Here I give a description of Alexandrov 4-point comparison via quadratic forms and then propose a natural 5-point condition which might have some future. Consider this note as a letter from me --- do not take it seriously.
The Lagrange point $L_1$ for the Sun-Earth system is considered due to its special importance for the scientific community for the design of space missions. The location of the Lagrangian points with the trajectories and stability regions…
We consider the Newtonian 5-body problem in the plane, where 4 bodies have the same mass m, which is small compared to the mass M of the remaining body. We consider the (normalized) relative equilibria in this system, and follow them to the…
We calculate the location and stability of the L_4 and L_5 Lagrange equilibrium points in the circular restricted three-body problem as the binary system evolves via gravitational radiation losses. Relative to the purely Newtonian case, we…
A quasi-equilibrium problem is an equilibrium problem where the constraint set does depend on the reference point. It generalizes important problems such as quasi-variational inequalities and generalized Nash equilibrium problems. We study…
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…
In this paper, extending the work of Gal'perin (Comm. Math. Phys. 154: 63-84, 1993), we investigate generalizations of the concepts of centroids and static equilibrium points of a convex body in spherical, hyperbolic and normed spaces. In…
It is well known that gravity in 2+1 dimensions can be recast as Chern-Simons theory, with the gauge group given by the local isometry group, depending on the metric signature and the cosmological constant. Point particles are added into…
We consider a curved Sitnikov problem, in which an infinitesimal particle moves on a circle under the gravitational influence of two equal masses in Keplerian motion within a plane perpendicular to that circle. There are two equilibrium…
In the Newtonian 3-body problem, for any choice of the three masses, there are exactly three Euler configurations (also known as the three Euler points). In Helmholtz' problem of 3 point vortices in the plane, there are at most three…
This study presents a study of equilibrium points, periodic orbits, stabilities, and manifolds in a rotating plane symmetric potential field. It has been found that the dynamical behaviour near equilibrium points is completely determined by…
The relevant quasipotential near an equilibrium point is determined by a new linear matrix equation, with less unknowns than an existing (possibly nonlinear) one. This also assures the asymptotic fulfillment of the Fokker-Planck equation,…
The relative equilibria for the spherical, finite density 3 body problem are identified. Specifically, there are 28 distinct relative equilibria in this problem which include the classical 5 relative equilibria for the point-mass 3-body…
We study the role of the unstable equilibrium points in the transfer of matter in a galaxy using the potential of a rotating triaxial system. In particular, we study the neighbourhood of these points for energy levels and for main model…
We represent the first investigation of pole-skipping on both the gravity and field theory sides. In contrast to the higher dimensional models, there is no momentum degree of freedom in $(1+1)-$dimensional bulk theory. Thus, we then…
We shall describe a new construction of equilibrium states for a class of partially hyperbolic systems. This generalises our construction for Gibbs measures in the uniformly hyperbolic setting. This more general setting introduces new…
An intriguing open problem in general relativity is whether a stationary equilibrium configuration of multiple, physically relevant black holes can exist. In such a hypothetical setup, the gravitational attraction would need to be balanced…
The stability and topological structure of equilibrium points in the potential field of the asteroid 101955 Bennu have been investigated with a variable density and rotation period. A dimensionless quantity is introduced for the…
We investigate the problem of determining the shape of a rotating celestial object - e.g., a comet or an asteroid - under its own gravitational field. More specifically, we consider an object symmetric with respect to one axis - such as a…
The model of nonrelativistic particles coupled to nonstandard (2+1)-gravity [1] is extended to include Abelian or non-Abelian charges coupled to Chern-Simons gauge fields. Equivalently, the model may be viewed as describing the (Abelian or…
