We assess the ergodic properties of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou-$\alpha$ model for generic initial conditions using a Toda integral. It serves as an adiabatic invariant for the system and a suitable observable to measure its equilibrium…
We study the thermalization dynamics of one-dimensional diatomic lattices (which represents the simplest system possessing multi-branch phonons), exemplified by the famous Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT)-$\beta$ and the Toda models. Here we…
We study the slow relaxation of isolated quasi-integrable systems, focusing on the classical problem of Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPU) chain. It is well-known that the initial energy sharing between different linear-modes can be inferred by…
We study the thermalization slowing down of Fermi-Past-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) chains and of Toda chains with nonintegrable boundaries. We focus on the transition from FPUT to harmonic chains, from FPUT to Toda chains with fixed boundaries, and…
We will discuss various aspects of thermalization, chaos and hydrodynamics in one dimensional classical Hamiltonian systems. We study two problems. First, we will revisit the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) problem in order to understand…
We provide here an explicit example of Khinchin's idea that the validity of equilibrium statistical mechanics in high dimensional systems does not depend on the details of the dynamics. This point of view is supported by extensive numerical…
Understanding the interplay between different wave excitations, such as phonons and localized solitons, is crucial for developing coarse-grained descriptions of many-body, near-integrable systems. We treat the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou…
We consider the original $\beta$-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou ($\beta$-FPUT) system; numerical simulations and theoretical arguments suggest that, for a finite number of masses, a statistical equilibrium state is reached independently of the…
We investigate the equilibration process of the strongly coupled quartic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) model by adding Langevin baths to the ends of the chain. The time evolution of the system is investigated by means of extensive…
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…
The observation of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) paradox, namely the lack of equipartition in the evolution of a normal mode in a nonlinear chain on unexpectedly long times, is arguably the most famous numerical experiment in the…
We study the transition from integrability to chaos for the three-particle Fermi-Pasta-Ulam- Tsingou (FPUT) model. We can show that both the quartic b-FPUT model ($\alpha$ = 0) and the cubic one ($\beta$ = 0) are integrable by introducing…
The equilibration of sinusoidally modulated distribution of the kinetic temperature is analyzed in the $\beta$-Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou chain with different degrees of nonlinearity and for different wavelengths of temperature modulation.…
We investigate the long term evolution of trajectories in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) system, using as a probe the first non--trivial integral $J$ in the hierarchy of integrals of the corresponding Toda lattice model. To this end we perform…
The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam $\alpha$-model of harmonic oscillators with cubic anharmonic interactions is studied from a statistical mechanical point of view. Systems of N= 32 to 128 oscillators appear to be large enough to suggest statistical…
We investigate the equilibration and thermalization properties of quantum systems interacting with a finite dimensional environment. By exploiting the concept of time averaged states, we introduce a completely positive map which allows to…
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…
We explore the connection between chaos, thermalization and ergodicity in a linear chain of $N$ interacting dipoles. Starting from the ground state, and considering chains of different numbers of dipoles, we introduce single site…
A numerical and analytical study of the relaxation to equilibrium of both the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) alpha-model and the integrable Toda model, when the fundamental mode is initially excited, is reported. We show that the dynamics of both…
We investigate the thermalization of a stochastic system with discrete phase space, initially at equilibrium at temperature $T_i$ and then termalizing in an environment at temperature $T_f$ , considering both cases $T_i > T_f$ and $T_i <…
