Planet-forming discs often contain structures like spiral arms, typically linked to the disc's gravitational forces. In 2D models, an ad hoc softening prescription is commonly used for self-gravity, but this overlooks the vertical…

The secular Laplace-Lagrange orbital solution, decomposing eccentricities into a set of uniformly precessing eigenmodes is a classical result that is typically solved numerically. However, in the limit where orbits are closely spaced,…
An eccentric, unequal-mass binary induces forced eccentricity in a circumbinary disk through the non-axisymmetric component of its gravitational potential. Building on the theory of free (i.e., unforced) eccentric modes, we develop a…

We investigate the gravitational potentials generated by axisymmetric, razor-thin disks. Within certain limitations, the potential on one side of the disk is shown to be equivalent to the potential produced by a linear mass distribution…
It is known that gap opening depends on the disc's viscosity; however, eccentricity damping formulas have only been derived at high viscosities, ignoring partial gap opening. We aim at obtaining a simple formula to model $e$-damping of the…
We consider the precession rates of eccentric discs in close binaries, and compare theoretical predictions with the results of numerical disc simulations and with observed superhump periods. A simple dynamical model for precession is found…
