Closed-Form Kepler solutions in projective coordinates are used to define a corresponding set of eight orbit elements and obtain their governing equations for arbitrarily-perturbed two-body dynamics. The elements and their dynamics are…
Here we provide an overview of what is known, and what is not known, about an interesting dynamical system known as the Kepler-Heisenberg problem. The main idea is to pose a version of the classical Kepler problem of planetary motion, but…
Compact binaries consisting of neutron stars / black holes on eccentric orbit undergo a perturbed Keplerian motion. The perturbations are either of relativistic origin or are related to the spin, mass quadrupole and magnetic dipole moments…
We show that any second order linear ordinary diffrential equation with constant coefficients (including the damped and undumped harmonic oscillator equation) admits an exact discretization, i.e., there exists a difference equation whose…
For a fixed k in (-2,2), the discretized rotation on Z^2 is defined by (x,y)->(y,-[x+ky]). We prove that this dynamics has infinitely many periodic orbits.
Abelian integrals arise in the mathematical description of various physical processes. According to Abel's theorem these integrals are related to motion of a set of points along a plane curve around fixed points, which are relatively little…
The interval approach to computation of dynamics of celestial bodies in the planetary problem has been considered. It is based on the refusal from idealization of infinitely high resolving capacity of measuring tools, and forms an…
We propose a novel discretization procedure for the classical Euler equation based on the theory of Galois differential algebras and the finite operator calculus developed by G.C. Rota and collaborators. This procedure allows us to define…
Requiring that the path integral has the global symmetries of the classical action and obeys the natural composition property of path integrals, and also that the discretized action has the correct naive continuum limit, we find a viable…
Noether's theorem is an elegant and powerful tool of classical mechanics, but it is of little to no consequence in discrete theories. Here we define and explore a discrete approach to covariant mechanics and show that within this framework…
In this paper we present a framework which provides an analytical (i.e., infinitely differentiable) transformation between spatial coordinates and orbital elements for the solution of the gravitational two-body problem. The formalism omits…
A fundamental relation in celestial mechanics is Kepler's equation, linking an orbit's mean anomaly to its eccentric anomaly and eccentricity. Being transcendental, the equation cannot be directly solved for eccentric anomaly by…
We review recent efforts to construct gravitational theories on discrete space-times, usually referred to as the ``consistent discretization'' approach. The resulting theories are free of constraints at the canonical level and therefore…
The classical Kepler-Coulomb problem on the single-sheeted hyperboloid $H^{3}_1$ is solved in the framework of the Hamilton--Jacobi equation. We have proven that all the bounded orbits are closed and periodic. The paths are ellipses or…
We argue that recent developments in discretizations of classical and quantum gravity imply a new paradigm for doing research in these areas. The paradigm consists in discretizing the theory in such a way that the resulting discrete theory…
The motion of binary star systems is re-examined in the presence of perturbations from the theory of general relativity. The Kepler problem is regularized and linearized with quaternions. In this way first order perturbation results are…
The optimal control of a mechanical system is of crucial importance in many realms. Typical examples are the determination of a time-minimal path in vehicle dynamics, a minimal energy trajectory in space mission design, or optimal motion…
We prove that the classical Lambert theorem about the elapsed time on an arc of Keplerian orbit extends without change to the Kepler problem on a space of constant curvature. We prove that the Hooke problem has a property similar to…
Using a theorem of partial differential equations, we present a general way of deriving the conserved quantities associated with a given classical point mechanical system, denoted by its Hamiltonian. Some simple examples are given to…
We discuss the exact discretization of the classical harmonic oscillator equation (including the inhomogeneous case and multidimensional generalizations) with a special stress on the energy integral. We present and suggest some numerical…
