A new coordinate system is defined for the Four-Body dynamical problem with general masses, having as its origin of coordinates the center of mass. The transformation from the inertial coordinate system involves a combination of a rotation…
Consider the spatial Newtonian three body problem at fixed negative energy and fixed angular momentum. The moment of inertia $I$ provides a measure of the overall size of a three-body system. We will prove that there is a positive number…

This is a natural continuation of our first paper \cite{pre}, where we develop a new geometrical technique which allow us to study relative equilibria on the two sphere. We consider a system of three positive masses on $\mathbb{S}^2$ moving…
Why would anyone wish to generalize the already unappetizing subject of rigid body motion to an arbitrary number of dimensions? At first sight, the subject seems to be both repellent and superfluous. The author will try to argue that an…
In Einstein's equation we suggest a geometrical object substituting the tensor of energy of impulse and tension. The obtained equation, together with the equation for external field, makes up the complete problem of mathematical equations…
We consider the classical 3-body system with $d$ degrees of freedom $(d>1)$ at zero total angular momentum. The study is restricted to potentials $V$ that depend solely on relative (mutual) distances $r_{ij}=\mid {\bf r}_i - {\bf r}_j\mid$…

Using a variational method, we exhibit a surprisingly simple periodic orbit for the newtonian problem of three equal masses in the plane. The orbit has zero angular momentum and a very rich symmetry pattern. Its most surprising feature is…
We formulate equations of motion and conservation laws for a quantum many-body system in a co-moving Lagrangian reference frame. It is shown that generalized inertia forces in the co-moving frame are described by Green's deformation tensor…
The oscillator bases expansion stands as an efficient approximation method for the time-independent Schr\"odinger equation. The method, originally formulated with one non-linear variational parameter, can be extended to incorporate two such…
We propose a set of variables of the general three-body problem both for two-dimensional and three-dimensional cases. Variables are $(\lambda,\theta,\Lambda, \Theta,k,\omega)$ or equivalently $(\lambda,\theta,L,\dot{I},k,\omega)$ for the…
It is well known that a rotation of a free generic three-dimensional rigid body is stationary if and only if it is a rotation around one of three principal axes of inertia. As it was noted by many authors, the analogous result is true for a…
The 3-dimensional coherence matrix is interpreted by emphasising its invariance with respect to spatial rotations. Under these transformations, it naturally decomposes into a real symmetric positive definite matrix, interpreted as the…
