abstract:
 
We study four different approximations for finding the profile of discrete solitons in the one- dimensional Discrete Nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) Equation. Three of them are discrete approximations (namely, a variational approach, an approximation to homoclinic orbits and a Green-function approach), and the other one is a quasi-continuum approximation. All the results are compared with numerical computations.
