The Heisenberg spin chain is a canonical integrable model. As such, it features stable ballistically propagating quasiparticles, but spin transport is sub-ballistic at any nonzero temperature: an initially localized spin fluctuation spreads…

We investigate, via numerical simulation, heat transport in the nonequilibrium stationary state (NESS) of the 1D classical Toda chain with an additional pinning potential, which destroys momentum conservation. The NESS is produced by…

Integrable spin chains with a continuous non-Abelian symmetry, such as the one-dimensional isotropic Heisenberg model, show superdiffusive transport with little theoretical understanding. Although recent studies reported a surprising…

Isotropic integrable spin chains such as the Heisenberg model feature superdiffusive spin transport belonging to an as-yet-unidentified dynamical universality class closely related to that of Kardar, Parisi, and Zhang (KPZ). To determine…

We report a systematic study of finite-temperature spin transport in quantum and classical one-dimensional magnets with isotropic spin interactions, including both integrable and non-integrable models. Employing a phenomenological framework…

We study transport of local magnetization in a Heisenberg spin-1/2 chain at zero temperature. The system is initially prepared in a highly excited pure state far from equilibrium and its evolution is analyzed via exact diagonalization.…

We investigate numerically the magnetisation dynamics of an array of nano-disks interacting through the magneto-dipolar coupling. In the presence of a temperature gradient, the chain reaches a non-equilibrium steady state where energy and…

After reviewing the main features of anomalous energy transport in 1D systems, we report simulations performed with chains of noisy anharmonic oscillators. The stochastic terms are added in such a way to conserve total energy and momentum,…
