Abstract: (arXiv)
Exoplanets are often found with short periods or high eccentricities, and multiple-planet systems are often in resonance. They require dynamical theories that describe more extreme motions than those of the relatively placid planetary orbits of the Solar System. We describe the most important dynamical processes in fully-formed planetary systems and how they are modeled. Such methods have been applied to detect the evolution of exoplanet orbits in action and to infer dramatic histories from the dynamical properties of planetary systems.References(0)
