Fourier law in a momentum-conserving chain

Abstract

We introduce a family of Hamiltonian models for heat conduction with and without momentum conservation. They are analytically solvable in the high temperature limit and can also be efficiently simulated. In all cases Fourier law is verified in one dimension.
