In order to get $\lambda$-models with a rich structure of $\infty$-groupoid, which we call "homotopy $\lambda$-models", a general technique is described for solving domain equations on any cartesian closed $\infty$-category (c.c.i.) with…
The two-dimensional n-body problem of classical mechanics is a non-integrable Hamiltonian system for n > 2. Traditional numerical integration algorithms, which are polynomials in the time step, typically lead to systematic drifts in the…
We propose a new treatment for the quantum three-body problem. It is based on an expansion of the wave function on harmonic oscillator functions with different sizes in the Jacobi coordinates. The matrix elements of the Hamiltonian can be…
We consider the Newtonian 5-body problem in the plane, where 4 bodies have the same mass m, which is small compared to the mass M of the remaining body. We consider the (normalized) relative equilibria in this system, and follow them to the…
We consider the $n$--body problem defined on surfaces of constant negative curvature. For the case of $n$--equal masses we prove that the hyperbolic relative equilibria with a regular polygonal shape do not exist. In particular the…
The three-body problem is arguably the oldest open question in astrophysics, and has resisted a general analytic solution for centuries. Various implementations of perturbation theory provide solutions in portions of parameter space, but…
This paper proves that for every convex body in R^n there exist 5n-4 Minkowski symmetrizations, which transform the body into an approximate Euclidean ball. This result complements the sharp c n log n upper estimate by J. Bourgain, J.…
The inverse problem is studied in multi-body systems with nonlinear dynamics representing, e.g., phase-locked wave systems, standard multimode and random lasers. Using a general model for four-body interacting complex-valued variables we…
Our idea is to imitate Smale's list of problems, in a restricted domain of mathematical aspects of Celestial Mechanics. All the problems are on the n-body problem, some with different homogeneity of the potential, addressing many aspects…
Starting from a relativistic s-wave scattering length model for the two particle input we construct an unambiguous, unitary solution of the relativistic three body problem given only the masses $m_a,m_b,m_c$ and the masses of the two body…

We present the complete scheme of the application of the one-and two dimensional subspace and subgroups method to five-dimensional gravity with a $G_{3}$ group of motion. We do so in the space time and in the potential space formalisms.…
Three aspects of applying homotopy continuation, which is commonly used to solve parameterized systems of polynomial equations, are investigated. First, for parameterized systems which are homogeneous, we investigate options for performing…
We investigate the family of electrostatic spherically symmetric solutions of the five-dimensional Kaluza-Klein theory. Both charged and neutral cases are considered. The analysis of the solutions, through their geometrical properties,…
We present a method for treatment of three charged particles. The proposed method has universal character and is applicable both for bound and continuum states. A finite rank approximation is used for Coulomb potential in three-body system…
We show that there exist an upper bound and a lower bound for the number of non-degenerate central configurations of the n-body problem in the plane with a homogeneous potential. In particular, both bounds are independent of the homogeneous…
We obtain an approximate global stationary and axisymmetric solution of Einstein's equations which can be considered as a simple star model: a self-gravitating perfect fluid ball with constant mass density rotating in rigid motion. Using…
The configuration space of the planar three-body problem when collisions are excluded has a rich topology which supports a large set of free homotopy classes. Most classes survive modding out by rotations. Those that survive are called the…
