Here is an accurate and readable translation of a seminal article
by Henri Poincare that is a classic in the study of dynamical
systems popularly called chaos theory. In an effort to understand
the stability of orbits in the solar system, Poincare applied a
Hamiltonian formulation to the equations of planetary motion and
studied these differential equations in the limited case of three
bodies to arrive at properties of the equations' solutions, such as
orbital resonances and horseshoe orbits. Poincare wrote for
professional mathematicians and astronomers interested in celestial
mechanics and differential equations. Contemporary historians of
math or science and researchers in dynamical systems and planetary
motion with an interest in the origin or history of their field
will find his work fascinating.
