Andersons groundbreaking discovery that the presence of stochastic imperfections in a crystal may result in a sudden breakdown of conductivity revolutionized our understanding of disordered media. After stimulating decades of lively…

We consider the notion of equilibration for an isolated quantum system exhibiting Anderson localization. The system is assumed to be in a pure state, i.e., described by a wave-function undergoing unitary dynamics. We focus on the simplest…

Numerical approaches to Anderson localization face the problem of having to treat large localization lengths while being restricted to finite system sizes. We show that by finite-size scaling of the probability distribution of the local…

Anderson localization provides a challenge to numerical approaches due to the inherent randomness, and hence absence of simple symmetries, in its discrete Hamiltonian representation. Numerous algorithmic approaches have been developed or…
