A quantitative test for the validity of the semi-classical approximation in gravity is given. The criterion proposed is that solutions to the semi-classical Einstein equations should be stable to linearized perturbations, in the sense that…
The stability of a system of $N$ equal sized mutually gravitating spheres resting on each other in a straight line and rotating in inertial space is considered. This is a generalization of the "Euler Resting" configurations previously…

We prove the existence of a positive solution to a semipositone $N$-Laplacian problem with a critical Trudinger-Moser nonlinearity. The proof is based on obtaining uniform $C^{1,\alpha}$ a priori estimates via a compactness argument. Our…
This paper is concerned with the asymptotic stability of planar stationary solution to an initial-boundary value problem for a two-dimensional hyperbolic-elliptic coupled system of the radiating gas in half space. We show that the solution…
We consider the restricted n + 1-body problem of Newtonian mechanics. For periodic, planar configurations of n bodies which is symmetric under rotation by a fixed angle, the z-axis is invariant. We consider the effect of placing a massless…
In the present paper we consider the system {\Delta}u - W_u (u) = 0, where u: R^n to R^n, for a class of potentials W: R^n to R that possess several global minima and are invariant under a general finite reflection group G. We establish…

We study a basic linear elliptic equation on a lower dimensional rectifiable set $S$ in $\mathbb{R}^N$ with the Neumann boundary data. Set $S$ is a support of a finite Borel measure $\mu$. We will use the measure theoretic tools to…
The equations of the Newtonian $n$-body problem have a matrix form, where an $n\times n$ matrix depending on the masses and on the mutual distances appears as a factor. The $n$ eigenvalues of this matrix are real and nonnegative. In a…
We prove the existence of one positive, one negative, and one sign-changing solution of a $p$-Laplacian equation on $\mathbb{R}^N$, with a $p$-superlinear subcritical term. Sign-changing solutions of quasilinear elliptic equations set on…
The first integral characteristic of the two--centres problem is proven to be an approximate integral (in the sense of N.N.Nekhorossev) to the three--body problem, at least if the masses are very different and the particles are constrained…
In 1993, a proof was published, within ``Classical and Quantum Gravity,'' that there are no regular solutions to the {\it linearized} version of the twisting, type-N, vacuum solutions of the Einstein field equations. While this proof is…
It is shown that the lowest order general relativistic correction produces elliptic orbits with a non-Newtonian eccentricity.
In this paper, we prove the existence of super-hyperbolic orbits in four-body problem, which solves a conjecture of Marchal-Saari. We also prove the existence of noncollision singularities in the same model, which solves a conjecture of…
A previous work introduced pair space, which is spanned by the center of mass of a system and the relative positions (pair positions) of its constituent bodies. Here, I show that in the $N$-body Newtonian problem, a configuration that does…
We give a computer assisted proof of the full listing of central configuration for $n$-body problem for Newtonian potential on the plane for $n=5,6,7$ with equal masses. We show all these central configurations have a reflective symmetry…
In this paper, we consider minimizing the action functional as a method for numerically discovering periodic solutions to the $n$-body problem. With this method, we can find a large number of choreographies and other more general solutions.…
