Let a system of differential equations possess a saddle-node periodic orbit such that every orbit in its unstable manifold is homoclinic, i.e. the unstable manifold is a subset of the (global) stable manifold. We study several bifurcation…
A global bifurcation of the blue sky catastrophe type has been found in a small Prandtl number binary mixture contained in a laterally heated cavity. The system has been studied numerically applying the tools of bifurcation theory. The…

We calculate the location and stability of the L_4 and L_5 Lagrange equilibrium points in the circular restricted three-body problem as the binary system evolves via gravitational radiation losses. Relative to the purely Newtonian case, we…
We consider the Newtonian 3-body problem in dimension 4, and fix a value of the angular momentum which is compatible with this dimension. We show that the energy function cannot tend to its infimum on an unbounded sequence of states.…
The existence of hyperbolic orbits is proved for a class of restricted three-body problems with a fixed energy by taking limit for a sequence of periodic solutions which are obtained by variational methods.
