The density of states, even for a perfectly ordered tight-binding model, can exhibit a tail-like feature at the top of the band, provided the hopping integral falls off in space slowly enough. We apply the coherent potential approximation…

We study systems which are close to or within the many-body localized (MBL) regime and are driven by strong electric field. In the ergodic regime, the disorder extends applicability of the equilibrium linear--response theory to stronger…
We study the dynamics of an electron wave-packet in a two-dimensional square lattice with an aperiodic site potential in the presence of an external uniform electric field. The aperiodicity is described by $\epsilon_{\bf m} =…
