The existence and stability of solitons in discrete nonlinear Schrödinger equations

In this thesis, we investigate analytically and numerically the existence and stability of discrete solitons governed by discrete nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) equations with two types of nonlinearity, i.e., cubic and saturable nonlinearities. In the cubic-type model we consider stationary discrete s...
