Macroscopic energy diffusion for a chain of anharmonic oscillators (1109.5297v3)
Published 24 Sep 2011 in math-ph, cond-mat.stat-mech, math.MP, and math.PR
Abstract: We study the energy diffusion in a chain of anharmonic oscillators where the Hamiltonian dynamics is perturbed by a local energy conserving noise. We prove that under diffusive rescaling of space-time, energy fluctuations diffuse and evolve following an infinite dimensional linear stochastic differential equation driven by the linearized heat equation. We also give variational expressions for the thermal diffusivity and some upper and lower bounds.
