We show the existence of some infinite families of periodic solutions of the planar Newtonian n-body problem --with positive masses-- which are symmetric with respect to suitable actions of finite groups (under a strong--force assumption,…
General properties of the three-body problem in a model of modified dynamics are investigated. It is shown that the three-body problem in this model shares some characters with the similar problem in Newtonian dynamics. Moreover, the planar…
We present the results of a numerical search for periodic orbits with zero angular momentum in the Newtonian planar three-body problem with equal masses focused on a narrow search window bracketing the figure-eight initial conditions. 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.…
In this paper we characterize all the solutions of the three body problem on which one body with mass $m_1$ remains in a fixed line and the other two bodies have the same mass $m_2$. We show that all the solutions with negative total energy…
We investigate the secular dynamics of three-body circumbinary systems under the effect of tides. We use the octupolar non-restricted approximation for the orbital interactions, general relativity corrections, the quadrupolar approximation…
We consider the Earth-Moon planar circular restricted three body problem and present a proof of the existence orbits, which approach arbitrarily close to one of the primary masses, and at the same time after each approach they move away…

We study orbits near collision in a non-autonomous restricted planar four-body problem. This restricted problem consists of a massless particle moving under the gravitational influence due to three bodies following the figure-eight…
In the past two decades, since the discovery of the figure-8 orbit by Chenciner and Montgomery, the variational method has became one of the most popular tools for constructing new solutions of the $N$-body problem and its extended…
Within the solar system, approximate realizations of the three-body problem occur when a comet approaches a planet while being affected mainly by such a planet and the Sun, and this configuration was investigated by Tisserand within the…
Consider the time-periodic flow of an incompressible viscous fluid past a body performing a rigid motion with non-zero translational and rotational velocity. We introduce a framework of homogeneous Sobolev spaces that renders the resolvent…
We study a 2+2 body problem introduced in a previous paper as the circular double Sitnikov problem. Since the secondary bodies are moving on the same perpendicular line where evolve the primaries, almost every solution is a collision orbit.…
This work considers the {\em gravitational} $N$-body problem and introduces global time-renormalization {\em functions} that allow the efficient numerical integration with fixed time-steps. First, a lower bound of the radius of convergence…
We consider a restricted four-body problem with a precise hierarchy between the bodies: two point-mass bigger bodies, a smaller one with oblate shape, and an infinitesimal body in the neighborhood of the oblate body. The three heavy bodies…
Suppose that the initial triangle formed by the three moving masses of the three-body problem is similar to the triangle formed at some later time. We derive a simple integral formula for the overall rotation relating the two triangles. The…
The three-body general problem is formulated as a problem of geodesic trajectories flows on the Riemannian manifold. It is proved that a curved space with local coordinate system allows to detect new hidden symmetries of the internal motion…
A solution of the n-body problem in R^d is a relative equilibrium if all of the mutual distance between the bodies are constant. In other words, the bodies undergo a rigid motion. Here we investigate the possibility of partially rigid…
We have examined the stability of collinear in Robes's generalised restricted three body problem. The problem is generalised in the sense that more massive primary has been taken as an oblate spheroid. We have found the position of…
The equations of the restricted three-body problem describe the motion of a massless particle under the influence of two primaries of masses $1-\mu$ and $\mu$, $0\leq \mu \leq 1/2$, that circle each other with period equal to $2\pi$. When…
