2 Introduction

3 Introduction Fourier s law : Consider a macroscopic system in contact with two heat baths with different temperatures T l T r. When the system reaches its steady state < > ss, one expects Fourier s law holds: < J(q) > ss = κ(t (q)) (T (q)), q macroscopic point

4 Introduction Fourier s law : Consider a macroscopic system in contact with two heat baths with different temperatures T l T r. When the system reaches its steady state < > ss, one expects Fourier s law holds: < J(q) > ss = κ(t (q)) (T (q)), q macroscopic point J(q) is the energy current; T (q) the local temperature; κ(t ) the conductivity.

5 Introduction Fourier s law : Consider a macroscopic system in contact with two heat baths with different temperatures T l T r. When the system reaches its steady state < > ss, one expects Fourier s law holds: < J(q) > ss = κ(t (q)) (T (q)), q macroscopic point J(q) is the energy current; T (q) the local temperature; κ(t ) the conductivity. If system has (microscopic) size N, finite conductivity means < J > ss N 1.

11 Hamiltonian microscopic models : Fermi-Pasta-Ulam chains H = { p 2 x + W (q x) + } V (q x q y ), Λ Z d 2m x 2 4 x Λ y x W : pinning potential; V : interaction potential If V (r) = α r 2, W (q) = ν q 2 (harmonic chain), < > ss is an explicit Gaussian measure and < J > ss 1 : Fourier s law is false (Lebowitz, Lieb, Rieder 67) Non linearity is extremely important to have normal heat conduction. But it is not sufficient : It has been observed experimentally and numerically for nonlinear chains that if d 2 and momentum is conserved ( W = 0, unpinned) then conductivity is still infinite (finite otherwise).
