Morse index and bifurcation for figure-eight choreographies of the equal mass three-body problem [PDF]

J. Phys. A: Math. Theor. 52 185201 (2019), 2019
We report on the Morse index and periodic solutions bifurcating from the figure-eight choreography for the equal mass three-body problem under homogeneous potential $-1/r^a$ for $a \ge 0$, and under Lennard-Jones (LJ) type potential $1/r^{12}-1/r^6$, where $r$ is a distance between bodies. It is shown that the Morse index changes at a bifurcation point

Estimation of the marginal effect of antidepressants on body mass index under confounding and endogenous covariate-driven monitoring times [PDF]

arXiv, 2021
In studying the marginal effect of antidepressants on body mass index using electronic health records data, we face several challenges. Patients' characteristics can affect the exposure (confounding) as well as the timing of routine visits (measurement process), and those characteristics may be altered following a visit which can create dependencies ...
