Discrete breathers—advances in theory and applications

S Flach, AV Gorbach - Physics Reports, 2008 - Elsevier
Nonlinear classical Hamiltonian lattices exhibit generic solutions—discrete breathers. They
are time-periodic and (typically exponentially) localized in space. The lattices have discrete …
