Nonlinear lattice models can support "discrete breather" excitations that stay localized in space for all time. By contrast, the localized Wannier states of linear lattice models are dynamically unstable. Nevertheless, symmetric and…
On a two-dimensional planar parity-time-($\mathcal{PT}$-)symmetric nonlinear magnetic metamaterial, consisting of split-ring dimers with balanced gain and loss, discrete breather solutions can be found. We extend these studies and by…
We study the dynamics of discrete breathers -- spatially localized and time-periodic solutions -- inside the bandgap of a nonlinear honeycomb lattice where the dispersion landscape approaches a so-called semi-Dirac point in which the bands…
In this paper we construct and approximate breathers in the DNLS model starting from the continuous limit: such periodic solutions are obtained as perturbations of the ground state of the NLS model in $H^1(\RR^n)$, with $n=1,2$. In both the…
We present an analytical model of integrable turbulence in the focusing nonlinear Schr\"odinger (fNLS) equation, generated by a one-parameter family of finite-band elliptic potentials in the semiclassical limit. We show that the spectrum of…
A quasi-one-dimensional Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a quasi-periodic potential created by two sub-lattices of comparable amplitudes and incommensurate periods is considered. Although the conventional tight-binding approximation is…
We consider the Sasa-Satsuma (SS) and Nonlinear Schr\"odinger (NLS) equations posed along the line, in 1+1 dimensions. Both equations are canonical integrable $U(1)$ models, with solitons, multi-solitons and breather solutions, see Yang for…
The existence of breathers (time-periodic and spatially localized lattice vibrations) is well established for i) systems without acoustic phonon branches and ii) systems with acoustic phonons, but also with additional symmetries preventing…
Nonlinearity and disorder are the recognized ingredients of the lattice vibrational dynamics, the factors that could be diminished, but never excluded. We generalize the concept of $q$-breathers -- periodic orbits in nonlinear lattices,…
The pioneering computer simulations of the energy relaxation mechanisms performed by Fermi, Pasta and Ulam can be considered as the first attempt of understanding energy relaxation and thus heat conduction in lattices of nonlinear…
We prove the existence of time-periodic solutions consisting of patterns built up from two states, one with small amplitude and the other one with large amplitude, in general nonlinear Hamiltonian finite-size lattices with global coupling.…
For the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chain, an effective Hamiltonian is constructed, describing the motion of approximate, weakly localized discrete breathers traveling along the chain. The velocity of these moving and localized vibrations can be…
By combining results of Mizumachi on the stability of solitons for the Toda lattice with a simple rescaling and a careful control of the KdV limit we give a simple proof that small amplitude, long-wavelength solitary waves in the…
Breathers are spatially localized and time periodic solutions of extended Hamiltonian dynamical systems. In this paper we study excitation thresholds for (nonlinearly dynamically stable) ground state breather or standing wave solutions for…
We study analytical solutions of the Fractional Boussinesq Equation (FBE), which is an effective model for the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) one-dimensional lattice with long-range couplings. The couplings decay as a power-law with exponent s,…
We study the interaction of small amplitude, long wavelength solitary waves in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam model with general nearest-neighbor interaction potential. We establish global-in-time existence and stability of counter-propagating…
We show for the first time that highly localized in-plane breathers can propagate in specific directions with minimal lateral spreading in a model 2-D hexagonal non-linear lattice. The lattice is subject to an on-site potential in addition…
We consider the discrete p-Schr\"odinger (DpS) equation, which approximates small amplitude oscillations in chains of oscillators with fully-nonlinear nearest-neighbors interactions of order alpha = p-1 >1. Using a mapping approach, we…
We consider a nonlinear chain of coupled oscillators, which is a direct generalization of the classical FPU lattice and exhibits, besides the usual nearest neighbor interaction, also next-to-nearest neighbor interaction. For the case of…
$q$-Breathers (QBs) represent a quintessential phenomenon of energy localization, manifesting as stable periodic orbits exponentially localized in normal mode space. Their existence can hinder the thermalization process in nonlinear…
