Stability of high-energy solitary waves in Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou chains

The dynamical stability of solitary lattice waves in non-integrable FPUT chains is a long-standing open problem and has been solved so far only in a certain asymptotic regime, namely by Friesecke and Pego for the KdV limit...
