Taming nonlinear energy diffusion: The case of time-crystal energy condensates
P. I. Hurtado, G. Cortés-Guillén
We study a bulk-driven nonlinear variant of the Kipnis-Marchioro-Presutti model of stochastic energy diffusion in which local collisions are biased to induce a net energy flow, res…

Scaling laws for stationary Navier-Stokes-Fourier flows and the unreasonable effectiveness of hydrodynamics at the molecular level
P. I. Hurtado, J. J. del Pozo, P. L. Garrido
Hydrodynamics provides a universal description of the emergent collective dynamics of vastly different many-body systems, based solely on their symmetries and conservation laws. He…

Critical behavior of a programmable time-crystal lattice gas
R. Hurtado-Gutiérrez, C. Pérez-Espigares, P. I. Hurtado
Time crystals are many-body systems whose ground state spontaneously breaks time-translation symmetry and thus exhibits long-range spatiotemporal order and robust periodic motion.…
