We consider countable system of harmonic oscillators on the real line with quadratic interaction potential with finite support and local external force (stationary stochastic process) acting only on one fixed particle. In the case of…
We consider a one dimensional infinite chain of har- monic oscillators whose dynamics is perturbed by a stochastic term conserving energy and momentum. We prove that in the unpinned case the macroscopic evolution of the energy converges to…

The harmonic chain is a classical many-particle system which can be solved exactly for arbitrary number of particles (at least in simple cases, such as equal masses and spring constants). A nice feature of the harmonic chain is that the…
The properties of a one space-dimension, one particle dynamical system under the influence of a purely dissipative force are investigated. Assuming this force depends only on the velocity, it is demonstrated, in contrast to the case of…
An infinite irregular harmonic chain of particles is considered. We assume that some particles (``defects'') in the chain have masses and force constants of interaction different from the masses and the interaction constants of the other…
We study the propagation of energy in one-dimensional anharmonic chains subject to a periodic, localized forcing. For the purely harmonic case, forcing frequencies outside the linear spectrum produce exponentially localized responses,…

We study the stochastic thermodynamics of an overdamped harmonic chain, which can be viewed equivalently as a 1D Rouse chain or as an approximate model of single file diffusion. We discuss mainly two levels of description of this system:…
We analyze the phase diagram of a quantum particle confined to a finite chain, subject to a dissipative environment described by an Ohmic spectral function. Analytical and numerical techniques are employed to explore both the perturbative…

Assuming that a constant potential energy function has meaning for a dissipated harmonic oscillator, then an important issue is the time dependence of the turning points. Turning point studies demonstrate that the common model of external…
We investigate the properties of a harmonic chain in contact with a thermal bath at one end and subjected, at its other end, to a periodic force. The particles also undergo a random velocity reversal action, which results in a finite heat…
We study the dynamic behavior at high energies of a chain of anharmonic oscillators coupled at its ends to heat baths at possibly different temperatures. In our setup, each oscillator is subject to a homogeneous anharmonic pinning potential…
It is proven that the energy of a quantum mechanical harmonic oscillator with a generically time-dependent but cyclic frequency, $\omega_{0}(t_{0})= \omega_{0}(0)$, cannot decrease on the average if the system is originally in a stationary…
The features for the unsteady process of thermal equilibration ("the fast motions") in a one-dimensional harmonic crystal lying in a viscous environment (e.g., a gas) are under investigation. It is assumed that initially the displacements…
The initial-boundary value problem for an infinite one-dimensional chain of harmonic oscillators on the half-line is considered. The large time asymptotic behavior of solutions is studied. The initial data of the system are supposed to be a…
We deal with dynamics of the~$\beta$-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou chain with one free end, subjected to the sinusoidal periodic force. We examine evolution of the total energy, supplied at large times. In the harmonic case~($\beta=0$), the…
We study the energy flow between a one dimensional oscillator and a chaotic system with two degrees of freedom in the weak coupling limit. The oscillator's observables are averaged over an initially microcanonical ensemble of trajectories…
