Since the basic work of Peierls it is common consensus thatweakly nonlinear wave equations with random initial data can be wellapproximated by a kinetic equation. I will explain the precise conjecture.I will also discuss my recent joint work with J. Lukkarinen, where wecontrol the kinetic limit in special cases for the lattice nonlinearSchroedinger equation.
