. We generalize the Aubry-Mather theorem on the existence of quasiperiodicsolutions of one dimensional difference equations to situations in which theindependent variable ranges over more complicated lattices. This is a natural generalizationof Frenkel-Kontorovna models to physical situations in a higher dimensionalspace. We also consider generalizations in which the interactions among the particlesare not just nearest neighbor, and indeed do not have finite range.(1)This preprint is...
