Phonon gap analysis for equilibria of perturbed almost-periodic Frenkel-Kontorova models

For generalized Frenkel-Kontorova models subjected to almost-periodic media, employing both the KAM method and the approach of `anti-integrable' limits, two different types of equilibria are obtained in \cite{an2024kamtheoryalmostperiodicequilibria} and \cite{du2024anti} respectively. We study the phonon gap around these equilibria and we find that the KAM equilibria do not have a phonon gap but the equilibria obtained by anti-integrable limits do have.

Gevrey KAM equilibria for quasi-periodic long-range Frenkel-Kontorova models

We consider models of one-dimensional chains of non-nearest neighbor and many-body interacting particles subjected to quasi-periodic media. We extend the results in \cite{12Su&delaLlavelongrange} from analytic to Gevrey regularity potentials. More precisely, we establish an a posteriori KAM theorem showing that in the Gevrey topology, given an approximate solution of equilibrium equation, which satisfies some appropriate non-degeneracy conditions and decay property, then there is a true solution nearby and the solution preserves both the quasi-periodicity and Gevrey regularity. The method of proof is based on a combination of quasi-Newton methods and delicate estimates in spaces of Gevrey functions.

KAM Theory for almost-periodic equilibria in one dimensional almost-periodic media

We consider one dimensional chains of interacting particles subjected to one dimensional almost-periodic media. We formulate and prove two KAM type theorems corresponding to both short-range and long-range interactions respectively. Both theorems presented have an a posteriori format and establish the existence of almost-periodic equilibria. The new part here is that the potential function is given by some almost-periodic function with infinitely many incommensurate frequencies. In both cases, we do not need to assume that the system is close to integrable. We will show that if there exists an approximate solution for the functional equations, which satisfies some appropriate non-degeneracy conditions, then a true solution nearby is obtained. This procedure may be used to validate efficient numerical computations. Moreover, to well understand the role of almost-periodic media which can be approximated by quasi-periodic ones, we present a different approach -- the step by step increase of complexity method -- to the study of the above results of the almost-periodic models.
