For periodic Toda chains with a large number N of particles we consider states which are N-2-close to the equilibrium and constructed by discretizing any given C2-functions with mesh size N-1. For such states we derive asymptotic expansions of the Toda frequencies (ωnN)0<n<N and the actions (InN)0<n<N, both listed in the standard way, in powers of N-1 as N→∞. At the two edges n~1 and N-n~1, the expansions of the frequencies are computed up to order N-3 with an error term of higher order. Specifically, the coefficients of the expansions of ωnN and ωN-nN at order N-3 are given by a constant multiple of the nth KdV frequencies ωn- and ωn+ of two periodic potentials, q- respectively q+, constructed in terms of the states considered. The frequencies ωnN for n away from the edges are shown to be asymptotically close to the frequencies of the equilibrium. For the actions (InN)0<n<N, asymptotics of a similar nature are derived.

Abstract

For periodic Toda chains with a large number N of particles we consider states which are N-2-close to the equilibrium and constructed by discretizing any given C2-functions with mesh size N-1. For such states we derive asymptotic expansions of the Toda frequencies (ωnN)0
