We study the spatial structure of wave functions with exceptionally high local amplitudes in the Anderson model of localisation. By means of exact diagonalisations of finite systems, we obtain and analyse images of these wave functions: we…

We have calculated wave functions and matrix elements of the dipole operator in the two- and three-dimensional Anderson model of localization and have studied their statistical properties in the limit of weak disorder. In particular, we…

We review recent progress in our theoretical understanding of strongly correlated fermion systems in the presence of disorder. Results were obtained by the application of a powerful nonperturbative approach, the Dynamical Mean-Field Theory…

We reduce Dirac's spinor formalism for a spin 1/2 particle to a complex wavefunction description in curved spacetimes. We consider a localized fermionic particle in curved spacetimes and perform an expansion in terms of the acceleration and…

Effects of randomness have supplied fundamental problems in condensed matter physics and localization due to interference of quantum mechanical electrons are well studied as the Anderson localization. Although we have well established…

We derive a field-theoretical representation for the moments of the eigenstates in the generalized Anderson model. The representation is exact and can be used for the Anderson model with generic non-random hopping elements in any…

We study the eigenvalue spectrum of different lattice Dirac operators (staggered, fixed point, overlap) and discuss their dependence on the topological sectors. Although the model is 2D (the Schwinger model with massless fermions) our…

When a free Fermi gas on a lattice is subject to the action of a linear potential it does not drift away, as one would naively expect, but it remains spatially localized. Here we revisit this phenomenon, known as Stark localization, within…

In analogy with usual Anderson localization taking place in time-independent disordered quantum systems where the disorder acts in configuration space, systems exposed to temporally disordered potentials can display Anderson localization in…

Within the framework of tight binding models, aperiodic systems are mapped to a renormalized lattice with a dimer defect. In models exhibiting metal-insulator transition, the dimer acts like a resonant cavity and explains the existence of…

Localization properties of non-interacting quantum particles in one-dimensional incommensurate lattices are investigated with an exponential short-range hopping that is beyond the minimal nearest-neighbor tight-binding model. Energy…

The spatial discretization of the single-cone Dirac Hamiltonian on the surface of a topological insulator or superconductor needs a special "staggered" grid, to avoid the appearance of a spurious second cone in the Brillouin zone. We adapt…
