An approach is developed to find approximate solutions to the restricted circular three body problem. The solution is useful in approximately describing the position vectors of three spherically symmetric masses, one of which has a much…
The restricted (equilateral) four-body problem consists of three bodies of masses m1, m2 and m3 (called primaries) lying in a Lagrangian config- uration of the three-body problem, i,e,. they remain fixed at the apices of an equilateral…
A new approach to the construction of difference schemes of any order for the many-body problem that preserves all its algebraic integrals is proposed. We introduced additional variables, namely, distances and reciprocal distances between…
In this paper, we consider the interactions between a rigid body of general form and the incompressible perfect fluid surrounding it. Local well-posedness in the space $C([0, T); H_s)$ is obtained for the fluid-rigid body system.
An action minimizing path between two given configurations, spatial or planar, of the $n$-body problem is always a true -- collision-free -- solution. Based on a remarkable idea of Christian Marchal, this theorem implies the existence of…
The Lagrangian, the Hamiltonian and the constant of motion of the gravitational attraction of two bodies when one of them has variable mass is considered. The relative and center of mass coordinates are not separated, and choosing the…
We aim at the stability of time-dependent motions, such as time-periodic ones, of a rigid body in a viscous fluid filling the exterior to it in 3D. The fluid motion obeys the incompressible Navier-Stokes system, whereas the motion of the…
The work deals with the existence of solutions of a certain system of quadratic integral equations in H^2(R^d,R^N), d = 2, 3. We demonstrate the existence of a perturbed solution by virtue of a fixed point technique.
We prove that any finite collection of polygons of equal area has a common hinged dissection. That is, for any such collection of polygons there exists a chain of polygons hinged at vertices that can be folded in the plane continuously…
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…
For the three-body problem, we consider the Lagrange stability. To analyze the stability, along with integrals of energy and angular momentum, we use relations by the author from Sosnitskii (2005), which band together separately squared…
We consider the 4-body problem in spaces of constant curvature and study the existence of spherical and hyperbolic rectangular solutions, i.e. equiangular quadrilateral motions on spheres and hyperbolic spheres. We focus on relative…
We study aspects of the quantum and classical dynamics of a $3$-body system in 3D space with interaction depending only on mutual distances. The study is restricted to solutions in the space of relative motion which are functions of mutual…
We consider a rigid body freely moving in a compressible inviscid fluid within a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. The fluid is thereby governed by the non necessarily isentropic compressible Euler equations, while the rigid body…
We discuss the equilibrium conditions for a body made of two homogeneous components separated by oblate spheroidal surfaces and in relative motion. While exact solutions are not permitted for rigid rotation (unless a specific ambient…
When we use variational methods to study the Newtonian $N$-body problem, the main problem is how to avoid collisions. C.Marchal got a remarkable result, that is, a path minimizing the Lagrangian action functional between two given…
A Hamiltonian that approaches the study of the three-body problem in general relativity is obtained. We use it to study the relativistic version of the circular restricted three-body problem in which the first body is the heaviest and the…
We consider the solid-solid interactions in the two body problem. The relative equilibria have been previously studied analytically and general motions were numerically analyzed using some expansion of the gravitational potential up to the…
