The scattering and bound states of the many-body systems, related to the short-range Dyson model, are studied. First, we show that the scattering states can be realized as coherent states and the scattering Hamiltonian can be connected to a…
Consider the three-body problem with an attractive $1/r^2$ potential. Modulo symmetries, the dynamics of the bounded zero-angular momentum solutions is equivalent to a geodesic flow on the thrice-punctured sphere, or ``pair of pants''. The…
This paper presents a study of the isosceles problem resulting by a perturbation of Euler's collinear solution under Newtonian gravitational attraction of three bodies in space. After the Hamiltonian was obtained, a circumference of…
We prove the existence of planar $D_n$--equivariant choreographies in the $n$--body problem with homogeneous potential of degree $-\alpha$, $0<\alpha<2$. Each body follows the same closed path, rotated and time-shifted, forming a…
A new method to derive presentations of skein modules is developed. For the case of homotopy skein modules it will be shown how the topology of a 3-manifold is reflected in the structure of the module. The freeness problem for q-homotopy…
We establish an equivalence between infinitely many asymptotically stable periodic solutions and subsumed homoclinic connections for $N$-dimensional piecewise-linear continuous maps. These features arise as a codimension-three phenomenon.…
A symmetric planar central configuration of the Newtonian six-body problem $x$ is called cross central configuration if there are precisely four bodies on a symmetry line of $x$. We use complex algebraic geometry and Groebner basis theory…
We simulate the self-propulsion of devices in a fluid in the regime of low Reynolds numbers. Each device consists of three bodies (spheres or capsules) connected with two damped harmonic springs. Sinusoidal driving forces compress the…
In this article, we derive a topological obstruction to the removal of a isolated degenerate complex tangent to an embedding of a 3-manifold into $\mathbb{C}^3$ (without affecting the structure of the remaining complex tangents). We…
We study an elementary problem of the topological robotics: collective motion of a set of $n$ distinct particles which one has to move from an initial configuration to a final configuration, with the requirement that no collisions occur in…
We study the contact geometry of the connected components of the energy hypersurface, in the symmetric restricted 3-body problem on $\mathbb{S}^2$, for a specific type of motion of the primaries. In particular, we show that these components…
We propose a closed-form (i.e. without expansion in the orbital eccentricities) scheme for computations in perturbation theory in the restricted three-body problem (R3BP) when the massless particle is in an orbit exterior to the one of the…
Three-body systems of scalar bosons are described in the framework of relativistic constraint dynamics. With help of a change of variables followed by a change of wave function, two redundant degrees of freedom get eliminated and the…
The plane case of central configurations with four different masses is analyzed theoretically and is computed numerically. We follow Dziobek's approach to four body central configurations with a direct implicit method of our own in which…
In this paper we consider the planar circular restricted three body problem (PCRTBP), which models the motion of a massless body under the attraction of other two bodies, the primaries, which describe circular orbits around their common…
In a preprint by Montgomery \cite{Mo99}, the author attempted to prove the existence of a shape space Figure-$8$ solution of the Newtonian three body problem with two equal masses (it looks like a figure $8$ in the shape space, which is…
In contact Hamiltonian systems, the so-called dissipated quantities are akin to conserved quantities in classical Hamiltonian systems. In this paper, we prove a Noether's theorem for non-autonomous contact Hamiltonian systems,…
Solution of the Dyson equation for the small-gap systems can be plagued by large non-converging iterations. In addition to the convergence issues, due to a high non-linearity, the Dyson equation may have multiple solutions. We apply the…
We discuss some properties of a model Hamiltonian for a system of three bosons interacting via zero-range forces in three dimensions. In order to avoid the well known instability phenomenon, we consider the so-called Minlos-Faddeev…
We study the equal-mass classical three rotor problem, a variant of the three body problem of celestial mechanics. The quantum $N$-rotor problem has been used to model chains of coupled Josephson junctions and also arises via a partial…
