Optomechanical arrays consist of a number of localized vibrational and optical modes coupled to each other via radiation forces. First versions of such structures have been realized recently based on photonic crystal designs. Future setups are projected to enter the quantum regime. We present our theoretical analysis of the linear and nonlinear quantum dynamics of interacting photons and phonons in such arrays.
