Poisson Statistics for Eigenvalues of Continuum Random Schr\"odinger Operators

Mathematical Physics 2009-07-09 v4 math.MP

Abstract

We show absence of energy levels repulsion for the eigenvalues of random Schr\"odinger operators in the continuum. We prove that, in the localization region at the bottom of the spectrum, the properly rescaled eigenvalues of a continuum Anderson Hamiltonian are distributed as a Poisson point process with intensity measure given by the density of states. We also obtain simplicity of the eigenvalues. We derive a Minami estimate for continuum Anderson Hamiltonians. We also give a simple and transparent proof of Minami's estimate for the (discrete) Anderson model.
