Choreographies in the Discrete Nonlinear Schr\"odinger Equations
Abstract
We study periodic solutions of the discrete nonlinear Schr\"{o}dinger equation (DNLSE) that bifurcate from a symmetric polygonal relative equilibrium containing $n$ sites. With specialized numerical continuation techniques and a varying physically relevant parameter we can locate interesting orbits, including infinitely many choreographies. Many of the orbits that correspond to choreographies are stable, as indicated by Floquet multipliers that are extracted as part of the numerical continuation scheme, and as verified \textit{a posteriori} by simple numerical integration. We discuss the physical relevance and the implications of our results.
