Subdiffusion in the Nonlinear Schroedinger Equation with Disorder

Statistical Mechanics 2015-05-14 v1 Disordered Systems and Neural Networks

Abstract

The nonlinear Schroedinger equation in the presence of disorder is considered. The dynamics of an initially localized wave packet is studied. A subdiffusive spreading of the wave packet is explained in the framework of a continuous time random walk. A probabilistic description of subdiffusion is suggested and a transport exponent of subdiffusion is obtained to be 2/5.
