Existence Of A Periodic Brake Orbit In The Fully Symmetricplanar Four Body Problem, Ammon Si-Yuen Lam
Theses and Dissertations
We investigate the existence of a symmetric singular periodic brake orbit in the equal mass, fully symmetric planar four body problem. Using regularized coordinates, we remove the singularity of binary collision for each symmetric pair. We use topological and symmetry tools in our investigation.
