Abstract:
The dynamics of nonlinear waves of the sine-Gordon equation with a spatially modulated periodic potential are studied using analytical and numerical methods. The structure and properties of four-kink multisolitons excited on two identical attracting impurities are determined. For small-amplitude oscillations, an analytical spectrum of the oscillations is obtained, which is in qualitatively agreement with the numerical results.
Key words:sine-Gordon equation, four-kink multisolitons, structure and properties of solitons, numerical-analytical study.
