In the $n$-body problem, when bodies tend to a total collision, then its normalized shape curve converges to the set of normalized central configurations, which has $SO(3)$ symmetry in the planar case. This leaves a possibility that the…
In the $n$-body problem, when a~cluster of bodies tends to a collision, then its normalized shape curve converges to the set of normalized central configurations, which has $SO(2)$ symmetry in the planar case. This leaves a possibility that…
The infinite spin problem concerns the rotational behavior of total collision orbits in the $n$-body problem. It has long been known that when a solution tends to total collision then its normalized configuration curve must converge to the…
For the planar $N$-body problem, we first introduce a class of moving frame suitable for orbits near central configurations, especially for total collision orbits, which is the main new ingredient of this paper. The moving frame allows us…
In the Newtonian $n$-body problem for solutions with arbitrary energy, which start and end either at a total collision or a parabolic/hyperbolic infinity, we prove some basic results about their Morse and Maslov indices. Moreover for…
The planar $(n+1)$-body problem models the motion of $n+1$ bodies in the plane under their mutual Newtonian gravitational attraction forces. When $n\ge 3$, the question about final motions, that is, what are the possible limit motions in…
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.…
We consider the Cauchy problem for a system of fully nonlinear parabolic equations. In this paper, we shall show the existence of global-in-time solutions to the problem. Our condition to ensure the global existence is specific to the fully…
We consider the planar restricted $N$-body problem where the $N-1$ primaries are assumed to be in a central configuration whereas the infinitesimal particle escapes to infinity in a parabolic orbit. We prove the existence of transversal…
We consider the $N$-body problem in $\mathbb{R}^d$ with the newtonian potential $1/r$. We prove that for every initial configuration $x_i$ and for every minimizing normalized central configuration $x_0$, there exists a collision-free…
Moeckel (1990), Moeckel and Sim\'o (1995) proved that, while continuously changing the masses, a 946-body planar central configuration bifurcates into a spatial central configuration. We show that this kind of bifurcation does not occur…
Consider the planar restricted $(N+1)$-body problem with trajectories of the $N(\ge 2)$ primaries forming a collision-free periodic solution of the $N$-body problem, for any positive energy $h$ and directions $\theta_{\pm} \in [0, 2\pi)$,…
In this paper, we discuss singular Neumann boundary problem for a class of nonlinear parabolic equations in one space dimension. Our boundary problem describes motion of a planar curve sliding along the boundary with a zero contact angle,…
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 develop an index theory for parabolic and collision solutions to the classical n-body problem and we prove sufficient conditions for the finiteness of the spectral index valid in a large class of trajectories ending with a total collapse…
In this paper, we further investigate the planar Newtonian three-body problem with a focus on collinear configurations, where either the three bodies or their velocities are aligned. We provide an independent proof of Montgomery's result,…
A solution of the n-body problem in R^d is a relative equilibrium if all of the mutual distance between the bodies are constant. In other words, the bodies undergo a rigid motion. Here we investigate the possibility of partially rigid…
For the Newtonian 4-body problem in space we prove that any zero angular momentum bounded solution suffers infinitely many coplanar instants, that is, times at which all 4 bodies lie in the same plane. This result generalizes a known result…
We consider the unrestricted problem of two mutually attracting rigid bodies, an uniform sphere (or a point mass) and an axially symmetric body. We present a global, geometric approach for finding all relative equilibria (stationary…
We investigate existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions of parabolic equations with unbounded coefficients in $M\times \mathbb R_+$, where $M$ is a complete noncompact Riemannian manifold. Under specific assumptions, we establish…
