In this paper,we show the existence of a class of 6-body central configurations with two isosceles triangles; which are congruent to each other and keep some distance.We also study the necessary conditions about masses for the bodies which…
We consider, after Albouy-Moeckel, the inverse problem for collinear central configurations: given a collinear configuration of $n$ bodies, find positive masses which make it central. We give some new estimates concerning the positivity of…
In this paper we study spiderweb central configurations for the $N$-body problem, i.e configurations given by $N=n \times \ell+1$ masses located at the intersection points of $\ell$ concurrent equidistributed half-lines with $n$ circles and…
We study kite central configurations in the Newtonian four-body problem. We present a new proof that there exists a unique convex kite central configuration for a given choice of positive masses and a particular ordering of the bodies. Our…
We study the linear stability of regular $n$-gon rotating equilibria in the $n$-body problem with logarithm interaction. In the presence of a central mass $M$, linear stability is insured if $M$ is bounded below and above by constants…
An algorithm to compute the six distances between particles of a planar Four-Body central configuration is presented according to the following schema. An orthocentric tetrahedron is computed as a function of given masses. Each mass is…
For the curved n-body problem, we show that the set of ordinary central configurations is away from most singular configurations in H^3, and away from a subset of singular configurations in S^3. We also show that each of the n!/2 geodesic…
In this paper we develop symbolic computation algorithms to investigate finiteness of central configurations for the planar $n$-body problem. Our approach is based on Albouy-Kaloshin's work on finiteness of central configurations for the…
For the Newtonian (gravitational) $n$-body problem in the Euclidean $d$-dimensional space, $d\ge 2$, the simplest possible periodic solutions are provided by circular relative equilibria, (RE) for short, namely solutions in which each body…
We study the spatial central configuration formed by two twisted regular $N$-polygons. For any twist angle $\theta$ and any ratio of the masses $b$ in the two regular $N$-polygons, we prove that the sizes of the two regular $N$-polygons…
A solvable many-body problem in the plane is exhibited. It is characterized by rotation-invariant Newtonian (``acceleration equal force'') equations of motion, featuring one-body (``external'') and pair (``interparticle'') forces. The…
In this paper we characterize all the solutions of the three body problem on which one body with mass $m_1$ remains in a fixed line and the other two bodies have the same mass $m_2$. We show that all the solutions with negative total energy…
For 3-body problem with any given masses $m_1, \,m_2,\,m_3>0$, there exist only Eulerian collinear central configuration and Lagrangian equilateral-triangle central configuration, and in this paper, for planar 3-body problem, we prove that…
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…
We classify the extensions of n-body central configurations to (n + 1)-body central configurations in R3, in both the collinear case and the non-collinear case. We completely solve the two open questions posed by Hampton (Nonlinearity 18:…
For the gravitational $n$-body problem, the simplest motions are provided by those rigid motions in which each body moves along a Keplerian orbit and the shape of the system is a constant (up to rotations and scalings) configuration…
In the studied axisymmetric case of the central four-body problem, the axis of symmetry is defined by two unequal-mass bodies, while the other two bodies are situated symmetrically with respect to this axis and have equal masses. Here, we…
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…
We prove that, for generic (open and dense) values of the masses, the Newtonian potential function of the collinear N-body problem has $N!/2$ critical values when restricted to a fixed inertia level. In particular, we prove that for generic…
Central configurations have been of great interest over many years, with the earliest examples due to Euler and Lagrange. There are numerous results in the literature demonstrating the existence of central configurations with specific…
