This paper gives an analysis of the periodic solutions of a ring of $n$oscillators coupled to their neighbors. We prove the bifurcation of branchesof such solutions from a relative equilibrium, and we study theirsymmetries. We give complete results for a cubic Schr?dinger potential andfor a saturable potential and for intervals of the amplitude of theequilibrium. The tools for the analysis are the orthogonal degree andrepresentation of groups. The bifurcation of relative equilibria was givenin a previous paper.
Keywords: Ring configuration, nonlinear oscillators, global bifurcation, equivariant degree theory..
