This review provides an up-to-date account of energy transport in Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) chains, a key testbed for nonequilibrium statistical physics. We discuss the transition from the historical puzzle of thermalization to the…

The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) chains of particles in \textit{thermal equilibrium} are studied from both wave-interaction and particle-interaction points of view. It is shown that, even in a strongly nonlinear regime, the chain in thermal…

We demonstrate that in the atomic-scale limit the thermal conductance $\mathcal K$ of the FPU model and its variants strongly deviates from the mesoscopic behavior due to the relevance of contact resistance. As a result, atomic chains…

This paper proposes a new methodological framework within which the heat conductance in 1D lattices can be studied. The total process of heat conductance is separated into two parts where the first one is the equilibrium process at equal…
