Abstract

We study dynamic correlations for current and mass, as well as the associated power spectra, in the one-dimensional conserved Manna sandpile. We show that, in the thermodynamic limit, the variance of cumulative bond current up to time TT grows subdiffusively as T1/2μT^{1/2-\mu} with the exponent μ0\mu \ge 0 depending on the density regimes considered and, likewise, the power spectra of current and mass at low frequency ff varies as f1/2+μf^{1/2+\mu} and f3/2+μf^{-3/2+\mu}, respectively; our theory predicts that, far from criticality, μ=0\mu = 0 and, near criticality, μ=(β+1)/2νz>0\mu = (\beta+1)/2 \nu_{\perp} z > 0 with β\beta, ν\nu_{\perp} and zz being the order-parameter, correlation-length and dynamic exponents, respectively. The anomalous suppression of fluctuations near criticality signifies a "dynamic hyperuniformity", characterized by a set of fluctuation relations, in which current, mass and tagged-particle displacement fluctuations are shown to have a precise quantitative relationship with the density-dependent activity (or, it's derivative). In particular, the relation, Ds(ρˉ)=a(ρˉ)/ρˉ{\mathcal{D}}_s(\bar{\rho}) = a(\bar{\rho}) / \bar{\rho}, between the self-diffusion coefficient Ds(ρˉ){\mathcal{D}}_s(\bar{\rho}), activity a(ρˉ)a(\bar{\rho}) and density ρˉ\bar{\rho} explains a previous simulation observation [Eur. Phys. J. B \textbf{72}, 441 (2009)] that, near criticality, the self-diffusion coefficient in the Manna sandpile has the same scaling behavior as the activity.
