Consider a chain of nonlinear coupled oscillators. Assuming known the
(deterministic) equation governing the dynamics of the particles, is that
possible to define a system's temperature? Can one be sure that a system of
coupled nonlinear oscillators will evolve to a state well described by
statistical physics? Do a bibliographic research on this subject, in
particular on Fermi--Ulam--Pasta model.
