Abstract
The Runge-Lenz vector is used to obtain the equation for the Kepler orbits algebraically and the frequency of small oscillations of a particle about a stable circular orbit. The invariance of the Hamiltonian under the Lie algebras generated by the components of the Runge-Lenz and angular momentum vectors is discussed.
