Abstract
We demonstrate the level statistics in the vicinity of the Anderson transition in dimensions to be universal and drastically different from both Wigner-Dyson in the metallic regime and Poisson in the insulator regime. The variance of the number of levels in a given energy interval with is proved to behave as where and is the correlation length exponent. The inequality , shown to be required by an exact sum rule, results from nontrivial cancellations (due to the causality and scaling requirements) in calculating the two-level correlation function.
