Here, we present a detailed experimental and theoretical analysis of the dispersion and nonlinear Kerr frequency shifts of plasma modes in a one-dimensional Josephson junction chain containing 500 superconducting quantum interfence devices in the regime of weak nonlinearity. The measured low-power dispersion curve agrees perfectly with the theoretical model if we take into account the Kerr renormalization of the bare frequencies and the long-range nature of the island charge screening by a remote ground plane. We measured the self- and cross-Kerr shifts for the frequencies of the eight lowest modes in the chain. We compare the measured Kerr coefficients with theory and find good agreement.
