I will explain why this problem is tr actable if the particles are constrained to lie on a line versus if they a re allowed to move freely in space. In particular\, I'll also describe an equation at the heart of this difficulty which some researchers believe ha s been solved and others do not. This topic has motivations in astronomy a nd connections with optimal mass transportation which I will touch upon if time permits\n\nColloque des sciences mathématiques du Québec\n  \n\nFor Z oom Meeting information\, please contact Guillermo Martinez-Zalce - martin ez [at] crm.umontreal.ca\n\n \n\n \n DTSTART:20220211T203000Z DTEND:20220211T213000Z SUMMARY:Ryan Hynd (University of Pennsylvania) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/ryan-hynd-university-penn sylvania-337393 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
