We study a breather’s properties within the framework of the modified Korteweg–de Vries (mKdV) model, where cubic nonlinearity is essential. Extrema, moments, and invariants of a breather with different parameters have been analyzed. The conditions in which a breather moves in one direction or another has been determined. Two limiting cases have been considered: when a breather has an N-wave shape and can be interpreted as two solitons with different polarities, and when a breather contains many oscillations and can be interpreted as an envelope soliton of the nonlinear Schrödinger equation (NLS).
