After a brief comprehensive review of old and new results on the well known Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) conservative system of $N$ nonlinearly coupled oscillators, we present a compact linear mode representation of the Hamiltonian of the FPU system with quartic nonlinearity and periodic boundary conditions, with explicitly computed mode coupling coefficients. The core of the paper is the proof of the existence of one-mode and two-mode exact solutions, physically representing nonlinear standing and travelling waves of small wavelength whose explicit lattice representations are obtained, and which are valid also as $N rightarrow infty$. Moreover, and more generally, we show the presence of multi-mode invariant submanifolds. Destabilization of these solutions by a parametric perturbation mechanism leads to the establishment of chaotic in time mode interaction channels, corresponding to the formation in phase space of bounded stochastic layers on submanifolds. The full mode-space stability problem of the $N/2$ zone-boundary mode is solved, showing that this mode becomes unstable through a mechanism of the modulational Benjamin-Feir type. In the thermodynamic limit the mode is always unstable but with instability growth rate linearly vanishing with energy density. The physical significance of these solutions and of their stability properties, with respect to the previously much more studied equipartition problem for long wavelength initial excitations, is briefly discussed.
We study the interaction of small amplitude, long wavelength solitary waves in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam model with general nearest-neighbor interaction potential. We establish global-in-time existence and stability of counter-propagating solitary wave so
We study the exact solutions of quantum integrable model associated with the $C_n$ Lie algebra, with either a periodic or an open one with off-diagonal boundary reflections, by generalizing the nested off-diagonal Bethe ansatz method. Taking the $C_3
We briefly review some of the most relevant results that our group obtained in the past, while investigating the dynamics of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) models. A first result is the numerical evidence of the existence of two different kinds of transi
Three linearly independent Hermitian invariants for the nonstationary generalized singular oscillator (SO) are constructed and their complex linear combination is diagonalized. The constructed family of eigenstates contains as subsets all previously
We examine a class of exact solutions for the eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of a doubly anharmonic oscillator defined by the potential $V(x)=omega^2/2 x^2+lambda x^4/4+eta x^6/6$, $eta>0$. These solutions hold provided certain constraints on the cou
