We study the statistics and short-times dynamics of the classical and the quantum Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chain in thermal equilibrium. We analyze the distributions of single-particle configurations by integrating out the rest of the system. At…
The tube model is a central concept in polymer physics, and allows to reduce the complex many-filament problem of an entangled polymer solution to a single filament description. We investigate the probability distribution function of…
Dissipation from harmonic energy eigenstates is used to characterize energy transport in binary isotopically disordered (BID) Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU-beta) chains. Using a continuum analog for the corresponding harmonic portion of the…
High-performance graphical processing units (GPU) are used for the repeated parallelised propagation of non-linear partial differential equations on large spatio-temporal grids. The main challenge results as a combination of the requirement…
A possibility that in the FPU problem the critical energy for chaos goes to zero with the increase of the number of particles in the chain is discussed. The distribution for long linear waves in this regime is found and an estimate for new…
In two preceding papers we have shown that, when reaction networks are well-removed from equilibrium, explicit asymptotic and quasi-steady-state approximations can give algebraically-stabilized integration schemes that rival standard…
We present the results of an analytical and numerical study of the long-time behavior for certain Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) lattices viewed as perturbations of the completely integrable Toda lattice. Our main tools are the direct and inverse…
The interplay between chaos and thermalization in weakly non-integrable systems is a rich and complex subject. Interest in this area is further motivated by a desire to develop a unified picture of chaos for both quantum and classical…
In this paper, we develop dispersive PDE techniques for the Fermi--Pasta--Ulam (FPU) system with infinitely many oscillators, and we show that general solutions to the infinite FPU system can be approximated by counter-propagating waves…
Quantum circuits have become a powerful tool in the study of many-body quantum physics, providing insights into both fast-thermalizing chaotic and non-thermalizing integrable many-body dynamics. In this work, we explore a distinct…
We establish a relation between two hallmarks of integrable systems: the relaxation towards the generalized Gibbs ensemble (GGE) and the dissipationless charge transport. We show that the former one is possible only if the so called Mazur…
We briefly review some of the most relevant results that our group obtained in the past, while investigating the dynamics of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) models. A first result is the numerical evidence of the existence of two different kinds…
The well known FPU phenomenon (lack of attainment of equipartition of the mode--energies at low energies, for some exceptional initial data) suggests that the FPU model does not have the mixing property at low energies. We give numerical…
The quench dynamics of the Hubbard model in tilted and harmonic potentials is discussed within the semiclassical picture. Applying the fermionic truncated Wigner approximation (fTWA), the dynamics of imbalances for charge and spin degrees…
The quantum dynamics of fermionic or bosonic many-body systems following external excitation can be successfully studied using two-time nonequilibrium Green's functions (NEGF) or single-time reduced density matrix methods. Approximations…
When two isolated system are brought in contact, they relax to equilibrium via energy exchange. In another setting, when one of the systems is driven and the other is large, the first system reaches a steady-state which is not described by…
We present a dynamical description of slow relaxation processes based on the extension of Onsager's fluctuation theory to systems in local quasi-equilibrium. A non-Markovian Fokker-Planck equation for the conditional probability density is…
In the present work we study the Fermi--Pasta--Ulam (FPU) $\beta $--model involving long--range interactions (LRI) in both the quadratic and quartic potentials, by introducing two independent exponents $\alpha_1$ and $\alpha_2$…
Many experimentally relevant systems are quasi-one-dimensional, consisting of nearly decoupled chains. In these systems, there is a natural separation of scales between the strong intra-chain interactions and the weak interchain coupling.…
One-dimensional systems often possess multiple channels or bands arising from the excitation of transverse degrees of freedom. In the present work, we study the specific processes that dominate the equilibration of multi-channel Fermi gases…
