We study orbits near collision in a non-autonomous restricted planar four-body problem. This restricted problem consists of a massless particle moving under the gravitational influence due to three bodies following the figure-eight…
We present the results of a numerical search for periodic orbits with zero angular momentum in the Newtonian planar three-body problem with equal masses focused on a narrow search window bracketing the figure-eight initial conditions. We…
The main problem is to understand and to find periodic symmetric orbits in the $n$-body problem, in the sense of finding methods to prove or compute their existence, and more importantly to describe their qualitative and quantitative…
This paper introduces a new difference scheme to the difference equations for N-body type problems. To find the non-collision periodic solutions and generalized periodic solutions in multi-radial symmetric constraint for the N-body type…
In this work we introduce a planar restricted four-body problem where a massless particle moves under the gravitational influence due to three bodies following the eight figure choreography, and we explore some symmetric periodic orbits of…
We revisit the three-body problem in the framework of general relativity. The Newtonian N-body problem admits choreographic solutions, where a solution is called choreographic if every massive particles move periodically in a single closed…
The simplest solutions of the N-body problem --symmetric relative equilibria-- are shown to be organizing centers from which stem some recently studied classes of periodic solutions. We focus on the relative equilibrium of the equal-mass…
Since the discovery of the figure-8 orbit for the three-body problem [Moore 1993] a large number of periodic orbits of the n-body problem with equal masses and beautiful symmetries have been discovered. However, most of those that have…
We construct a highly-symmetric periodic orbit of eight bodies in three dimensions. In this orbit, each body collides with its three nearest neighbors in a regular periodic fashion. Regularization of the collisions in the orbit is achieved…
We study three sub-problems of the N-body problem that have two degrees of freedom, namely the n-pyramidal problem, the planar double-polygon problem, and the spatial double-polygon problem. We prove the existence of several families of…
Periodic and quasi-periodic orbits of the $n$-body problem are critical points of the action functional constrained to the Sobolev space of symmetric loops. Variational methods yield collisionless orbits provided the group of symmetries…
We present a variational approach to obtain periodic solutions of the $N$-body problem, in particular the 'figure-eight' solution for three equal masses. The central idea is to explicitly optimize the \emph{spatial scale} within the…
We show the existence of some infinite families of periodic solutions of the planar Newtonian n-body problem --with positive masses-- which are symmetric with respect to suitable actions of finite groups (under a strong--force assumption,…
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.…
Using the variational method, Chenciner and Montgomery (2000 Ann. Math. 152 881--901) proved the existence of an eight-shaped periodic solution of the planar three-body problem with equal masses. Just after the discovery, Gerver have…
We try to prove the existence of choreography solutions for the $n-$body problem on $S^2$. For the three-body problem, we show the existence of the 8-shape orbit on $S^2$.
Analytical methods are used to prove the existence of a periodic, symmetric solution with singularities in the planar 4-body problem. A numerical calculation and simulation are used to generate the orbit. The analytical method easily…
The regular-geometric-figure solution to the $N$-body problem is presented in a very simple way. The Newtonian formalism is used without resorting to a more involved rotating coordinate system. Those configurations occur for other kinds of…
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…
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…
