The closedness of orbits of central forces is addressed in a three dimensional space in which the Poisson bracket among the coordinates is that of the SU(2) Lie algebra. In particular it is shown that among problems with spherically…

We show that if a closed $C^1$-smooth surface in a Riemannian manifold has bounded Kolasinski--Menger energy, then it can be triangulated with triangles whose number is bounded by the energy and the area. Each of the triangles is an image…
