Item Variational methods and the orbits with collisions in the N-body problem.(2011-05) Huang, Hsin-YuanThe objective of this thesis is to study variational methods in the Newtonian N-body problem. Chapter 1 contains the introduction of Chapters 2 and 3. Chapter 2 is devoted to the variational proof of the Schubart-like orbits in the collinear four-body problem. In Chapter 3, we discuss the limiting configurations of the action-minimizing triple collision orbits in the planar three body problem.
