We analyze the influence of an impurity in the movement of discrete breathers in Klein--Gordon chains. We observe that the moving breather can cross the impurity, can be reflected by it, or can be trapped originating a quasi-periodic…
Existence of breather (spatially localized, time periodic, oscillatory) solutions of the topological discrete sine-Gordon (TDSG) system, in the regime of weak coupling, is proved. The novelty of this result is that, unlike the systems…
