FPU models, in dimension one, are perturbations either of the linear model or of the Toda model; perturbations of the linear model include the usual $\beta$-model, perturbations of Toda include the usual $\alpha+\beta$ model. In this paper…

The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) one-dimensional Hamiltonian includes a quartic term which guarantees ergodicity of the system in the thermodynamic limit. Consistently, the Boltzmann factor $P(\epsilon) \sim e^{-\beta \epsilon}$ describes its…
Toda lattice or FPUT chain-like dynamics have been regarded as the prerequisite condition to explain the length dependency of high thermal conductivity of low-dimensional systems at the nanoscale. In this paper, a hypothetical condition is…
In their seminal work, Fermi, Pasta, Ulam and Tsingou explored the connection between statistical mechanics and dynamical properties, such as chaos and ergodicity. Even today, seventy years later, the topic is not fully understood: while…
We prove analytically and show numerically that the dynamics of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou chain is characterised by a transient Burgers turbulence regime on a wide range of time and energy scales. This regime is present at long…
Time-dependent electronic structure methods provide an efficient, accurate, and robust alternative to traditional time dependent methods for computing both linear and non-linear optical properties. With this in mind, we have developed the…
In this letter we report numerical results giving, as a function of time, the energy fluctuation of a Fermi-Pasta-Ulam system in dynamical contact with a heat bath, the initial data of the FPU system being extracted from a Gibbs…
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 a two-dimensional fermionic QFT used to model 1D strongly correlated electrons in the presence of a time-dependent impurity that drives the system out of equilibrium. In contrast to previous investigations, we consider a dynamic…
We study the original $\alpha$-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) system with $N=16,32$ and $64$ masses connected by a nonlinear quadratic spring. Our approach is based on resonant wave-wave interaction theory, i.e. we assume that, in the weakly…
