Behavior and Breakdown of Higher-Order Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou Recurrences | Salvatore D. Pace

1 Nov 2018 | Abstract: | We investigate numerically the existence and stability of higher-order
recurrences (HoRs), including super-recurrences, super-super-recurrences, etc.,
in the alpha and beta Fermi-Pasta-Ulam-Tsingou (FPUT) lattices for initial
conditions in the fundamental normal mode. Our results represent a considerable
extension of the pioneering work of Tuck and Menzel on super-recurrences. For
fixed lattice sizes, we observe and study apparent singularities in the periods
of these HoRs, speculated to be caused by nonlinear resonances. Interestingly,
these singularities depend very sensitively on the initial energy and the
respective nonlinear parameters. Furthermore, we compare the mechanisms by
which the super-recurrences in the two model’s breakdown as the initial energy
and respective nonlinear parameters are increased. The breakdown of
super-recurrences in the beta-FPUT lattice is associated with the destruction
of the so-called metastable state and hence is associated with relaxation
towards equilibrium. For the alpha-FPUT lattice, we find this is not the case
and show that the super-recurrences break down while the lattice is still
metastable. We close with comments on the generality of our results for
different lattice sizes. | Source: | arXiv, 1811.0663 | Services: | Forum | Review | PDF | Favorites |
