We report results of systematic analysis of various modes in the flatband lattice, based on the diamond-chain model with the on-site cubic nonlinearity, and its double version with the linear on-site mixing between the two lattice fields. In the single-chain system, a full analysis is presented, first, for the single nonlinear cell, making it possible to find all stationary states, viz., antisymmetric, symmetric, and asymmetric ones, including an exactly investigated symmetry-breaking bifurcation of the subcritical type. In the nonlinear infinite single-component chain, compact localized states (CLSs) are found in an exact form too, as an extension of known compact eigenstates of the linear diamond chain. Their stability is studied by means of analytical and numerical methods, revealing a nontrivial stability boundary. In addition to the CLSs, various species of extended states and exponentially localized lattice solitons of symmetric and asymmetric types are studied too, by means of numerical calculations and variational approximation. As a result, existence and stability areas are identified for these modes. Finally, the linear version of the double diamond chain is solved in an exact form, producing two split flatbands in the systems spectrum.

The Akhmediev breather (AB) and its M-soliton generalization $AB_M$ are exact solutions of the focusing NLS equation periodic in space and exponentially localized in time over the constant unstable background; they describe the appearance of $M$ unst
able nonlinear modes and their interaction, and they are expected to play a relevant role in the theory of periodic anomalous (rogue) waves (AWs) in nature. It is rather well established that they are unstable with respect to small perturbations of the NLS equation. Concerning perturbations of these solutions within the NLS dynamics, there is the following common believe in the literature. Let the NLS background be unstable with respect to the first $N$ modes; then i) if the $M$ unstable modes of the $AB_M$ solution are strictly contained in this set ($M<N$), then the $AB_M$ is unstable; ii) if $M=N$, the so-called saturation of the instability, then the $AB_M$ solution is neutrally stable. We argue instead that the $AB_M$ solution is always unstable, even in the saturation case $M=N$, and we prove it in the simplest case $M=N=1$. We first prove the linear instability, constructing two examples of $x$-periodic solutions of the linearized theory growing exponentially in time. Then we investigate the nonlinear instability using our previous results showing that i) a perturbed AB initial condition evolves into an exact Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) recurrence of ABs described in terms of elementary functions of the initial data, to leading order; ii) the AB solution is more unstable than the background solution, and its instability increases as $Tto 0$, where $T$ is the AB appearance parameter. Although the AB solution is linearly and nonlinearly unstable, it is relevant in nature, since its instability generates a FPUT recurrence of ABs. These results suitably generalize to the case $M=N>1$.
We construct exact localised solutions of the PT-symmetric Gross-Pitaevskii equation with an attractive cubic nonlinearity. The trapping potential has the form of two $delta$-function wells, where one well loses particles while the other one is fed w
ith atoms at an equal rate. The parameters of the constructed solutions are expressible in terms of the roots of a system of two transcendental algebraic equations. We also furnish a simple analytical treatment of the linear Schrodinger equation with the PT-symmetric double-$delta$ potential.
We study ``nanoptera, which are non-localized solitary waves with exponentially small but non-decaying oscillations, in two singularly-perturbed Hertzian chains with precompression. These two systems are woodpile chains (which we model as systems of
Hertzian particles and springs) and diatomic Hertzian chains with alternating masses. We demonstrate that nanoptera arise from Stokes phenomena and appear as special curves, called Stokes curves, are crossed in the complex plane. We use techniques from exponential asymptotics to obtain approximations of the oscillation amplitudes. Our analysis demonstrates that traveling waves in a singularly perturbed woodpile chain have a single Stokes curve, across which oscillations appear. Comparing these asymptotic predictions with numerical simulations reveals that this accurately describes the non-decaying oscillatory behavior in a woodpile chain. We perform a similar analysis of a diatomic Hertzian chain, that the nanpteron solution has two distinct exponentially small oscillatory contributions. We demonstrate that there exists a set of mass ratios for which these two contributions cancel to produce localized solitary waves. This result builds on prior experimental and numerical observations that there exist mass ratios that support localized solitary waves in diatomic Hertzian chains without precompression. Comparing asymptotic and numerical results in a diatomic Hertzian chain with precompression reveals that our exponential asymptotic approach accurately predicts the oscillation amplitude for a wide range of system parameters, but it fails to identify several values of the mass ratio that correspond to localized solitary-wave solutions.
Dark solitons and localized defect modes against periodic backgrounds are considered in arrays of waveguides with defocusing Kerr nonlinearity constituting a nonlinear lattice. Bright defect modes are supported by local increase of the nonlinearity,
while dark defect modes are supported by a local decrease of the nonlinearity. Dark solitons exist for both types of the defect, although in the case of weak nonlinearity they feature side bright humps making the total energy propagating through the system larger than the energy transferred by the constant background. All considered defect modes are found stable. Dark solitons are characterized by relatively narrow windows of stability. Interactions of unstable dark solitons with bright and dark modes are described.
We consider longitudinal nonlinear atomic vibrations in uniformly strained carbon chains with the cumulene structure ($=C=C=)_{n}$. With the aid of ab initio simulations, based on the density functional theory, we have revealed the phenomenon of the
$pi$-mode softening in a certain range of its amplitude for the strain above the critical value $eta_{c}approx 11,{%}$. Condensation of this soft mode induces the structural transformation of the carbon chain with doubling of its unit cell. This is the Peierls phase transition in the strained cumulene, which was previously revealed in [Nano Lett. 14, 4224 (2014)]. The Peierls transition leads to appearance of the energy gap in the electron spectrum of the strained carbyne, and this material transforms from the conducting state to semiconducting or insulating states. The authors of the above paper emphasize that such phenomenon can be used for construction of various nanodevices. The $pi$-mode softening occurs because the old equilibrium positions (EQPs), around which carbon atoms vibrate at small strains, lose their stability and these atoms begin to vibrate in the new potential wells located near old EQPs. We study the stability of the new EQPs, as well as stability of vibrations in their vicinity. In previous paper [Physica D 203, 121(2005)], we proved that only three symmetry-determined Rosenberg nonlinear normal modes can exist in monoatomic chains with arbitrary interparticle interactions. They are the above-discussed $pi$-mode and two other modes, which we call $sigma$-mode and $tau$-mode. These modes correspond to the multiplication of the unit cell of the vibrational state by two, three or four times compared to that of the equilibrium state. We study properties of these modes in the chain model with arbitrary pair potential of interparticle interactions.
