We propose a survey of Michel H\'enon works devoted to studying periodic solutions of the well-known celestial mechanics problem -- restricted three-body problem. The description of the main results obtained by H\'enon is given in…
The elliptic restricted three body problem has been well studied. However, the previous formulations of the problem have used a rotating coordinate system to keep the positions of the primary and secondary on the x-axis. This requires the…
We show that a hypersurface of the regularized, spatial circular restricted three-body problem is of contact type whenever the energy level is below the first critical value (the energy level of the first Lagrange point) or if the energy…

We present a global analysis of the center manifold of the collinear points in the circular restricted three-body problem. The phase-space structure is provided by a family of resonant 2-DOF Hamiltonian normal forms. The near 1:1…
We derive the closed form solutions for the surface area, the capacitance and the demagnetizing factors of the ellipsoid immersed in the Euclidean space R^3. The exact solutions for the above geometrical and physical properties of the…
Following on from ``Hyperbolic Plateau problems'' (by the same author), we provide a complete geometric description of solutions to the Plateau problem $(S,\phi)$ when $S$ is a compact Riemann surface with a finite number of points removed.
Suppose that the initial triangle formed by the three moving masses of the three-body problem is similar to the triangle formed at some later time. We derive a simple integral formula for the overall rotation relating the two triangles. The…
We show that the planar circular restricted three body problem is of restricted contact type for all energies below the first critical value (action of the first Lagrange point) and for energies slightly above it. This opens up the…
We study the contact geometry of the connected components of the energy hypersurface, in the symmetric restricted 3-body problem on $\mathbb{S}^2$, for a specific type of motion of the primaries. In particular, we show that these components…
We consider the Cahn-Hilliard equation with constant mobility and logarithmic potential on a two-dimensional evolving closed surface embedded in $\mathbb R^3$, as well as a related weighted model. The well-posedness of weak solutions for…
We perform an analytical study of the bifurcation of the halo orbits around the collinear points $L_1$, $L_2$, $L_3$ for the circular, spatial, restricted three--body problem. Following a standard procedure, we reduce to the center manifold…
The Circle Pattern Theorem characterizes the existence and rigidity of circle patterns with prescribed intersection angles on simplicial triangulations of closed surfaces. In this paper we extend the theorem to quasi-simplicial…
The planar circular restricted three body problem (PCRTBP) is symmetric with respect to the line of masses and there is a corresponding anti-symplectic involution on the cotangent bundle of the 2-sphere in the regularized PCRTBP. Recently…
The bending energy of any freely deformable closed surface is quadratic in its curvature. In the absence of constraints, it will be minimized when the surface adopts the form of a round sphere. If the surface is confined within a…
We construct embedded closed minimal surfaces in the round three-sphere, resembling two parallel copies of the Clifford torus, joined by m^2 small catenoidal bridges symmetrically arranged along a square lattice of points on the torus.
