Abstract
At present time nonlinear excitations in one-dimensional monoatomic anharmonic chains are well studied. The next step is to study the dynamics of the diatomic chains.1 Phonon spectrum of diatomic chain has two branches with the gap between them. Do the solitons exist near the gap and in it?
