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…

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 problem of planar central configurations with $N$ heavy bodies and $k$ bodies with arbitrary small masses. We derive the equation which describe the limit of light masses going to zero, which can be seen as the equation for…

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…

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…

For planar ($N$+1)-body ($N$\,$\geq$ 2) problem with a regular $N$-polygon, under the assumption that the ($N$+1)-th body locates at the geometric center of the regular $N$-polygon, we obtain the sufficient and necessary conditions that the…

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 give rise to self-similar solutions to the Newtonian $N$-body problem, and play important roles in understanding its complicated dynamics. Even the simple question of whether or not there are finitely many planar…

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…

The relative equilibria of planar Newtonian $N$-body problem become coorbital around a central mass in the limit when all but one of the masses becomes zero. We prove a variety of results about the coorbital relative equilibria, with an…

A symmetric planar central configuration of the Newtonian six-body problem $x$ is called cross central configuration if there are precisely four bodies on a symmetry line of $x$. We use complex algebraic geometry and Groebner basis theory…

We consider the planar central configurations of the Newtonian $\kappa n$-body problem consisting in $\kappa$ groups of $n$-gons where all $n$ bodies in each group have the same mass, called $(\kappa, n)$-crown. We study the location and…

We show that there exist an upper bound and a lower bound for the number of non-degenerate central configurations of the n-body problem in the plane with a homogeneous potential. In particular, both bounds are independent of the homogeneous…

We provide a computer-assisted proof of the exact count of classes of central configurations for five bodies for several sets of mass values that are exceptional from the point of view of the finiteness results of Albouy and Kaloshin in the…

The configuration of a homothetic motion in the N-body problem is called a central configuration. In this paper, we prove that there are exactly three planar non-collinear central configurations for masses x, -x, y, -y with x different from…

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…

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…

Planar central configurations can be seen as critical points of the reduced potential or solutions of a system of equations. By the homogeneity and invariance of the potential with respect to SO(2), it is possible to see that the…

We study the relationship between the masses and the geometric properties of central configurations. We prove that in the planar four-body problem, a convex central configuration is symmetric with respect to one diagonal if and only if the…
