Statistical mechanics of a discrete Schrödinger equation with saturable nonlinearity
Statistical mechanics of a discrete Schrödinger equation with saturable nonlinearity
We study the statistical mechanics of the one-dimensional discrete nonlinear Schr\"odinger (DNLS) equation with saturable nonlinearity. Our study represents an extension of earlier work [Phys. Rev. Lett. 84, 3740 (2000)] regarding the statistical mechanics of the one-dimensional DNLS equation with a cubic nonlinearity. As in this earlier study, we identify …
