Resum
Newton trajectories are used to calculate low energy pathways for a series of Frenkel-Kontorova models with 6 and up to 69 particles thus up to a medium chain, and an expedition to 101 particles. The model is a nite chain with free-end boundary conditions. It has two competing potentials and an additional, external force. We optimize stationary structures and calculate the low energy paths between global minimums for a movement of the chain over its on-site potential, if an external tilting by a push- and/or pull direction is applied. We propose to understand a low energy path for a possibility of a superlubricity of the chain. We compare di erent mis t parameters. The result is that the minimums di er only little, however, the critical length of the chain, Ncr, depends on the mis t parameter. Ncr describes the end of a `good' calculability of the Newton trajectory which follows the low energy pathway of the chain through the potential energy surface, for a movement of the chain along the axis. We discuss reasons for the boundary of an Ncr. However, we assume that the low energy paths exist beyond their calculability by NTs.
