Abstract
We present exact analytic solutions for discrete breathers in essentially nonlinear oscillatory chains, belonging to both of the most common universality classes (Klein-Gordon and Fermi-Pasta-Ulam). The exact solutions can be obtained due to use of vibroimpact potentials, combining extreme nonlinearity with the possibility of description in terms of a forced linear model under conditions of self-consistency. A crossover between the cases of high and low energies can be studied directly. The solutions obtained may be used as a high-energy limit for models with other realistic potentials, as well as benchmarks for the testing of approximate approaches in the theory of discrete breathers.
