The two-boost problem and Lagrangian Rabinowitz Floer homology
Abstract
The two-boost problem in space mission design asks whether two points of phase space can be connected with the help of two boosts of given energy. We provide a positive answer for a class of systems related to the restricted three-body problem by defining and computing its Lagrangian Rabinowitz Floer homology. The main technical work goes into dealing with the noncompactness of the corresponding energy hypersurfaces.
