We derive Euler equations from a Hamiltonian microscopic dynamics. The microscopic system is a one-dimensional disordered harmonic chain, and the dynamics is either quantum or classical. This chain is an Anderson insulator with a symmetry protected mode: thermal fluctuations are frozen while the low modes ensure the transport of elongation, momentum and mechanical energy, that evolve according to Euler equations in an hyperbolic scaling limit. In this paper, we strengthen considerably the…

We study the hydrodynamic limit, in the hyperbolic space-time scaling, for a one-dimensional unpinned chain of quantum harmonic oscillators with random masses. To the best of our knowledge, this is

Ballistic and superdiffusive scales in the macroscopic evolution of a chain of oscillators

We consider a one dimensional infinite acoustic chain of harmonic oscillators whose dynamics are perturbed by a random exchange of velocities, such that the energy and momentum of the chain are

Hydrodynamic Limit for a Disordered Harmonic Chain

We consider a one-dimensional unpinned chain of harmonic oscillators with random masses. We prove that after hyperbolic scaling of space and time the distributions of the elongation, momentum, and

Hydrodynamic Limit for a Hamiltonian System with Boundary Conditions and Conservative Noise

We study the hyperbolic scaling limit for a chain of N coupled anharmonic oscillators. The chain is attached to a point on the left and there is a force (tension) τ acting on the right. In order to

Ballistic macroscopic fluctuation theory

We introduce a new universal framework describing fluctuations and correlations in quantum and classical many-body systems, at the Euler hydrodynamic scale of space and time. The framework adapts the

One of the most profound questions of mathematical physics is that of establishing from first principles the hydrodynamic equations in large, isolated, strongly interacting many-body systems. This

Hydrodynamical limit for a Hamiltonian system with weak noise

Starting from a general hamiltonian system with superstable pairwise potential, we construct a stochastic dynamics by adding a noise term which exchanges the momenta of nearby particles. We prolve

Macroscopic evolution of mechanical and thermal energy in a harmonic chain with random flip of velocities

We consider an unpinned chain of harmonic oscillators with periodic boundary conditions, whose dynamics is perturbed by a random flip of the sign of the velocities. The dynamics conserves the total

Quantum Harmonic Oscillator Systems with Disorder

We study many-body properties of quantum harmonic oscillator lattices with disorder. A sufficient condition for dynamical localization, expressed as a zero-velocity Lieb-Robinson bound, is formulated

It is shown that a bounded, isolated quantum system of many particles in a specific initial state will approach thermal equilibrium if the energy eigenfunctions which are superposed to form that state obey Berry's conjecture, and argued that these results constitute a sound foundation for quantum statistical mechanics.
