We describe "small bodies" in a non-metric gravity theory previously studied by this author. The main dynamical field of the theory is a certain triple of two-forms rather than the metric, with only the spacetime conformal structure, not…
We compute the purely local-in-time (scale-free and logarithm-free) part of the conservative dynamics of gravitationally interacting two-body systems at the fourth post-Minkowskian order, and at the thirtiest order in velocity. The…
We consider a viscoelastic body occupying a smooth bounded domain of $R^3$ under the effects of volumic traction forces. Inertial effects are considered: hence, the equation describing the evolution of displacements is of the second order…
Sides and medians are both Jacobi coordinate magnitudes, moreover then equably entering the spherical coordinates on Kendall's shape sphere and the Hopf coordinates. This motivates treating medians on the same footing as sides in triangle…
This paper we consider for the N-body problem with potential 1/r{\alpha} (0 < {\alpha} < 1) the existence of hyperbolic motions for any prescribed limit shape and any given initial configuration of the bodies. Here E is the Euclidean space…
We study central configurations in the four body problem, i.e., configurations in which the forces on all the bodies point to a fixed, single point in space. The newly formulated pair-space formalism yields a set of vectorial equations that…
We prove that equally spaced choreography solutions of a large class of $n$-body problems including the classical $n$-body problem and a subset of quasi-homogeneous $n$-body problems, have equal masses if the dimension of the space spanned…
We derive the path integral action for a particle moving in three dimensional fuzzy space. From this we extract the classical equations of motion. These equations have rather surprising and unconventional features: They predict a cut-off in…
A small variation of the circular shape of the hodograph theorem states that for every elliptical solution of the two-body problem, it is possible to find an appropriate inertial frame such that the speed of the bodies is constant. We use…
Hip-Hop solutions of the $2N$-body problem are solutions that satisfy at every instance of time, that the $2N$ bodies with the same mass $m$, are at the vertices of two regular $N$-gons, each one of these $N$-gons are at planes that are…
The classical three-body harmonic system in $\mathbb{R}^d$ ($d>1$) with finite rest lengths and zero total angular momentum $L=0$ is considered. This model describes the dynamics of the $L=0$ near-equilibrium configurations of three point…
We present a numerical study on the stability of all fourth- and fifth-order retrograde mean motion resonances (1/3, 3/1, 1/4, 4/1, 2/3, and 3/2) in the 3-body problem composed of a solar mass star, a Jupiter mass planet, and an additional…
For some planar Newtonian $N+3$-body problems, we use variational minimization methods to prove the existence of new periodic solutions satisfying that $N$ bodies chase each other on a curve, and the other 3 bodies chase each other on…
In 1999 Chenciner and Montgomery found a remarkably simple choreographic motion for the planar 3-body problem (see \cite{CM}). In this solution 3 equal masses travel on a eight shaped planar curve; this orbit is obtained minimizing the…
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 present the results of a numerical search for periodic orbits of three equal masses moving in a plane under the influence of Newtonian gravity, with zero angular momentum. A topological method is used to classify periodic three-body…
We report on the Morse index and periodic solutions bifurcating from the figure-eight choreography for the equal mass three-body problem under homogeneous potential $-1/r^a$ for $a \ge 0$, and under Lennard-Jones (LJ) type potential…
We develop the canonical formalism for a system of $N$ bodies in lineal gravity and obtain exact solutions to the equations of motion for N=2. The determining equation of the Hamiltonian is derived in the form of a transcendental equation,…
We consider a macroscopic body propagating in a one-dimensional resistive medium, consisting of an ideal gas at temperature $T$. For a whole family of collisions with varying degree of inelasticity, we find an exact expression for the…
In Papers I and II, we have used a free-energy minimization approach that stems from the Landau-Ginzburg theory of phase transitions to describe in simple and clear physical terms the secular and dynamical instabilities as well as the…
