| Research Abstract |
The Fermi-Pasta-Ulam recurrence has been a foundation of the nonlinear physics in the sense that the pursuit of the understanding of the FPU recurrence led to the discovery of "solitons" and the development of chaos theory. Nevertheless, experimental observation of the FPU recurrence is very rare. In this work, we proposed that the FPU recurrence can be actually observed in experiments with one-dimensional Bose gases confined into an optical lattice. Moreover, we showed that strong quantum fluctuations cause significant damping of the FPU oscillation.
