Nonintegrability is a necessary condition for the thermalization of a generic Hamiltonian system. In practice, the integrability can be broken in various ways. As illustrating examples, we numerically studied the thermalization behaviors of two types of one-dimensional (1D) diatomic chains in the thermodynamic limit. One chain was the diatomic Toda chain whose nonintegrability was introduced by unequal masses. The other chain was the diatomic Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou-β chain whose…

An analytical approach is developed to derive the Lyapunov time, the reciprocal of the largest LyAPunov exponent, for general nonlinear lattices of coupled oscillators, which illustrates how the thermalization process is related to the intrinsic chaotic property.

A scaling analysis is developed that explains how energy transport in one-dimensional chains of particles with three conservation laws may happen in the vicinity of an integrable limit, such as, but not only, the famous Toda model.

It is found that when the mass ratio is slightly different from one, the heat conductivity may keep significantly unchanged over a certain range of the system size and as themass ratio tends to one, this range may expand rapidly.
