Abstract

In this paper, we study the quasi-periodic operators Hϵ,ω(x)H_{\epsilon,\omega}(x): (Hϵ,ω(x)ψ)n=ϵkZWkψnk+V(x+nω)ψn,(H_{\epsilon,\omega}(x)\vec{\psi})_n=\epsilon\sum_{k\in\mathbb{Z}}W_k\vec{\psi}_{n-k}+V(x+n\omega)\vec{\psi}_n, where ψ={ψn}2(Z,Cl), V(x)=diag(v1(x),,vl(x))\vec{\psi}=\{\vec{\psi}_n\}\in\ell^2(\mathbb{Z},\mathbb{C}^l),\ V(x)=\text{diag}\left(v_1(x),\cdots,v_l(x)\right) with viv_i (1il1\leq i \leq l) being real analytic functions on T=R/Z\mathbb{T}=\mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z} and WkW_k (kZk\in\mathbb{Z}) being l×ll\times l matrices satisfying WkC0eρk\|W_k\|\leq C_0e^{-\rho|k|}. Using techniques developed by Bourgain and Goldstein [\textit{{Ann. of Math. 152(3):835--879, 2000}}], we show that for ϵϵ0(V,ρ,l,C0)|\epsilon|\leq \epsilon_{0}(V,\rho,l,C_0) ( depending only on V,ρ,l,C0V,\rho, l, C_0) and xR/Zx\in \mathbb{R}/\mathbb{Z}, there is some full Lebesgue measure subset F\mathcal{F} of the Diophantine frequencies such that Hϵ,ω(x)H_{\epsilon,\omega}(x) exhibits Anderson localization if ωF\omega\in \mathcal{F}.
