We generalize the curved $N$-body problem to spheres and hyperbolic spheres whose curvature $\kappa$ varies in time. Unlike in the particular case when the curvature is constant, the equations of motion are non-autonomous. We first briefly…
Expressions for variables of the center of mass and relative motions for two-body system with different and equal masses in three-dimensional spaces of constant curvature are introduced in the terms of biquaternions. The problem of the…
This paper reports a detailed description of the equivalent linear two-body method for the many body problem, which is based on an approximate reduction of the many-body Schroedinger equation by the use of a variational principle. To test…
We show that a many-body Hamiltonian that corresponds to a system of fermions interacting through a pairing force is an integrable problem, i.e. it has as many constants of the motion as degrees of freedom. At the classical level this…
Leveraging on the results of arXiv:2210.13644 , we carry out an investigation of the algebraic three-fold $\Sigma_{C,h}$, the common level set of the Hamiltonian and the Casimir, for the two-body problem for equal masses on $S^2$ subject to…
Despite the huge number of research into the three-body problem in physics and mathematics, the study of this problem still remains relevant both from the point of view of its broad application and taking into account its fundamental…
We use a local scale invariance of a classical Hamiltonian and describe how to construct six different formulations of quantum mechanics in spaces with two time-like dimensions. All these six formulations have the same classical limit…
We extend a recent billiard model of the nuclear N-body Hamiltonian to consider a finite two-body interaction. This permits a treatment of the Hamiltonian by a mean field theory, and also allows the possibility to model reactions between…
We denote by $\mathbb{M}^2_R$ a two dimensional space of constant positive Gaussian curvature. With methods of M\"obius geometry and using the classification of the M\"obius group of automorphisms ${\rm \bf Mob}_2 \, (\hat{\mathbb{C}})$ of…
We provide the differential equations that generalize the Newtonian N-body problem of celestial mechanics to spaces of constant Gaussian curvature, k, for all k real. In previous studies, the equations of motion made sense only for k…
A nonlinear model of the quantum harmonic oscillator on two-dimensional spaces of constant curvature is exactly solved. This model depends of a parameter $\la$ that is related with the curvature of the space. Firstly the relation with other…
The classical two-body system with Lorentz-invariant Coulomb interaction V=-k/rho is solved in 3+1 dimensions using the manifestly covariant Hamiltonian mechanics of Stueckelberg. Particular solutions for the reduced motion are obtained…
We consider the quantum version of Arnold's generalisation of a rigid body in classical mechanics. Thus, we quantise the motion on an arbitrary Lie group manifold of a particle whose classical trajectories correspond to the geodesics of any…
In this article is given a simple expression for the \textit{ center of mass} for a system of material points in a two-dimensional surface of constant negative Gaussian curvature. Using basic techniques of Geometry, an expression in…
Weak-strong coupling duality relations are shown to be present in the quantum-mechanical many-body system with the interacting potential proportional to the pair-wise inverse-squared distance in addition to the harmonic potential. Using…
A surprising "duality" of the Newton equation with time-dependent forces and the stationary Schroedinger equation is discussed. Wide classes of exact solutions not known before for few-body Newton equations are generated directly from…
A summary is given of some results and perspectives of the hamiltonian ADM approach to 2+1 dimensional gravity. After recalling the classical results for closed universes in absence of matter we go over the the case in which matter is…
Free classical particles have well-defined momentum and position, while free quantum particles have well-defined momentum but a position fully delocalized over the sample volume. We develop a many-body formalism based on wave-packet…
We present a general approach for the solution of the three-body problem for a general interaction, and apply it to the case of the Coulomb interaction. This approach is exact, simple and fast. It makes use of integral equations derived…
It is evident that the positions of 4 bodies in $d>2$ dimensional space can be identified with vertices of a tetrahedron. Square of volume of the tetrahedron, weighted sum of squared areas of four facets and weighted sum of squared edges…
