We address the problem of directional mobility of discrete solitons in two-dimensional rectangular lattices, in the framework of a discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger model with saturable on-site nonlinearity. A numerical constrained…
The aim of this paper is studying the problem of almost periodicity of almost periodic lattice dynamical systems of the form $u_{i}'=\nu (u_{i-1}-2u_i+u_{i+1})-\lambda u_{i}+F(u_i)+f_{i}(t)\ (i\in \mathbb Z,\ \lambda >0)$. We prove the…
We report the existence of stable symmetric vortex-type solutions for two-dimensional nonlinear discrete dissipative systems governed by a cubic-quintic complex Ginzburg-Landau equation. We construct a whole family of vortex solitons with a…
We consider the nonlinear wave equation known as the $\phi^{6}$ model in dimension 1+1. We describe the long time behavior of all the solutions of this model close to a sum of two kinks with energy slightly larger than twice the minimum…
We study the soliton-type solutions of the system introduced by B. Feigin and the author in in [EF]. We show that it reduces to a top-like system, and we study the behaviour of the solutions at the lattice infinity. We compute the…
We study the (spin-)Peierls transition in quasi-one-dimensional disordered systems, treating the lattice classically. The role of kinks, induced thermally and by disorder, is emphasized. For weak interchain interaction the kinks destroy the…
In a classical, quartic field theory with $SU(N) \times Z_2$ symmetry, a class of kink solutions can be found analytically for one special choice of parameters. We construct these solutions and determine their energies. In the limit $N\to…
In recent years, three exceptional discretizations of the phi^4 theory have been discovered [J.M. Speight and R.S. Ward, Nonlinearity 7, 475 (1994); C.M. Bender and A. Tovbis, J. Math. Phys. 38, 3700 (1997); P.G. Kevrekidis, Physica D 183,…
Solitary waves in a general nonlinear lattice are discussed, employing as a model the nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation with a spatially periodic nonlinear coefficient. An asymptotic theory is developed for long solitary waves, that span a…
We have studied the space-reflection symmetries of some soliton solutions of deformed sine-Gordon models in the context of the quasi-integrability concept. Considering a dual pair of anomalous Lax representations of the deformed model we…
It has been observed that certain classical chains admit topologically protected zero-energy modes that are localized on the boundaries. The static features of such localized modes are captured by linearized equations of motion, but the…
We consider a family of field-theoretic models with a real scalar field in (1+1)-dimensional space-time. The field dynamics in each model is determined by a polynomial potential with two degenerate minima. We obtain exact general formulas…
We prove the asymptotic stability of the moving kinks for the nonlinear relativistic wave equations in one space dimension with a Ginzburg-Landau potential: starting in a small neighborhood of the kink, the solution, asymptotically in time,…
In both the Gardner equation and its extensions, the non-convex convection bounds the range of solitons / compactons velocities beyond which they dissolve and kink/anti-kink form. Close to solitons barrier we unfold a narrow strip of…
We establish the asymptotic stability of the sine-Gordon kink under odd perturbations that are sufficiently small in a weighted Sobolev norm. Our approach is perturbative and does not rely on the complete integrability of the sine-Gordon…
In this paper we study the dynamics of explicit solutions of $2+1$-dimensional ($2$D) sine-Gordon equation. The Darboux transformation is applied to the associated linear eigenvalue problem to construct nontrivial solutions of $2$D…
We propose a system of sine-Gordon equations, with the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetry represented by balanced gain and loss in them. The equations are coupled by sine-field terms and first-order derivatives. The sinusoidal coupling stems from…
