Lindstedt Series Solutions of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam Lattice
Abstract
We apply the Lindstedt method to the one dimensional Fermi-Pasta-Ulam β lattice to find fully general solutions to the complete set of equations of motion. The pertubative scheme employed uses ε as the expansion parameter, where ε is the coefficient of the quartic coupling between nearest neighbors. We compare our non-secular perturbative solutions to numerical solutions and find striking agreement.
