Abstract:

Collisions between moving localized modes (moving breathers) in non-integrable lattices present a rich outcome. In this paper, some features of the interaction of moving breathers in Discrete Nonlinear Schrödinger and Klein-Gordon lattices, together with some plausible explanations, are exposed.
