Abstract

A complex deformation of the Newtonian equations of motion of the classical gravitational many-body problem is introduced, namely a many-body problem that features a parameter ? and that reduces, when this parameter vanishes, to the standard equations of motion of Newtonian gravitation for an arbitrary number of pointlike bodies with arbitrary masses; and it is shown that when this parameter is instead positive, ?>0, there is an open set of (complex) initial data such that all the (complex) motions originating from it are completely periodic with period T = 2?/?, and that the (infinite) measure of this set is a finite (nonvanishing) fraction of the measure of the entire set of initial data.
