Hydrodynamic limit for a disordered harmonic chain
Cédric Bernardin, François Huveneers, Stefano Olla
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 elongatio…
Response to a small external force and fluctuations of a passive particle in a one-dimensional diffusive environment
François Huveneers
We investigate the long time behavior of a passive particle evolving in a one-dimensional diffusive random environment, with diffusion constant . We consider two cases: (a) The…
Many-body delocalization as a quantum avalanche
Thimothée Thiery, François Huveneers, Markus Müller +1
We propose a multi-scale diagonalization scheme to study disordered one-dimensional chains, in particular the transition between many-body localization (MBL) and the ergodic phase,…
How a small quantum bath can thermalize long localized chains
David J. Luitz, François Huveneers, Wojciech de Roeck
We investigate the stability of the many-body localized (MBL) phase for a system in contact with a single ergodic grain, modelling a Griffiths region with low disorder. Our numeric…
Classical and quantum systems: transport due to rare events
François Huveneers
We review possible mechanisms for energy transfer based on 'rare' or 'non-perturbative' effects, in physical systems that present a many-body localized phenomenology. The main focu…
