We demonstrate that a weak disorder in atomic positions introduces spatially localized optical modes in a dense three-dimensional ensemble of immobile two-level atoms arranged in a diamond lattice and coupled by the electromagnetic field.…
We study the single impurity problem in the non-Hermitian lattice described by the non-reciprocal Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model and obtain the phase diagram of localized bound states induced by the impurity. The existence of analytical results…
In this review we consider glass states of several disordered systems: vortices in impure superconductors, amorphous magnets, and nematic liquid crystals in random porous media. All these systems can be described by the random-field or…
In a diffusive conductor the eigenstates are spread over the entire sample. However, with certain probability, an anomalously localized state (ALS) can occur, i.e. the wave function assumes anomalously large values in some region of space.…
When subject to a weak magnetic impurity distribution, the order parameter and quasi-particle energy gap of a weakly disordered bulk s-wave superconductor are suppressed. In the Born scattering limit, recent investigations have shown that…
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…
The charged and magnetic states of isolated impurities dissolved in amorphous metallic alloy are investigated. The Hamiltonian of the system under study is the generalization of Anderson impurity model. Namely, the processes of elastic and…
In a recent Letter Balatsky and Salkola made their conclusion about the absence of localization in disordered d-wave superconductors exploiting the idea that strongly overlapping impurity states formed a network capable to provide the…
We study the localization transition of an atom confined by an external optical lattice in a high-finesse cavity. The atom-cavity coupling yields an effective secondary lattice potential, whose wavelength is incommensurate with the…
The electron states of gapped pseudospin-1 fermions of the $\alpha-{\cal T}_3$ lattice in the Coulomb field of a charged impurity are studied. The free $\alpha-{\cal T}_3$ model has three dispersive bands with two energy gaps between them…

We use a recently proposed measure of quantum correlations (work deficit), to measure the strength of the nonlocality of an equal mixture of two bipartite, orthogonal, but locally indistinguishable separable states. This gives supporting…
Reconstructing a density of states or similar distribution from moments or continued fractions is an important problem in calculating the electronic and vibrational structure of defective or non-crystalline solids. For single bands a…
We predict topologically robust zero energy bulk states in a disordered tight binding lattice. We explore a new kind of order and discuss that zero energy states exist in a system iff its Hamiltonian is noninvertible. We show that they are…
Lattice impurities have recently emerged as a platform in which polarons unveil new quantum many-body states absent in free space and can serve to probe strongly correlated matter. In this work, we investigate two-dimensional lattice…
Localization of waves by disorder is a fundamental physical problem encompassing a diverse spectrum of theoretical, experimental and numerical studies in the context of metal-insulator transition, quantum Hall effect, light propagation in…
A re-entrant localization transition has been predicted recently in a one-dimensional quasiperiodic lattice with dimerized hopping between the nearest-neighbour sites (Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 126} 106803 (2021)) \cite{PhysRevLett.126.106803}.…
We study the localization phenomena in a one-dimensional lattice system with a uniformly moving disordered potential. At a low moving velocity, we find a sliding localized phase in which the initially localized matter wave adiabatically…
Impurity nuclear spin relaxation is studied theoretically. A single impurity generates a bound state localized around the impurity atom in unconventional superconductors. With increasing impurity potential, the relaxation rate $T_1^{-1}$ is…
We take a critical view at the basic definition of extended single particle states in a non-translationally invariant system. For this, we present the case of a hierarchical lattice and incorporate long range interactions that are also…
