Unlike analogous Hamiltonian PDEs, the lattice equations do not conserve momentum. Furthermore, the Toda lattice equation is a bidirectional model that does not fit in with existing theory for Hamiltonian system by Grillakis, Shatah and Strauss. To prove stability of 1-soliton solutions, we split a solution around a 1-soliton into a small solution that moves more slowly than the main solitary wave, and an exponentially localized part. We apply a decay estimate for solutions to a linearized Toda equation which has been recently proved by Mizumachi and Pego to estimate the localized part. We improve the asymptotic stability results for FPU lattices in a weighted space obtained by Friesecke and Pego.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2007-11-14T09:01:57.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "37K60", "35B35", "35Q51", "37K40", "37K45" ], "keywords": [ "energy space", "lattice solitons", "toda lattice equation", "asymptotic stability results", "main solitary wave" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 19, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2007arXiv0711.2134M" } } }
