Archival RV and astrometric data plus three-body simulations constrain an unseen outer perturber in the GJ 436 system to sub-Jovian masses at a_c ≳ 6.8 AU, supporting Kozai-Lidov migration as the source of the hot Neptune's polar eccentric orbit.

Tentative evidence for a super-Jupiter at 15-100 AU or brown dwarf at 20-170 AU in 51 Pegasi from RV curvature, but the signal is likely driven by Lick/Hamilton instrument drift.
Giant planet multiplicity is low, with 10.6% and 15.8% of Sun-like stars hosting at least one giant planet within 10 au across the two surveys, mostly as singles, inconsistent with scattering models.
New transit data for WASP-11 b over 16 years shows no orbital decay or TTV signals from other planets, with a transmission spectrum exhibiting a strong Rayleigh scattering slope possibly from the atmosphere or contamination.
