Breather
Breather or discrete breather, is phenomenon in which energy piles up in an irregular and non-linear fashion, rather than dispersing evenly, as one might expect it to do. A breather is a localized
periodic solution of either
continuous media equations or discrete lattice equations. The exactly solvable
sine-Gordon one-
dimensional PDE possesses breather solutions. Discrete nonlinear Hamiltonian lattices in many cases support breather solutions. Breathers are types of solitonic structures, and there are two types of breathers: standing or travelling ones. Standing breathers correspond to localized solutions whose amplitude vary in time (they are sometimes called
oscillons). A necessary condition for breather existence in discrete lattices is that the breather main frequency and all its multipliers are located outside of the
phonon spectrum of the lattice.
