Saari's conjecture is true for generic vector fields

Saari's conjecture is true for generic vector fields

The simplest non-collision solutions of the $N$-body problem are the “relative equilibria”, in which each body follows a circular orbit around the centre of mass and the shape formed by the $N$ bodies is constant. It is easy to see that the moment of inertia of such a solution is …
