Based on the Nakajima-Zubarev type nonequilibrium density operator, we derive a hyperbolic hydrodynamical equation. Microscopic Kubo-formulas for all coefficients in the hyperbolic hydrodynamics are obtained. Coefficients $\alpha_{i}$'s and…

We construct an ensemble of two-dimensional nonintegrable quantum circuits that are chaotic but have a conserved particle current, and thus a finite Drude weight. The long-wavelength hydrodynamics of such systems is given by the…
