Oscillations of a highly discrete breather with a critical regime
2000
We analyze carefully the essential features of the dynamics of a stationary discrete breather in the ultimate degree of energy localization in a nonlinear Klein-Gordon lattice with an on-site double-well potential. We demonstrate the existence of three different regimes of oscillatory motion in the breather dynamics, which are closely related to the motion of the central particle in an effective potential having two nondegenerate wells. In given parameter regions, we observe an untrapped regime, in which the central particle executes large-amplitude oscillations from one to the other side of the potential barrier. In other parameter regions, we find the trapped regime, in which the central …
Ansatz-independent solution of a soliton in a strong dispersion-management system
2000
We introduce a theoretical approach to the study of propagation in systems with periodic strong-management dispersion. Our approach does not assume any ansatz about the form of the solution nor does it make use of any average procedure. We find an explicit solution for the pulse evolution in the fast dynamics regime (distances smaller than the dispersion period). We also establish the equation of motion governing the slow dynamics of an arbitrary pulse and prove that the pulse evolution is nonlinear and Hamiltonian. We solve this equation and find that a nonlinear solitonlike solution occurs self-consistently in the form of an asymptotic stationary eigenfunction of the Hamiltonian.
Breather compactons in nonlinear Klein-Gordon systems
1999
We demonstrate the existence of a localized breathing mode with a compact support, i.e., a stationary breather compacton, in a nonlinear Klein-Gordon system. This breather compacton results from a delicate balance between the harmonicity of the substrate potential and the total nonlinearity induced by the substrate potential and the coupling forces between adjacent lattice sites.
Analytical calculation of the Peierls-Nabarro barriers for the Remoissenet-Peyrard substrate potential
1999
We derive analytically the pinning potential and the pinning barrier of kinks due to discreteness of lattices for the Remoissenet-Peyrard substrate potential by means of the residue method. The theoretical analysis in the low discreteness effect regime is compared in detail with numerical results of Peyrard and Remoissenet [Phys. Rev. B 26, 2886 (1982)], yielding a very satisfactory agreement.
