Abstract
We consider two dimensional discrete lattices with anharmonic interactions and weak transversal dispersion. We study the propagation of a continuum Kadomtsev-Petviashvili I lump and its semi discrete analogue and show the formation of caustics, due to the emission of linear waves, in both cases.We perform numerical experiments in different settings. We show how impurities and prestress can produce new lumps in analogy with one dimensional soliton formation in near critical flows.
