AbstractIn this paper, we consider a time-periodically forced Kepler problem in any dimension, with an external force which we only assume to be regular in a neighborhood of the attractive center. We prove that there exist infinitely many periodic orbits in this system, with possible double collisions with the center regularized, which accumulate at the attractive center. The result is obtained via a localization argument combined with a result on $$C^{1}$$ C 1 -persistence of closed orbits by a local homotopy-stretching argument. Consequently, by formulating the circular and elliptic restricted three-body problems of any dimension as time-periodically forced Kepler problems, we obtain that there exist infinitely many periodic orbits, with possible double collisions with the primaries regularized, accumulating at each of the primaries.

We study the global bifurcation diagram of the two-parameter family of ODE’s that govern the charged isosceles three-body problem. (The classic isosceles three-body problem and the anisotropic Kepler problem (two bodies) are included in the same family.) There are two major sources of periodic orbits. On the one hand the “Kepler” orbit, a stable orbit exhibiting the generic bifurcations as the multiplier crosses rational values. This orbit turns out to be the continuation of the classical circular Kepler orbit. On the other extreme we have the collision-ejection orbit which exhibits an “infinite-furcation.” Up to a limiting value of the parameter we have finitely many periodic orbits (for each fixed numerator in the rotation number), passed this value there is a sudden birth of an infinite number of them. We find that these two bifurcations are remarkably connected forming the main “skeleton” of the global bifurcation diagram. We conjecture that this type of global connection must be present in related problems such as the classic isosceles three-body problem and the anisotropic Kepler problem.

The main goal of the present paper is to evaluate the perturbed locations and investigate the linear stability of the triangular points. We studied the problem in the elliptic restricted three body problem frame of work. The problem is generalized in the sense that the two primaries are considered as triaxial bodies. It was found that the locations of these points are affected by the triaxiality coefficients of the primaries and the eccentricity of orbits. Also, the stability regions depend on the involved perturbations. We also studied the periodic orbits in the vicinity of the triangular points.
