Many-sphere hydrodynamic interactions and mobilities in a suspension

A general scheme is presented to evaluate the mobility tensors of an arbitrary number of spheres, immersed in a viscous fluid, in a power series expansion in R-1, where R is a typical distance between spheres. Some general properties of these (translational and rotational) mobility tensors are discussed. Explicit expressions are derived up to order R-7. To this order, hydrodynamic interactions between two, three and four spheres contribute.
