TY - JOUR A1 - Abel, Markus A1 - Flach, S. A1 - Pikovskij, Arkadij T1 - Localisation in a coupled standard map lattice N2 - We study spatially localized excitations in a lattice of coupled standard maps. Time-periodic solutions (breathers) exist in a range of coupling that is shown to shrink as the period grows to infinity, thus excluding the possibility of time-quasiperiodic breathers. The evolution of initially localized chaotic and quasiperiodic states in a lattice is studied numerically. Chaos is demonstrated to spread Y1 - 1998 UR - http://www.stat.physik.uni-potsdam.de/~markus/papers/PhD119-4.ps.gz ER - TY - JOUR A1 - Abel, Markus A1 - Flach, S.
