Abstract

An infinite inhomogeneous harmonic chain of particles with different force constants of interaction is considered. The large time behavior of distributions of the solutions to the Cauchy problem with random initial data is studied. The main result of the paper establishes the convergence of these distributions to a limiting measure.
