Regular Polygon Central Configuration of the Restricted 1 + N -Body Problem.

We consider the central configurations of the 1 + N -body problem, where N bodies are infinitesimal and the remaining one body is dominant. For regular polygon central configurations, we prove that the masses of all the infinitesimal bodies are equal when N is odd and the masses of the alternate infinitesimal bodies must be equal when N is even. Moreover, in the case of N being even, we present the relationship of the mass parameters between two consecutive infinitesimal bodies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
