Abstract

Geometrical constraints imposed on higher-dimensional harmonic lattices generally lead to nonlinear dynamical lattice models. Helical lattices obtained by such a procedure are shown to be described by sine- plus linear-lattice equations. The interplay between sinusoidal and quadratic potential terms in such models is shown to yield localized nonlinear modes identified as intrinsic resonant modes.
