Abstract

A new solvable N-body model of goldfish type is identified. Its Newtonian equations of motion read as follows:

z¨n=-6z˙nzn-4zn3+32(z˙n+2zn2)k=1N(z˙ kzk+2zk)+2𝓁=1,𝓁nN[(z˙n+2zn2)(z˙𝓁+2z𝓁2)zn-z𝓁],n=1,,N,
where znzn(t) are the N dependent variables (with N an arbitrary positive integer), t is the independent variable (“time”) and the dots indicate time-differentiations. Its isochronous variant is also obtained and discussed. Other new solvable models of goldfish type characterize the behavior of these systems in the immediate neighborhood of their equilibria.
