Orbital and asymptotic stability for 1-soliton solutions to the Toda lattice equations as well as small solitary waves to the FPU lattice equations are established in the energy space. Unlike analogous Hamiltonian PDEs, the lattice equations do not conserve momentum. Furthermore, the Toda lattice equation is a bidirectional model that does not fit in with existing theory for Hamiltonian system by Grillakis, Shatah and Strauss. To prove stability of 1-soliton solutions, we split a solution around a 1-soliton into a small solution that moves more slowly than the main solitary wave, and an exponentially localized part. We apply a decay estimate for solutions to a linearized Toda equation which has been recently proved by Mizumachi and Pego to estimate the localized part. We improve the asymptotic stability results for FPU lattices in a weighted space obtained by Friesecke and Pego.
