Spectral Properties of the Chalker-Coddington Network

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We numerically investigate the spectral statistics of pseudo-energies for the unitary network operator U of the Chalker--Coddington network. The shape of the level spacing distribution as well the scaling of its moments is compared to known results for quantum Hall systems. We also discuss the influence of multifractality on the tail of the spacing distribution.
