The famous three-body problem is investigated by means of a numerical approach with negligible numerical noises in a long enough time interval, namely the Clean Numerical Simulation (CNS). From physical viewpoints, position of any bodies…

We consider the finiteness problem for central configurations of the $n-$body problem. We prove that, for $n\geq4$, there exists a (Zariski) closed subset $B$ in the mass space $\mathbb{R}^{n}$, such that if $(m_1,...,m_n) \in…
We present a new time-stepping criterion for N-body simulations that is based on the true dynamical time of a particle. This allows us to follow the orbits of particles correctly in all environments since it has better adaptivity than…
Wang and White (2007) have discussed some problems with N-body simulation methods. These problems are a special case of a more general problem which has been largely unacknowledged for approximately 25 years, and affects results of all dark…
We construct a non-perturbative, single-valued solution for the metric and the motion of $N$ interacting particles in $2+1$-Gravity. The solution is explicit for two particles with any speed and for any number of particles with small speed.…
We consider the motion of n point particles of positive masses that interact gravitationally on the 2-dimensional hyperbolic sphere, which has negative constant Gaussian curvature. Using the stereographic projection, we derive the equations…
We present a new approach to describe the dynamics of an isolated, gravitationally bound astronomical $N$-body system in the weak field and slow-motion approximation of the general theory of relativity. Celestial bodies are described using…

A precise variational solution to $N$=2--6-body problems is reported. The trial wave functions are chosen to be combinations of correlated Gaussians, which facilitate a fully analytical calculation of the matrix elements. The nonlinear…

This paper presents solutions to Einstein's equation -- and the numerical methods used to construct them -- that describe simple cosmological models on manifolds with compact non-orientable spatial slices. These solutions have been…
It is well known that the three-body problem has few analytical solutions in certain symmetrical constraints; the Lagrangian triangular solution is one of them. This triangular solution has been revisited by R.Broucke and H.Lass in 1971,…
We construct a Nekhoroshev-like result of stability with sharp constants for the planar three body problem, both in the planetary and in the restricted circular case, by using the periodic averaging technique. Our constructions can be…
We formulate the framework of N-fold supersymmetry in one-body quantum mechanical systems with position-dependent mass (PDM). We show that some of the significant properties in the constant-mass case such as the equivalence to weak…
Astrophysical systems differ often in two points from classical thermodynamical systems: 1.) They are open and 2.) gravity is a dominant factor. Both modifies the homogeneous equilibrium structure, known from classical thermodynamics. In…
