Universal law of thermalization for one-dimensional perturbed Toda lattices

The Toda lattice is a nonlinear but integrable system. Here we study the thermalization problem in one-dimensional, perturbed Toda lattices in the thermodynamic limit. We show that the thermalization time, T _eq , follows a universal law; i.e. T _eq  ∼  ϵ ^−2 , where the perturbation strength , ϵ ,...
