    Abstract

    By means of the crystallographic point group technique we construct elementary excitations (kinks) on complex ground states of the Frenkel-Kontorova model with a transverse degree of freedom. These complex kinks consist of elementary subkinks in each subchain of the system and correspond to the minimally possible topological charge.
