Abstract

Multi-peaked localized stationary solutions of the discrete nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) equation are presented in one (1D) and two (2D) dimensions. These are excited states of the discrete spectrum and correspond to multi-breather solutions. A simple, very fast, and efficient numerical method, suggested by Aubry, has been used for their calculation. The method involves no diagonalization, but just iterations of a map, starting from trivial solutions of the anti-continuous limit. Approximate analytical expressions are presented and compared with the numerical results. The linear stability of the calculated stationary states is discussed and the structure of the linear stability spectrum is analytically obtained for relatively large values of nonlinearity.
