We present an analytical and numerical study of the orbital migration and resonance capture of fictitious two-planet systems with masses in the super-Earth range undergoing Type-I migration. We find that, depending on the flare index and proximity to the central star, the average value of the period ratio, P 2 /P 1 , between both planets may show a significant deviation with respect to the nominal value. For planets trapped in the 2:1 commensurability, offsets may reach values on the order of 0.1 for orbital periods on the order of 1 day, while systems in the 3:2 mean-motion resonance (MMR) show much smaller offsets for all values of the semimajor axis. These properties are in good agreement with the observed distribution of near-resonant exoplanets, independent of their detection method. We show that 2:1-resonant systems far from the star, such as HD82943 and HR8799, are characterized by very small resonant offsets, while higher values are typical of systems discovered by Kepler with orbital periods approximately a few days. Conversely, planetary systems in the vicinity of the 3:2 MMR show little offset with no significant dependence on the orbital distance. In conclusion, our results indicate that the distribution of Kepler planetary systems around the 2:1 and 3:2 MMR are consistent with resonant configurations obtained as a consequence of a smooth migration in a laminar flared disk, and no external forces are required to induce the observed offset or its dependence with the commensurability or orbital distance from the star.

We present a series of dynamical maps for fictitious 3-planets systems in initially circular coplanar orbits. These maps have unveiled a rich resonant structure involving two or three planets, as well as indicating possible migration routes from secular to double resonances or pure 3-planet commensurabilities. These structures are then compared to the present-day orbital architecture of observed resonant chains. In a second part of the paper we describe N-body simulations of type-I migration. Depending on the orbital decay timescale, we show that 3-planet systems may be trapped in different combinations of independent commensurabilities: (i) double resonances, (ii) intersection between a 2-planet and a first-order 3-planet resonance, and (iii) simultaneous libration in two first-order 3-planet resonances. These latter outcomes are found for slow migrations, while double resonances are almost always the final outcome in highdensity disks. Finally, we discuss an application to the TRAPPIST-1 system. We find that, for low migration rates and planetary masses of the order of the estimated values, most 3-planet sub-systems are able to reach the observed double resonances after following evolutionary routes defined by pure 3-planet resonances. The final orbital configuration shows resonance offsets comparable with present-day values without the need of tidal dissipation. For the 8/5 resonance proposed to dominate the dynamics of the two inner planets, we find little evidence of its dynamical significance; instead, we propose that this relation between mean motions could be a consequence of the interaction between a pure 3-planet resonance and a 2-planet commensurability between planets c and d.
