A self-energy-functional approach is applied to construct cluster approximations for correlated lattice models. It turns out that the cluster-perturbation theory (Senechal et al, PRL 84, 522 (2000)) and the cellular dynamical mean-field…
In the recent paper [I.M.Suslov, JETP {\bf 114} (2012) 107] a new scaling theory of electron localization was proposed. We show that numerical data for the quasi-one dimensional Anderson model do not support predictions of this theory.
Using a finite-size scaling method, we calculate the localization properties of a disordered two-dimensional electron system in the presence of a random magnetic field. Below a critical energy $E_c$ all states are localized and the…

Anderson localization of classical waves in disordered media is a fundamental physical phenomenon that has attracted attention in the past three decades. More recently, localization of polar excitations in nanostructured metal-dielectric…
