On some exceptional cases in the integrability of the three-body problem
Abstract
We consider the Newtonian planar three-body problem with positive masses m 1, m 2, m 3. We prove that it does not have an additional first integral meromorphic in the complex neighborhood of the parabolic Lagrangian orbit besides three exceptional cases ∑m i m j /(∑m k )2 = 1/3, 23/33, 2/32 where the linearized equations are shown to be partially integrable. This result completes the non-integrability analysis of the three-body problem started in papers [Tsygvintsev, A.: Journal für die reine und angewandte Mathematik N 537, 127 149 (2001a); Celest. Mech. Dyn. Astron. 86(3), 237 247 (2003)] and based on the Morales Ramis Ziglin approach.
