From normal diffusion to superdiffusion of energy in the evanescent flip noise limit

Probability 2015-06-23 v1

Abstract

We consider a harmonic chain perturbed by an energy conserving noise depending on a parameter γ\gamma. When γ\gamma is of order one, the energy diffuses according to the standard heat equation after a space-time diffusive scaling. On the other hand, when γ=0\gamma=0, the energy superdiffuses according to a 3/4 fractional heat equation after a subdiffusive space-time scaling. In this paper, we study the existence of a crossover between these two regimes as a function of γ\gamma.
