Abstract
We study the effect of conservation laws on the finite-temperature transport properties in one-dimensional integrable quantum many-body systems. We show that the energy current is closely related to the first conservation law in these systems and therefore the thermal transport coefficients are anomalous. Using an inequality on the time decay of current correlations we show how the existence of conserved quantities implies a finite charge stiffness (weight of the zero-frequency component of the conductivity) and so ideal conductivity at finite temperatures.
