We present a computer assisted proof of the full listing of central configurations for spatial n-body problem for n = 5 and 6, with equal masses. For each central configuration we give a full list of its euclidean symmetries. For all masses…

For the power-law potential $n$-body problem, we study a special kind of central configurations where all the masses lie on a circle and the center of mass coincides with the center of the circle. It is also called the centered co-circular…

This research investigates centered co-circular central configurations in the general power-law potential $n$-body problem. Firstly, there are no such configurations when all masses are equal, except for two; secondly, unless all masses are…

We construct explicit examples of really perverse central configurations in the spatial Newtonian $N$-body problem. A central configuration is called really perverse if it satisfies the central configuration equations for two distinct mass…

We give a computer assisted proof of the full listing of central configuration for $n$-body problem for Newtonian potential on the plane for $n=5,6,7$ with equal masses. We show all these central configurations have a reflective symmetry…

This paper examines the existence of centered co-circular central configurations in the general power-law potential n-body problem. We prove the nonexistence of such configurations when the system consists of n-3 equal masses and three…

Central configurations and relative equilibria are an important facet of the study of the $N$-body problem, but become very difficult to rigorously analyze for $N>3$. In this paper we focus on a particular but interesting class of…

We study the bifurcations of central configurations of the Newtonian four-body problem when some of the masses are equal. First, we continue numerically the solutions for the equal mass case, and we find values of the mass parameter at…

We study central configurations lying on a common circle in the Newtonian four-body problem. Using a topological argument we prove that there is at most one co-circular central configuration for each cyclic ordering of the masses on the…

We consider the $N$-body problem of celestial mechanics in spaces of nonzero constant curvature. Using the concept of locked inertia tensor, we compute the moment of inertia for systems moving on spheres and hyperbolic spheres and show that…

In this study, we present a rigorous analytical proof of the uniqueness of central configurations for the five-body problem, assuming that all five masses are equal and positioned at the vertices of a planar polygon. We consider…

In this paper,we study spatial central configurations where N bodies are at the vertices of a regular N-gon $T$ and the other 4 bodies are symmetrically located on the straight line that is perpendicular to the plane that contains $T$ and…

The plane case of central configurations with four different masses is analyzed theoretically and is computed numerically. We follow Dziobek's approach to four body central configurations with a direct implicit method of our own in which…

In this paper we discuss the central configurations of the Trapezoidal four-body Problem. We consider four point masses on the vertices of an isosceles trapezoid with two equal masses $m_1=m_4$ at positions $(\mp 0.5, r_B)$ and $m_2=m_3$ at…

We establish the existence of a single-parameter family of the concave kite central configurations in the 4-body problem with two pairs of equal masses. In such configurations, one pair of the masses must lie on the base of an isosceles…

We study the planar symmetric central configurations of the $1+4$-body problem where the symmetry axis does not contain any infinitesimal masses. Under certain assumptions we find analytically some central configurations, and also get some…

In this paper we present a complete classification of the isolated central configurations of the five-body problem with equal masses. This is accomplished by using the polyhedral homotopy method to approximate all the isolated solutions of…

Two numerical algorithms for analyzing planar central and balanced configurations in the $(n+1)$-body problem with a small mass are presented. The first one relies on a direct solution method of the $(n+1)$-body problem by using a…

We study central configurations of the Newtonian four-body problem that form a trapezoid. Using a topological argument we prove that there is at most one trapezoidal central configuration for each cyclic ordering of the masses.

We study four-body central configurations with one pair of opposite sides parallel. We use a novel constraint to write the central configuration equations in this special case, using distances as variables. We prove that, for a given…
