Compactons in strongly nonlinear lattices
… work, we study wave phenomena in strongly nonlinear lattices. Such lattices are characterized by the absence of classical linear waves. We demonstrate that compactons – strongly localized solitary waves with tails decaying faster than exponential – exist and that they play a major role in …

Chaotic behaviour of disordered nonlinear lattices
… spreading in prototypical models of disordered nonlinear lattices, the so-called disordered Klein-Gordon (DKG) system, in one (1D) and two (2D) spatial dimensions. The normal modes' exponential localization in 1D and 2D heterogeneous linear media explains the phenomenon of Anderson Localization. …

Quantum breathers in small networks: Dynamics, tunneling, correlations, and application to Josephson cells
… the excitation of quantum breathers in small nonlinear networks of two and three degrees of freedom, in order to study their properties. The invariance under permutation of two sites of these networks substitutes the translation invariance that is present in nonlinear lattices, where …

Δυναμική χαμηλοδιάστατων τόρων και χάος σε χαμιλτώνια συστήματα πολλών βαθμών ελευθερίας
Η παρούσα εργασία αφορά στη μελέτη Χαμιλτώνιων συστημάτων Ν μη γραμμικών ταλαντωτών, όπως είναι αυτό των Fermi Pasta και Ulam (FPU), με στόχο την βαθύτερη κατανόηση της δυναμικής των σχεδόν-περιοδικών τροχιών και του ρόλου των αντίστοιχων τόρων στο χώρο φάσεων, καθώς αυξάνουμε την ενέργεια Ε και …
