We prove dynamical and spectral localization at all energies for the discrete generalized Anderson model via the Kunz-Souillard approach to localization. This is an extension of the original Kunz-Souillard approach to localization for…

The one-parameter scaling theory of localization predicts that all states in a disordered two-dimensional system with broken time reversal symmetry are localized even in the presence of strong spin-orbit coupling. While at constant strong…

Localization may survive in periodically driven (Floquet) quantum systems, but is generally unstable for aperiodic drives. In this work, we identify a hidden conservation law originating from a chiral symmetry in a disordered spin-1/2 XX…

The spectral localizer consists of placing the Hamiltonian in a Dirac trap. For topological insulators its spectral asymmetry is equal to the topological invariants, providing a highly efficient tool for numerical computation. Here this…

Anderson localization of wave-functions at zero energy in quasi-1D systems of $N$ disordered chains with inter-chain coupling $t$ is examined. Localization becomes weaker than for the 1D disordered chain ($t=0$) when $t$ is smaller than the…

This paper is devoted to the study of the random displacement model on $\R^d$. We prove that, in the weak displacement regime, Anderson and dynamical localization holds near the bottom of the spectrum under a generic assumption on the…

We study localization in two- and three channel quasi-1D systems using multichain tight-binding Anderson models with nearest-neighbour interchain hopping. In the three chain case we discuss both the case of free- and that of periodic…
