A note on the Dziobek central configurations

For the Newtonian n-body problem in R^n-2 with n ≥ 3 we prove that the following two statements are equivalent. (a) Let x be a Dziobek central configuration having one mass located at the center of mass. (b) Let x be a central configuration formed by n-1 equal masses located at the vertices of a reg...

Sumario:For the Newtonian n-body problem in R^n-2 with n ≥ 3 we prove that the following two statements are equivalent. (a) Let x be a Dziobek central configuration having one mass located at the center of mass. (b) Let x be a central configuration formed by n-1 equal masses located at the vertices of a regular (n-2)-simplex together with an arbitrary mass located at its barycenter.
