Explicit examples of quasi-exactly-solvable $N$-body problems on the line are presented. These are related to the hidden algebra $sl_N$, and they are of two types -- containing up to $N$ (infinitely-many eigenstates are known, but not all)…
We propose a simple method that allows, in one dimension, to solve exactly a wide class of classical stochastic many-body systems far from equilibrium. For the sake of illustration and without loss of generality, we focus on a model that…

For $n$-body problem with arbitrary positive masses, we prove there are regularizable collinear periodic solutions for any ordering of the masses, going from a simultaneous binary collision to another in half of a period with half of the…
We review and develop the classical theory of moments of configurations of weighted points with a focus on systems with an identically vanishing first moment. The latter condition produces equations for equilibrium configurations of systems…
