Superdiffusive finite-temperature spin or charge transport has been recently observed in a variety of integrable spin and Hubbard chains or ladders, with nonabelian global symmetries. While it is understood that such superdiffusive dynamics is caused by giant Goldstone-like quasiparticles stabilized by integrability, the type of transport in systems which are not perfectly integrable is still obscure. We here show that integrability-breaking perturbations that preserve the nonabelian symmetry couple weakly to these giant Goldstone-like quasiparticles, so they are long-lived and give divergent contributions to the low-frequency conductivity σ(ω). We find, perturbatively, that σ(ω) ∼ ω −1/3 for translation-invariant static perturbations that conserve energy, and σ(ω) ∼ | log ω| for noisy perturbations. The (presumable) crossover to regular diffusion appears to lie beyond perturbation theory. By contrast, integrability-breaking perturbations that break the nonabelian symmetry yield conventional diffusion. Numerical evidence supports the distinction between these two classes of perturbations.
