We present a new symplectic integrator designed for collisional gravitational $N$-body problems which makes use of Kepler solvers. The integrator is also reversible and conserves 9 integrals of motion of the $N$-body problem to machine…
Hamiltonian systems are differential equations which describe systems in classical mechanics, plasma physics, and sampling problems. They exhibit many structural properties, such as a lack of attractors and the presence of conservation…

In this paper we show two examples of numerical orbital integrations (Planar Circular Restricted Three Body Problem) in which even though the conservation of Jacobi's constant is near to 1 part in 10e8, the integration proves to be wrong.…
To describe the ``slow'' motions of n interacting mass points, we give the most general 4-d non-instantaneous, non-particle symmetric Galilei-invariant variational principle. It involves two-body invariants constructed from particle…
Classical (maximal) superintegrable systems in $n$ dimensions are Hamiltonian systems with $2n-1$ independent constants of the motion, globally defined, the maximum number possible. They are very special because they can be solved…
Traditional numerical discretizations of conservative systems generically yield an artificial secular drift of any nonlinear invariants. In this work we present an explicit nontraditional algorithm that exactly conserves these invariants.…
We consider the numerical simulation of Hamiltonian systems of ordinary differential equations. Two features of Hamiltonian systems are that energy is conserved along trajectories and phase space volume is preserved by the flow. We want to…
We use Dirac's constraint dynamics to obtain a Hamiltonian formulation of the relativistic N-body problem in a separable two-body basis in which the particles interact pair-wise through scalar and vector interactions. The resultant N-body…

We generalize the Newtonian n-body problem to spaces of curvature k=constant, and study the motion in the 2-dimensional case. For k>0, the equations of motion encounter non-collision singularities, which occur when two bodies are antipodal.…
