## Abstract We present a variational approach to the problem of solitary wave formation in oneβdimensional nonlinear photonic crystals. In particular, we analyze how an arbitrary initial pulse is reshaped into a stable solitary wave by shedding excess radiation. Owing to the strong Braggβscattering
