Standing and Traveling Waves in a Model of Periodically Modulated One-dimensional Waveguide Arrays

In the present work, we study coherent structures in a one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger lattice in which the coupling between waveguides is periodically modulated. Numerical experiments with single-site initial conditions show that, depending on the power, the system exhibits two fundamentally different behaviors. At low power, initial conditions with intensity... Show more
