A 3D-dynamical model is constructed for the study of motion in the central regions of a disk galaxy with a double nucleus. Using the results of the 2D-model, we find the regions of initial conditions in the (x,px,z,py)=EJ, (y=pz=0) phase…
We study the geodesic motion of test particles in the space-time of non-compact boson stars. These objects are made of a self-interacting scalar field and -- depending on the scalar field's mass -- can be as dense as neutron stars or even…
The dynamics of charged particles moving around a Kerr-Newman black hole surrounded by cloud strings, quintessence and electromagnetic field is integrable due to the presence of a fourth constant of motion like the Carter constant. The…

Complete integrability of geodesic motion, the well known feature of the fields of isolated stationary black holes, can easily be "spoilt" by the presence of some additional source (even if highly symmetric). In previous papers, we used…
The existence, radii and radial stability of the equatorial and non-equatorial (particularly, the polar) spherical orbits are discussed for particles with different conserved energy. The radii of these orbits generally are solutions of a…
It is shown that the scattering of a charged test particle by a system of four extreme Reissner-Nordtr\"om black holes is chaotic in some cases. The fractal structure of the scattering angle and time delay functions is another manifestation…
The stability of the dynamical trajectories of softened spherical gravitational systems is examined, both in the case of the full $N$-body problem and that of trajectories moving in the gravitational field of non-interacting background…

We present the exact solutions of the homoclinic orbits for the timelike geodesics of the particle on the general nonequatorial orbits in the Kerr-Newman black holes. The homoclinic orbit is the separatrix between bound and plunging…
A recently proposed test for chaos [Gottwald G A and Melbourne I 2004 \textit{Proc. R. Soc. London A} {\bf 460} 603-611] is employed to probe the Hamiltonian dynamics of a one-dimensional anharmonic oscillator lattice. For a homogeneous…
A small deformation controlled by four free parameters to the Schwarzschild metric could be referred to a nonspinning black hole solution in alternative theories of gravity. Because such a non-Schwarzschild metric can be changed into a…
