49. Referring to the geometry in Fig. 1, there is no difference between the breathers with excited (n - 1,n) or (n,n + 1) sites because of the system symmetry. Upon a turn of our two-dimensional chain upside down we get the same system, but a local geometry of a pair (n-1,n) turns into (n,n + 1) geometry.
