are calculated via the…

The restricted three body problem is well-known and very important for dynamics of binary, multiple stars and also planetary systems. We extend the classical version of this problem to the situation that there are some external forces from…
The interactions between atoms and molecules may be described by a potential energy function of the nuclear coordinates. Non-bonded interactions are dominated by repulsive forces at short range and attractive dispersion forces at long…
Fullerenes are hollow carbon molecules where each atom is connected to exactly three other atoms, arranged in pentagonal and hexagonal rings. Mathematically, they can be combinatorially modeled as planar, 3-regular graphs with facets…
