Abstract: We consider random generalizations of a quantum model of infinite range introduced by Emch and Radin. The generalization allows a neat extension from the class l1 of absolutely summable lattice potentials to the optimal class l2 of square summable potentials first considered by Khanin and Sinai and generalised by van Enter and van Hemmen. The approach to equilibrium in the case of a Gaussian distribution is proved to be faster than for a Bernoulli distribution for both short-range and long-range lattice potentials. While exponential decay to equilibrium is excluded in the nonrandom l1 case, it is proved to occur for both short and long range potentials for Gaussian distributions, and for potentials of class l2 in the Bernoulli case. Open problems are discussed.
