Consider an abstract Hamiltonian system which is invariant under a one- parameter unitary group of operators. By a ``solitary wave'' we mean a solution the time development of which is given exactly by the one- parameter group. We find sharp conditions for the stability and instability of solitary waves. Applications are given to bound states and traveling waves of nonlinear PDEs such Klein-Gordon and Schrödinger equations.
