AbstractWe introduce a new kind of canonical variables that prove very useful when the order of a Hamiltonian system can be reduced by one, as in the case of isoenergetic reduction, and of what we call homogeneous reduction. The Kepler Problem, Geometrical Optics and McGehee Blow-up are discussed as examples. Finally we carry out the isoenergetic reduction of the general N-Body Problem using the new variables, and briefly discuss its application to the problem of collision.

AbstractWe classify and analyze the orbits of the Kepler problemon surfaces of constant curvature (both positive and negative, 𝕊2and ℍ2, respectively) as functions of the angular momentum and the energy. Hill's regions are characterized, and the problem of time-collision is studied. We also regularize the problem in Cartesian and intrinsic coordinates, depending on the constant angular momentum, and we describe the orbits of the regularized vector field. The phase portraits both for 𝕊2and ℍ2are pointed out.
