Homographic solutions of the curved 3-body problem

preprint2010arXivOpen access

Abstract

In the 2-dimensional curved 3-body problem, we prove the existence of Lagrangian and Eulerian homographic orbits, and provide their complete classification in the case of equal masses. We also show that the only non-homothetic hyperbolic Eulerian solutions are the hyperbolic Eulerian relative equilibria, a result that proves their instability.
