(n)-body problems (70F10) Holonomic systems related to the dynamics of a system of particles (70F20)

Abstract: We revisit polygonal positive elliptic rotopulsator solutions and polygonal negative elliptic rotopulsator solutions of the $n$-body problem in $mathbb{H}^3$ and $mathbb{S}^3$ and prove existence of these solutions, prove that the masses of these rotopulsators have to be equal if the rotopulsators are of nonconstant size and show that the number of negative elliptic relative equilibria of this type is finite, as is the number of positive elliptic relative equilibria if an upper bound on the size of the relative equilibrium is imposed. Additionally, we prove that a class of negative hyperbolic rotopulsators is in fact a subclass of the class of polygonal negative elliptic rotopulsators.
