We prove the existence of periodic bounce orbits of prescribed energy on an open bounded domain in Euclidean space. We derive explicit bounds on the period and the number of bounce points.
In recent years, stable and unstable manifolds of invariant objects (such as libration points and periodic orbits) have been increasingly recognized as an efficient tool for designing transfer trajectories in space missions. However, most…

One of the outstanding problems of classical celestial mechanics was the restricted 3-body prob- lem, in which a planetoid of small mass is subject to the Newtonian attraction of two celestial bodies of large mass, as it occurs, for…
In a variety of settings we provide a method for decomposing a 3-manifold $M$ into pieces. When the pieces have the appropriate type of hyperbolicity, then the manifold $M$ is hyperbolic and its volume is bounded below by the sum of the…
We consider the modified Navier-Stokes equations in R3 describing the motion of a fluid in the presence of a rotating rigid body. Weighted Sobolev spaces are used to describe the behavior of solutions at large distances. Under suitable…

In this paper we propose a reduction procedure for determining generalized travelling waves for first order quasilinear hyperbolic nonhomogeneous systems. The basic idea is to look for solutions of the governing model which satisfy a…
We study a one-dimensional ordinary differential equation modelling optical conveyor belts, showing in particular cases of physical interest that periodic solutions exist. Moreover, under rather general assumptions it is proved that the set…
Several N-body problems in ordinary (3-dimensional) space are introduced which are characterized by Newtonian equations of motion (``acceleration equal force;'' in most cases, the forces are velocity-dependent) and are amenable to exact…
We analyse the intersection of positively and negatively sectional-hyperbolic sets for flows on compact manifolds. First we prove that such an intersection is hyperbolic if the intersecting sets are both transitive (this is false without…
Consider the planar 3 Body Problem with masses $m_0,m_1,m_2>0$. In this paper we address two fundamental questions: the existence of oscillatory motions and of chaotic hyperbolic sets. In 1922, Chazy classified the possible final motions of…
An approach is developed to find approximate solutions to the restricted circular three body problem. The solution is useful in approximately describing the position vectors of three spherically symmetric masses, one of which has a much…
