The classical two-body system with Lorentz-invariant Coulomb interaction V=-k/rho is solved in 3+1 dimensions using the manifestly covariant Hamiltonian mechanics of Stueckelberg. Particular solutions for the reduced motion are obtained…
Let $C$ be a smooth projective curve defined over $\Qbar$, let $\pi:\mathcal{E}\lra C$ be an elliptic surface and let $\sigma_{P_1},\sigma_{P_2},\sigma_{Q}$ be sections of $\pi$ (corresponding to points $P_1,P_2, Q$ of the generic fiber $E$…

We establish blow-up profiles for any blowing-up sequence of solutions of general conformally invariant fully nonlinear elliptic equations on Euclidean domains. We prove that (i) the distance between blow-up points is bounded from below by…
In this paper, a Hamiltonian mean field model with long-range four-body interactions is proposed. The model describes a long-range mean-field system in which N unit-mass particles move on a unit circle. Each particle theta_i interacts with…
We develop a coarse-graining procedure for two-dimensional models of fluctuating loops by mapping them to interface models. The result is an effective field theory for the scaling limit of loop models, which is found to be a Liouville…
Under the general hypotheses of locality, smoothness of interactions in the coupling constant, Poincare invariance, Lorentz covariance, and preservation of the number of derivatives on each field, we investigate the cross-couplings of one…
We introduce suitable coordinate systems for interacting many-body systems with invariant manifolds. These are Cartesian in coordinate and momentum space and chosen such that several components are identically zero for motion on the…
For any $N\geq 3$, we study invariant measures of the dynamics of $N$ hard spheres whose centres are constrained to lie on a line. In particular, we study the invariant submanifold $\mathcal{M}$ of the tangent bundle of the hard sphere…
A Hamiltonian system is completely integrable (in the sense of Liouville) if there exist as many independent integrals of motion in involution as the dimension of the configuration space. Under certain regularity conditions,…
Consider n=2l>=4 point particles with equal masses in space, subject to the following symmetry constraint: at each instant they form an orbit of the dihedral group D_l, where D_l is the group of order 2l generated by two rotations of angle…
This paper treats the global existence question for a collection of general relativistic collisionless particles, all having the same mass. The spacetimes considered are globally hyperbolic, with Cauchy surface a 3-torus. Furthermore, the…
The relationship between natural orbitals, one-body coherences and two-body correlations is explored for bosonic many-body systems of definite parity with two occupied single-particle states. We show that the strength of local two-body…
