A generalization of classical dimensional analysis, presented in a separate article, makes it possible to derive Kepler's third law for the period of a two-body system, up to a multiplicative constant, without solving the equations of…

Why would anyone wish to generalize the already unappetizing subject of rigid body motion to an arbitrary number of dimensions? At first sight, the subject seems to be both repellent and superfluous. The author will try to argue that an…

The three-body problem is reexamined in the framework of general relativity. The Newtonian three-body problem admits Euler's collinear solution, where three bodies move around the common center of mass with the same orbital period and…

In this article, I discuss the motion of $N$ point masses in non-relativistic mechanics, when the interaction between them is purely the Newtonian gravitational interaction, with $N$ greater than or equal to 2. The dynamical equations of…

We revisit the r\^{o}le of discreteness and chaos in the dynamics of self-gravitating systems by means of $N$-body simulations with active and frozen potentials, starting from spherically symmetric stationary states and considering the…

We consider Schrodinger equations for a non-relativistic particle obeying N+1-th order higher derivative classical equation of motion. These equations are invariant under N(odd)-extended Galilean conformal (NGC) algebras in general d+1…

The global rotational degrees of freedom in the Schr\"{o}dinger equation for an $N$-body system are completely separated from the internal ones. After removing the motion of center of mass, we find a complete set of $(2\ell+1)$ independent…

We demonstrate how to separate the rotational degrees of freedom in a quantum N-body problem completely from the internal ones. It is shown that any common eigenfunction of the total orbital angular momentum ($\ell$) and the parity in the…

We consider three-body systems in two dimensions with zero-range interactions for general masses and interaction strengths. The momentum-space Schr\"odinger equation is solved numerically and in the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) approximation. The…

The problem of three particles interacting through harmonic forces is discussed within the Newtonian formalism. By means of a didactic approach, an exact analytical solution is found, and ways to extend it to the N-body case are pointed…
