We study nonclassic solitonic structures on the modified oscillator — chain proposed by Peyrard and Bishop to model DNA. The two DNA's strands are linked together by hydrogen bonds that are modeled by the Morse potential. This Peyrard–Bishop model with inharmonic potential in the optical part of the Hamiltonian gives rise to several nonclassical solutions, i.e., compact-cusp and anti-peak or crowd like soliton solutions. These structures could represent not only local openings of base pairs, but also the inverse process that heals the formation of broken hydrogen bonds.
