Kinks in the discrete sine-gordon model with kac-baker long-range interactions

We study effects of Kac-Baker long-range dispersive interaction (LRI) between particles on kink properties in the discrete sine-Gordon model. We show that the kink width increases indefinitely as the range of LRI grows only in the case of strong interparticle coupling. On the contrary, the kink becomes intrinsically localized if the coupling is under some critical value. Correspondingly, the Peierls-Nabarro barrier vanishes as the range of LRI increases for supercritical values of the coupling but remains finite for subcritical values. We demonstrate that LRI essentially transforms the internal dynamics of the kinks, specifically creating their internal localized and quasilocalized modes.

Solitons in anharmonic chains with ultra-long-range interatomic interactions

We study the influence of long-range interatomic interactions on the properties of supersonic pulse solitons in anharmonic chains. We show that in the case of ultra-long-range (e.g., screened Coulomb) interactions three different types of pulse solitons coexist in a certain velocity interval: one type is unstable but the two others are stable. The high-energy stable soliton is broad and can be described in the quasicontinuum approximation. But the low-energy stable soliton consists of two components, short-range and long-range ones, and can be considered as a bound state of these components.

Long-range interaction and nonlinear localized modes in photonic crystal waveguides

We develop the theory of nonlinear localized modes (intrinsic localized modes or discrete breathers) in two-dimensional (2D) photonic crystal waveguides. We consider different geometries of the waveguides created by an array of nonlinear dielectric rods embedded into an otherwise perfect linear 2D photonic crystal, and demonstrate that the effective interaction in such waveguides is nonlocal, being described by a nonlinear lattice model with long-range coupling and nonlocal nonlinearity. We reveal the existence of different types of nonlinear guided mode that are also localized in the waveguide direction, and describe their unique properties, including bistability.

Curvature-induced symmetry breaking in nonlinear Schrodinger models

We consider a curved chain of nonlinear oscillators and show that the interplay of curvature and nonlinearity leads to a symmetry breaking when an asymmetric stationary state becomes energetically more favorable than a symmetric stationary state. We show that the energy of localized states decreases with increasing curvature, i.e., bending is a trap for nonlinear excitations. A violation of the Vakhitov-Kolokolov stability criterion is found in the case where the instability is due to the softening of the Peierls internal mode.
