Energy absorption by ‘sparse’ systems: beyond linear response theory
Energy absorption by ‘sparse’ systems: beyond linear response theory
The analysis of the response to driving in the case of weakly chaotic or weakly interacting systems should go beyond linear response theory. Due to the "sparsity" of the perturbation matrix, a resistor network picture of transitions between energy levels is essential. The Kubo formula is modified, replacing the "algebraic" …
