Energy properties of discrete breathers. (English) Zbl 0960.82019
Summary: Discrete breathers are time-periodic, spatially localized solutions of equations of motion for classical degrees of freedom interacting on a lattice. They come in one-parameter families. We use recent results of S. Flach, K. Kladko and R. S. MacKay [Phys. Rev. Lett. 78, 1207 (1997)] on $d$-dimensional systems with local interaction and recent results of Yu. B. Gaididei, S. F. Mingaleev, P. L. Christiansen and K. Ø. Rasmussen [preprint (1997)] on one-dimensional systems with nonlocal interaction. We discuss energy properties of breathers in $d$-dimensional lattices with nonlocal interactions.
