dc.titleThe nonlinear Schrodinger equation as a macroscopic limit for an oscillator chain with cubic nonlinearitiesen
heal.abstractWe consider the nonlinear model of an infinite oscillator chain embedded in a background field. We start from an appropriate modulation ansatz of the space-time periodic solutions to the linearized (microscopic) model and derive formally the associated (macroscopic) modulation equation, which turns out-to be the nonlinear Schrodinger equation. Then we justify this necessary condition rigorously for the case of nonlinearities with cubic leading terms; i.e. we show that solutions that have the form of the assumed ansatz for t = 0 preserve this form over time-intervals with a positive macroscopic length. Finally, we transfer this result to the analogous case of a finite but large periodic chain and illustrate it by a numerical example.en
