Abstract: We consider the limit $No+infty$ of $N$-body type problems with weak interaction, equal masses and $-sigma$-homogeneous potential, $0<sigma<1$. We obtain the integro-differential equation that the motions must satisfy, with limit choreographic solutions corresponding to travelling waves of this equation. Such equation is the Euler-Lagrange equation of a corresponding limiting action functional. Our main result is that the circle is the absolute minimizer of the action functional among zero mean (travelling wave) loops of class $H^1$.
