We prove the non integrability of the colinear $3$ and $4$ body problem, for any masses positive masses. To deal with resistant cases, we present strong integrability criterions for $3$ dimensional homogeneous potentials of degree $-1$, and…
We consider the plane 3 body problem with 2 of the masses small. Periodic solutions with near collisions of small bodies were named by Poincar\'e second species periodic solutions. Such solutions shadow chains of collision orbits of 2…
An extension of Riewe's fractional Hamiltonian formulation is presented for fractional constrained systems. The conditions of consistency of the set of constraints with equations of motion are investigated. Three examples of fractional…
The reasons which restrict opportunities of classical mechanics at the description of nonequilibrium systems are discussed. The way of overcoming of the key restrictions is offered. This way is based on an opportunity of representation of…
In the context of the Newtonian N-body problem, we prove the existence of a partially hyperbolic motion with prescribed positive energy and any initial collisionless configuration. Moreover, it is a free time minimizer of the respective…
This work is devoted to the study of some exactly solvable quantum problems of four, five and six bodies moving on the line. We solve completely the corresponding stationary Schr\"odinger equation for these systems confined in an harmonic…
We analyze constrained quantum systems where the dynamics do not preserve the constraints. This is done in particular for the restriction of a quantum particle in Euclidean n-space to a curved submanifold, and we propose a method of…
We report on the results of a study of the motion of a four particle non-relativistic one-dimensional self-gravitating system. We show that the system can be visualized in terms of a single particle moving within a potential whose…
We study confined solutions of certain evolutionary partial differential equations (pde) in 1+1 space-time. The pde we study are Lie-Poisson Hamiltonian systems for quadratic Hamiltonians defined on the dual of the Lie algebra of vector…
We introduce a class of examples which provide an affine generalization of the nonholonomic problem of a convex body rolling without slipping on the plane. We investigate dynamical aspects of the system such as existence of first integrals,…
We consider a simple motivating example of a non-Hamiltonian dynamical system with time-dependent constraints obtained by imposing rheonomic non-integrable Bilimovich's constraint on a freely rotating rigid body. Dynamics of this…
Relativistic action-at-a-distance theories with interactions that propagate at the speed of light in vacuum are investigated. We consider the most general action depending on the velocities and relative positions of the particles. The…
The essentially unique reduction of the Euler-Poinsot problem may be performed in different sets of variables. Action-angle variables are usually preferred because of their suitability for approaching perturbed rigid-body motion. But they…
We consider a viscoelastic body occupying a smooth bounded domain of $R^3$ under the effects of volumic traction forces. Inertial effects are considered: hence, the equation describing the evolution of displacements is of the second order…
Much of standard galaxy dynamics rests on the implicit assumption that the corresponding N-body problem is (near) integrable. This notion although leading to great simplification is by no means a fact. It is therefore important to develop…
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…
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…
The classical Euler--Poinsot case of the rigid body dynamics admits a class of simple but non-trivial integrable generalizations, which modify the Poisson equations describing the motion of the body in space. These generalizations possess…
We provide the differential equations that generalize the Newtonian N-body problem of celestial mechanics to spaces of constant Gaussian curvature, k, for all k real. In previous studies, the equations of motion made sense only for k…
We study a system of partial differential equations with integer and fractional derivatives arising in the study of forced oscillatory motion of a viscoelastic rod. We propose a new approach considering a quotient of relations appearing in…
