We discuss the problem of heat conduction in quantum spin chain models. To investigate this problem it is necessary to consider the finite open system connected to heat baths. We describe two different procedures to couple the system with…
In his comment, Dhar (cond-mat/0106349) claims that the existence and uniqueness of a nonequilibrium stationary state has been proved by Lebowitz et al. We should point out that our observation does not contradict the proof. They have only…

While it is known that Hamiltonian systems may undergo a phenomenon of condensation akin to Bose-Einstein condensation, not all the manifestations of this phenomenon have been uncovered yet. In this work we present a novel form of…
We introduce a model whose thermal conductivity diverges in dimension 1 and 2, while it remains finite in dimension 3. We consider a system of oscillators perturbed by a stochastic dynamics conserving momentum and energy. We compute thermal…

We show that, in periodically perturbed chaotic systems, Phase Synchronization appears, associated to a special type of stroboscopic map, in which not only averages quantities are equal to invariants of the perturbation, the angular…
In an acoustic cavity with a heat source, such as a flame in a gas turbine, the thermal energy of the heat source can be converted into acoustic energy, which may generate a loud oscillation. If uncontrolled, these nonlinear acoustic…
We study heat transport in a chain of harmonic oscillators with random elastic collisions between nearest-neighbours. The equations of motion of the covariance matrix are numerically solved for free and fixed boundary conditions. In the…

Dissipation using a finite environment coupled to a single harmonic oscillator have been studied quite extensively. We extend the study by looking at the dynamics of the dissipation when we introduce a second bath of N identical quartic…
