Modulational stability and gap solitons of gapless systems: Continuous versus discrete limits

We consider a model consisting of two subsystems with crossing linear dispersion curves that describes, for example, light propagation in binary waveguide arrays. This model admits bright-dark gap solitons in both the discrete and the continuous (long-wavelength) limits, in spite of the absence of a...
