Summary:
We investigate the existence of Intrinsic Localized Modes (ILMs) in nonlinear one-dimensional Klein-Gordon chains. We use the Lagrangian averaging approach parameterizing ILM by several slow-varying variables, and apply the averaging directly in the action principle. Our preliminary studies yield results for ILM dynamics in accordance with those obtained by other methods.
