We consider the problem of packing congruent circles with the maximum radius in a unit square as a mathematical optimization problem. Due to the presence of non-overlapping constraints, this problem is a notoriously difficult nonconvex…
The simplest non-collision solutions of the N-body problem are the "relative equilibria", in which each body follows a circular orbit around the centre of mass and the shape formed by the N bodies is constant. It is easy to see that the…
We provide a class of orbits in the curved N-body problem for which no point that could play the role of the centre of mass is fixed or moves uniformly along a geodesic. This proves that the equations of motion lack centre-of-mass and…
In the $2$-dimensional $n$-body problem, $n\ge 3$, in spaces of constant curvature, $\kappa\ne 0$, we study polygonal homographic solutions. We first provide necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of these orbits and then…
In this paper we consider the collision of black holes with parallel spins using first order perturbation theory of rotating black holes (Teukolsky formalism). The black holes are assumed to be close to each other, initially non boosted and…
The problem of nonintegrability of the circular restricted three-body problem is very classical and important in the theory of dynamical systems. It was partially solved by Poincare in the nineteenth century: He showed that there exists no…
A pseudo-Newtonian Hill problem based on a potential proposed by Artemova et al. [Astroph. J. 461 (1996) 565] is presented. This potential reproduces some of the general relativistic effects due to the spin angular momentum of the bodies,…
Say that a subset S of the plane is a "circle-center set" if S is not a subset of a line, and whenever we choose three noncollinear points from S, the center of the unique circle through those three points is also an element of S. A problem…
Rapidly rotating bodies moving in curved space-time experience the so-called spin-curvature force, which becomes important for the motion of compact objects in gravitational-wave inspirals. As a first approximation, this effect is captured…
The static n-body problem of General Relativity states that there are, under a reasonable energy condition, no static $n$-body configurations for $n > 1$, provided the configuration of the bodies satisfies a suitable separation condition.…
We consider the planar circular equilateral restricted four body-problem where a test particle of infinitesimal mass is moving under the gravitational attraction of three primary bodies which move on circular orbits around their common…
Existence and uniqueness of mass-conserving classical solutions to the continuous coagulation equation with collisional breakage are investigated for an unbounded class of collision kernels and a particular case of the distribution…
We propose a conjecture for the limit of mean-field spin glasses with a bipartite structure, and show that the conjectured limit is an upper bound. The conjectured limit is described in terms of the solution of an infinite-dimensional…
We analyze in this paper the existence of the "out-of-plane" equilibrium points in the restricted three-body problem with oblateness. From the series expansion of the potential function of an oblate asteroid, we show analytically all…
We study central configurations lying on a common circle in the Newtonian four-body problem. Using a topological argument we prove that there is at most one co-circular central configuration for each cyclic ordering of the masses on the…
Motion of a cylinder dynamically interacting with n point vortices in a perfect fluid is considered. A nonliniear Poisson structure and two integrals of motion are found. The equations of motion a priori are not Hamiltonian. For n=1, the…
A new solution for the stationary closed world with rigid rotation is obtained for the spinning fluid source. It is found that the spin and vorticity are locally balanced. This model qualitatively shows that the local rotation of the…
We examined the asymmetric deformation in collisions and the transition conditions from oblique to normal collisions and non-collisions to address the problem of oblique collisions of rigid bodies in classical mechanics. A closed solution…
One and two-electron systems confined in a single and coupled quantum dots defined within a nanowire with a finite radius are studied in the context of spin-orbit coupling effects. Anisotropy of the spin-orbit interaction is discussed in…
It is shown that the phenomenon of irreversibility in many-body and few-body systems can be explained and described within the framework of the concept of direct (not instantaneous) interaction of particles without using probabilistic…
