V Diffusion of a Wavepacket in nonlinear random<br />

Arrays: Early numerical investigation<br />

When linear modes are localized (Anderson localization)<br />

no diffusion but nonlinearity couples the linear Anderson modes<br />

Then, energy diffusion?<br />

Many early works conclude subdiffusion!<br />

Bourbonnay-Maynard (1990) (random FPU)<br />

Shepelyansky (1994), Molina (1997)…. (DNLS)<br />

Snyder-Kirpatrick(random FPU) (2006)<br />

Pikovsky-Shepeliansky(2008)<br />

Numerical investigation of the second moment versus time<br />

Diffusion is subcritical t α<br />

where α ~ 2/5 (Shepelyansky) … 0.27 (Molina) etc....<br />
