Abstract
In this paper the solutions for self-localized modes in a nonlinear chain are investigated. We present a converging iteration procedure, which is based on analytical information of the wings and which takes into account higher overtones of the solitonic oscillations. The accuracy is controlled in a step by step manner by means of a Gaussian error analysis. Our numerical procedure allows for highly accurate solutions, in all anharmonicity regimes, and beyond the rotating-wave approximation (RWA). It is found that the overtone wings change their analytical behaviour at certain critical values of the energy of the self-localized mode: there is a turnover in the exponent of descent. The results are shown for a Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) chain with quartic anharmonicity.
