Sumario:The discrete complex Ginzburg–Landau equation is a fundamental model for the dynamics of nonlinear lattices incorporating competitive dissipation and energy gain effects. Such mechanisms are of particular importance for the study of survival/destruction of localised structures in many physical situations. In this work, we prove that in the discrete complex Ginzburg–Landau equation dissipative solitonic waveforms persist for significant times by introducing a dynamical transitivity argument. This argument is based on a combination of the notions of “inviscid limits” and of the “continuous dependence of solutions on their initial data”, between the dissipative system and its Hamiltonian counterparts. Thereby, it establishes closeness of the solutions of the Ginzburg–Landau lattice to those of the conservative ideals described by the Discrete Nonlinear Schrödinger and Ablowitz–Ladik lattices. Such a closeness holds when the initial conditions of the systems are chosen to be sufficiently small in the suitable metrics and for small values of the dissipation or gain strengths. Our numerical findings are in excellent agreement with the analytical predictions for the dynamics of the dissipative bright, dark or even Peregrine-type solitonic waveforms.
