Over the past decade, substantial progress has been made in clarifying a central question of the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou problem: whether weakly nonlinear lattice systems thermalize and, if so, through what mechanisms. The current…
The multi-wave exact resonance condition is a fundamental principle for understanding energy transfer in condensed matter systems, yet the dynamical evolution of waves satisfying this condition remains unexplored. Here, we reveal that the…
The pioneering computer simulations of the energy relaxation mechanisms performed by Fermi, Pasta and Ulam can be considered as the first attempt of understanding energy relaxation and thus heat conduction in lattices of nonlinear…
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 numerically study a one dimensional, nonlinear lattice model which in the linear limit is relevant to the study of bending (flexural) waves. In contrast with the classic one dimensional mass-spring system, the linear dispersion relation…
Whether and how a system reaches thermalization is a fundamental issue of statistical physics. While for one-dimensional lattices this issue has been intensively studied in terms of energy equipartition for more than half a century, few…
In the present work, we review two well-established quasi-continuum models of a Fermi-Pasta-Ulam lattice with Hertzian type potentials, and utilize these two models to approximate the discrete dispersive shock waves (DDSWs) which are…
Understanding the realization of thermal equilibrium through the thermalization process in a many-body system is a fundamental and complex scientific question, bridging thermodynamics and classical dynamics and connecting to a host of…
The foundations of weak turbulence theory is explored through its application to the (alpha) Fermi-Pasta-Ulam (FPU) model, a simple weakly nonlinear dispersive system. A direct application of the standard kinetic equations would miss…
One-dimensional particle chains are fundamental models to explain anomalous thermal conduction in low-dimensional solids like nanotubes and nanowires. In these systems the thermal energy is carried by phonons, i.e. propagating lattice…
In these lecture notes, we present, contextualize, and discuss the phenomenon of metastability (or prethermalization) in the Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou lattice and similar models from the viewpoint of perturbation theory. We provide an…
We study the propagation of solitary waves in a Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) lattice with small random heterogeneity in the linear spring force. Perturbed by the random environment, solitary waves lose energy through a radiative tail,…
Understanding the rich spatial and temporal structures in nonequilibrium thermal environments is a major subject of statistical mechanics. Because universal laws, based on an ensemble of systems, are mute on an individual system, exploring…
We apply Wave Turbulence theory to describe the dynamics on nonlinear one-dimensional chains. We consider $\alpha$ and $\beta$ Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) systems, and the discrete nonlinear Klein-Gordon chain. We demonstrate that…
The aim of this article is to study the attenuation of transient low-frequency waves in 2D lattices in both plane and antiplane problems. The main idea of this article is that analytical solutions to problems of mechanics of discrete…
The spatiotemporal propagation of a momentum excitation on the finite Fermi-Pasta-Ulam lattices is investigated. The competition between the solitary wave and phonons gives rise to interesting propagation behaviors. For a moderate…
We present an analytical method of studying "extended" electronic eigenstates of a diamond hierarchical lattice, which may be taken as the simplest of the hierarchical models recently proposed for stretched polymers. We use intuitive…
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…
We find non-monotonic equilibrium energy distributions, qualitatively different from the Fermi-Dirac and Bose-Einstein forms, in strongly-interacting many-body chaotic systems. The effect emerges in systems with finite energy spectra,…
It has previously been suggested that small subsystems of closed quantum systems thermalize under some assumptions; however, this has been rigorously shown so far only for systems with very weak interaction between subsystems. In this work,…
