This paper is concerned with the study of existence and properties of symmetric stationary solutions for the dynamics of N point vortices in an ideal fluid constrained to a dihedrally symmetric twodimensional domain Ω, which is governed by a Hamiltonian systemwhere zi = (xi, yi), i = 1, . . . , N, and whereis the so-called Kirchhoff-Routh path function under some conditions on the vorticities Γi.Mathematics Subject Classification. 37N10, 37C25, 76M30.
