Dimensionality dependence of the wave function statistics at the Anderson transition

Disordered Systems and Neural Networks 2009-11-07 v1

Abstract

The statistics of critical wave functions at the Anderson transition in three and four dimensions are studied numerically. The distribution of the inverse participation ratios (IPR) PqP_q is shown to acquire a scale-invariant form in the limit of large system size. Multifractality spectra governing the scaling of the ensemble-averaged IPRs are determined. Conjectures concerning the IPR statistics and the multifractality at the Anderson transition in a high spatial dimensionality are formulated.
