In this note, we prove that below the first critical energy level, a proper combination of the Ligon-Schaaf and Levi-Civita regularization mappings provides a convex symplectic embedding of the energy surfaces of the planar rotating Kepler…

In (Fusco et. al., 2011) several periodic orbits of the Newtonian N-body problem have been found as minimizers of the Lagrangian action in suitable sets of T-periodic loops, for a given T>0. Each of them share the symmetry of one Platonic…

We determine the general form of the potential of the problem of motion of a rigid body about a fixed point, which allows the angular velocity to remain permanently in a principal plane of inertia of the body. Explicit solution of the…

Assuming SO(3)-spherical symmetry, the 4-dimensional Einstein equation reduces to an equation conformally related to the field equation for 2-dimensional gravity following from the Lagrangian L = R^(1/3). Solutions for 2-dimensional gravity…
