Compacton matter waves are considered in Bose-Einstein condensates (BEC) and in binary BEC mixtures, trapped in deep optical lattices in the presence of strong and rapid periodic time modulations of the atomic scattering length, are considered. For this, we derive vector averaged discrete nonlinear Schrodinger equations (DNLSE) and show that compacton solutions of dierent types can exist as stable excitations. Stability properties are studied by linear analysis and by direct numerical integrations of the DNLSE system.
Keywords: Bose-Einstein condensates, wave compactons, solitons, nonlinear Schrödinger equation.
