Abstract: Saari's homographic conjecture claims that, in the N-body problem under the homogeneous potential, U=alpha1summimj/rijalpha for alphae0, a motion having constant configurational measure mu=Ialpha/2U is homographic, where I represents the moment of inertia defined by I=summimjrij2/summk, mi the mass, and rij the distance between particles. We prove this conjecture for general masses mk>0 in the planar three-body problem under Newton potential (alpha=1) and a strong force potential (alpha=2).
