In this article, we report on an exact closed-form solution for the displacement at the surface of an elastic half-space elicited by a buried point source that acts at some point underneath that surface. This is commonly referred to as the…
We compare three approaches to posing the index 3 set of differential algebraic equations (DAEs) associated with the constrained multibody dynamics problem formulated in absolute coordinates. The first approach works directly with the…
We report on figure-eight choreographic solutions to a system of three identical particles interacting through a potential of Lennard-Jones type, $1/r^{12}-1/r^6$ where $r$ is a distance between the particles. By numerical search, we found…
The relativistic two-body problem is considered for spinless particles subject to an external macroscopic electromagnetic field. When this field is made of the monochromatic superposition of two counter-propagating plane waves (and provided…
In the present paper, using the first-order approximation of the $n$-body Lagrangian (derived on the basis of the post-Newtonian gravitational theory of Einstein, Infeld, and Hoffman), we explicitly write down the equations of motion for…
The conservation of energy, linear momentum and angular momentum are important drivers for our physical understanding of the evolution of the Universe. These quantities are also conserved in Newton's laws of motion under gravity…
We study the problem of minimal resistance for a body moving with constant velocity in a rarefied medium of chaotically moving point particles, in Euclidean space R^d. The particles distribution over velocities is radially symmetric. Under…
We study the scattering of a particle from a bound pair in an effective field theory using a distorted-wave renormalisation group method to find the power-counting for the three-body force terms. We find that three-body terms appear at…
In this paper a symplectic realization for the Maxwell-Bloch equations with the rotating wave approximation is given, which also leads to a Lagrangian formulation. We show how Lie point symmetries generate a third constant of motion for the…
In this paper, we study the existence of non-planar periodic solutions for the following spatial restricted 3-body and 4-body problems: for $N=2 or 3$, given any masses $m_{1},...,m_{N}$, the mass points of $m_{1},...,m_{N}$ move on the $N$…
We obtain a new exact equilibrium solution to the N-body problem in a one-dimensional relativistic self-gravitating system. It corresponds to an expanding/contracting spacetime of a circle with N bodies at equal proper separations from one…
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…
The results of our study of the motion of a three particle, self-gravitating system in general relativistic lineal gravity is presented for an arbitrary ratio of the particle masses. We derive a canonical expression for the Hamiltonian of…
Solutions to the collinear three-body problem which do not end in triple collision pass through an infinite number of binary collisions. Given three masses, we show that four geometric quantities generate a finite description of itineraries…
This paper addresses the floating body problem which consists in studying the interaction of surface water waves with a floating body. We propose a new formulation of the water waves problem that can easily be generalized in order to take…
In a preprint by Montgomery \cite{Mo99}, the author attempted to prove the existence of a shape space Figure-$8$ solution of the Newtonian three body problem with two equal masses (it looks like a figure $8$ in the shape space, which is…
A simple rearrangement of the torque free motion Hamiltonian shapes it as a perturbation problem for bodies rotating close to the principal axis of maximum inertia, independently of their triaxiality. The complete reduction of the main part…

This work is devoted to the study of some exactly solvable quantum problems of four, five and six bodies moving on the line. We solve completely the corresponding stationary Schr\"odinger equation for these systems confined in an harmonic…
We consider the motion of point masses given by a natural extension of Newtonian gravitation to spaces of constant positive curvature. Our goal is to explore the spectral stability of tetrahedral orbits of the corresponding 4-body problem…
