Multiple non-collision periodic solutions for second order singular differential systems with parameters

Abstract

In this paper, new existence and multiplicity results for positive periodic solutions of singular second-order problems under sublinear and superlinear growth assumptions at infinity are established. Two aspects of our results should be highlighted in comparison with the existing literature. On the one hand, they allow for the consideration of systems exhibiting mixed behavior: sublinear in one component and superlinear in another. On the other hand, in the superlinear case, the existence of up to four positive solutions is established, whereas only two were obtained in previous works. Our approach is based on a recently established vectorial version of the Krasnoselskii-Guo fixed point theorem in product spaces.

A proof of Saari's conjecture

We prove Saari's conjecture, which states that for any solution to the classical $n$-body problem that has constant (polar) moment of inertia has to behave as a rotating rigid body. Additionally, we remark how Saari's conjecture can be generalised well beyond the confines of the classical $n$-body problem.

Estimates for $L^p$ variants of Gowers norms

Motivated by a log-convexity question of Bennett and Tao, we consider Gowers-type functionals defined by $L^p$ norms of multiple autocorrelations. We prove sharp bounds in terms of $L^q$ norms and characterise the near-extremisers on Euclidean spaces as well as locally compact abelian groups. We also establish two families of degree-lowering inequalities and study their near-extremisers. As a byproduct of this broader theory, we show that the constant in the log-convexity estimate for Gowers norms is strictly less than unity, confirming the aforementioned conjecture of Bennett and Tao. Finally, we characterise the $p$ for which the Gowers-type functionals necessarily satisfy the triangle inequality on nonnegative measurable functions.
