Non-integrability of some few body problems in two degrees of freedom (Q1958730)

The paper under review is devoted to a study of integrability for some Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom, related with few body problems: a) the elliptic restricted three body problem in the plane with collision of the primaries; b) the rectangular 4 body problem; c) the anisotropic Kepler problem. This can be made through the analysis of the linearization of the Hamiltonian system, that is, variational equations and normal variational equations. Two main tools are used: 1) the differential Galois theory through the Moralez-Ruiz approach; 2) the algebrization method through the Kovacic's algorithm.
