5 / 6-Superdiffusion of Energy for Coupled Charged Harmonic Oscillators in a Magnetic Field

Abstract

We consider a one-dimensional infinite chain of coupled charged har- monic oscillators in a magnetic field with a small stochastic perturbation of order $\epsilon$. We prove that for a space-time scale of order $\epsilon$^{-1} the density of energy distribution (Wigner distribution) evolves according to a linear phonon Boltzmann equation. We also prove that an appropriately scaled limit of solutions of the lin- ear phonon Boltzmann equation is a solution of the fractional diffusion equation with exponent 5/6.
