The search of high-order periodic orbits has been typically restricted to problems with symmetries that help to reduce the dimension of the search space. Well-known examples include reversible maps with symmetry lines. The present work…
A novel approximation method in studying the perihelion precession and planetary orbits in general relativity is to use geodesic deviation equations of first and high-orders, proposed by Kerner et.al. Using higher-order geodesic deviation…
In this paper, we continue our study of the motion of spinning test bodies orbiting Kerr black holes. Non-spinning test bodies follow geodesics of the spacetime in which they move. A test body's spin couples to the curvature of that…

Let G be a connected real reductive group. Orbit integrals define traces on the group algebra of G. We introduce a construction of higher orbit integrals in the direction of higher cyclic cocycles on the Harish-Chandra Schwartz algebra of…
We present numerical results and computer assisted proofs of the existence of periodic orbits for the Kuramoto-Sivashinky equation. These two results are based on writing down the existence of periodic orbits as zeros of functionals. This…
The orbital solutions for astrometric (unresolved) binary stars provided in the Gaia mission Data Release 3 reveal an obvious deficit of face-on orbits with line-of-sight inclinations close to 0 or $\pi$. This is shown to be an intrinsic…
We prove a general theorem on the existence of heteroclinic orbits in Hilbert spaces, and present a method to reduce the solutions of some P.D.E. problems to such orbits. In our first application, we give a new proof in a slightly more…
Very large mass ratio binary black hole systems are of interest both as a clean limit of the two-body problem in general relativity, as well as for their importance as sources of low-frequency gravitational waves. At lowest order, the…
A unified analytical solution is presented for constructing the phase space near collinear libration points in the Circular Restricted Three-body Problem (CRTBP), encompassing Lissajous orbits and quasihalo orbits, their invariant…
Orbital motion of a body can be found from Newtonian equation of motion. However, it is useful to express the motion through time derivatives of Keplerian orbital elements, mainly if the motion is perturbed by small perturbing force. The…
The discovery of interstellar interlopers such as 1I/`Oumuamua, 2I/Borisov, and 3I/ATLAS have highlighted the necessity of understanding the dynamical pathways that eject small bodies from planetary systems into hyperbolic trajectories. In…
In this investigation we treat a special configuration of two celestial bodies in 1:1 mean motion resonance namely the so-called exchange orbits. There exist -- at least -- theoretically -- two different types: the exchange-a orbits and the…
We consider the problem of orbital stability of the motion of a test particle in the restricted three-body problem, by using the orbital moment and its time derivative. We show that it is possible to get some insight into the stability…
Autonomous orbit determination via integration of epoch-differenced gravity gradients and starlight refraction is proposed in this paper for low-Earth-orbiting satellites operating in GPS-denied environments. The starlight refrac-tion can…

It is attempted to obtain the masses of the celestial bodies, the initial conditions of their motion, and the constant of gravitation, by a global parameter optimization. First, a numerical solution of the N-bodies problem for mass points…
Numerical integrations of the Solar System have been carried out for decades. Their results have been used, for example, to determine whether the Solar System is chaotic, whether Mercury's orbit is stable, or to help discern Earth's climate…
In this work, we perform a first study of basic invariant sets of the spatial Hill's four-body problem, where we have used both analytical and numerical approaches. This system depends on a mass parameter mu in such a way that the classical…
