title: Normal and anomalous heat transport in one-dimensional classical lattices.
abstract: We present analytic and numerical results on several models of one-dimensional (1D) classical lattices with the goal of determining the origins of anomalous heat transport and the conditions for normal transport in these systems. Some of the recent results in the literature are reviewed and several original "toy" models are added that provide key elements to determine which dynamical properties are necessary and which are sufficient for certain types of heat transport. We demonstrate with numerical examples that chaos in the sense of positivity of Lyapunov exponents is neither necessary nor sufficient to guarantee normal transport in 1D lattices. Quite surprisingly, we find that in the absence of momentum conservation, even ergodicity of an isolated system is not necessary for the normal transport. Specifically, we demonstrate clearly the validity of the Fourier law in a pseudo-integrable particle chain.
