Abstract

H. Yoshida’s criterion of nonintegrability is restated in the light of the inverse problem of dynamics. It is shown that, given a monoparametric family of geometrically similar orbits, one may be able to assert nonintegrability of all or some homogeneous potentials of integer degreem (≠ 0, ± 2)which can produce this family.
