Non-universal corrections to the level curvature distribution beyond random matrix theory

Condensed Matter 2009-10-28 v1

Abstract

The level curvature distribution function is studied beyond the random matrix theory for the case of T-breaking perturbations over the orthogonal ensemble. The leading correction to the shape of the level curvature distribution is calculated using the nonlinear sigma-model. The sign of the correction depends on the presence or absence of the global gauge invariance and is different for perturbations caused by the constant vector-potential and by the random magnetic field. Scaling arguments are discussed that indicate on the qualitative difference in the level statistics in the dirty metal phase for space dimensionalities d<4d<4 and d>4d>4.
