In my talk I will describe numerical and rigorous continuation and bifu rcation techniques in a boundary value setting used to follow Lyapunov fam ilies of periodic orbits. These arise from the polygonal system of n bodie s in a rotating frame of reference. When the frequency of a Lyapunov orbit and the frequency of the rotating frame have a rational relationship\, th e orbit is also periodic in the inertial frame. We prove that a dense set of Lyapunov orbits\, with frequencies satisfying a Diophantine equation\, correspond to choreographies. I will present a sample of the many choreogr aphies that we have determined numerically along the Lyapunov families and bifurcating families. I will also talk about the computer assisted proofs that validate some of theses choreographies. This is joint work with Euse bius Doedel\, Carlos GarcĂ­a Azpeitia\, Jason Mireles-James and Jean-Philip pe Lessard.\n DTSTART:20190408T200000Z DTEND:20190408T210000Z LOCATION:Room 1104\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Renato Calleja (IIMAS-UNAM) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/renato-calleja-iimas-unam -295933 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
