Global bifurcation of planar and spatial periodic solutions from the polygonal relative equilibria for the n-body problem

Given $n$ point masses turning in a plane at a constant speed, this paper deals with the global bifurcation of periodic solutions for the masses, in that plane and in space. As a special case, one has a complete study of n identical masses on a regular polygon and a central mass. The symmetries of the problem are used in order to find the irreducible representations, the linearization, and with the help of the orthogonal degree theory, all the symmetries of the bifurcating branches.

Bifurcation of periodic solutions from a ring configuration of discrete nonlinear oscillators

This paper gives an analysis of the periodic solutions of a ring of $n$ oscillators coupled to their neighbors. We prove the bifurcation of branches of such solutions from a relative equilibrium, and we study their symmetries. We give complete results for a cubic Schrödinger potential and for a saturable potential and for intervals of the amplitude of the equilibrium. The tools for the analysis are the orthogonal degree and representation of groups. The bifurcation of relative equilibria was given in a previous paper.

Global bifurcation of planar and spatial periodic solutions in the restricted n-body problem

The paper deals with the study of a satellite attracted by n primary bodies, which form a relative equilibrium. We use orthogonal degree to prove global bifurcation of planar and spatial periodic solutions from the equilibria of the satellite. In particular, we analyze the restricted three body problem and the problem of a satellite attracted by the Maxwell's ring relative equilibrium.

Bifurcation of periodic solutions from a ring configuration in the vortex and filament problems

This paper gives an analysis of the movement of n+1 almost parallel filaments or vortices. Starting from a polygonal equilibrium of n vortices with equal circulation and one vortex at the center of the polygon, we find bifurcation of periodic solutions. The bifurcation result makes use of the orthogonal degree in order to prove global bifurcation of periodic solutions depending on the circulation of the central vortex. In the case of the filament problem these solutions are periodic traveling waves.
