Using the post-Newtonian effective field theory (PN-EFT) formalism for spinning gravitating bodies, we derive the next-to-leading-order (NLO) spin-orbit potential and Hamiltonian for a system of N spinning bodies in general relativity. This…

There are periodic solutions to the equal-mass three-body (and N-body) problem in Newtonian gravity. The figure-eight solution is one of them. In this paper, we discuss its solution in the first and second post-Newtonian approximations to…

We study the dynamics of particles coupled to gravity in (2 + 1) dimensions. Using the ADM formalism, we derive the general Hamiltonian for an N-body system and analyze the dynamics of a two-particle system. Non-linear terms are found up to…

We build an effective-one-body (EOB) Hamiltonian at third post-Newtonian (3PN) order in scalar-tensor (ST) and Einstein-scalar-Gauss-Bonnet (ESGB) theories of gravity. The latter is an extension of general relativity that predicts scalar…
