Apart from the difficulty of producing highly scattering samples, a major challenge in the observation of Anderson localization of 3D light is identifying an unambiguous signature of the phase transition in experimentally feasible…

The three-dimensional Anderson model with a rectangular distribution of site disorder displays two distinct localization-delocalization transitions, against varying disorder intensity, for a relatively narrow range of Fermi energies. Such…

It is shown that the Anderson transition (AT) in 3d obeys a two-parameter scaling law, derived from a pair of anisotropic scaling transformations, and corresponding critical exponents and scaling function calculated, using a high-precision…

In a recent experiment [X. Yu et al., arXiv:2602.07654], energy-resolved measurements of an atomic matter wave spreading in a speckle potential enabled the direct observation of the three-dimensional Anderson transition. In this work, we…

The single parameter scaling hypothesis is the foundation of our understanding of the Anderson transition. However, the conductance of a disordered system is a fluctuating quantity which does not obey a one parameter scaling law. It is…

We study the Anderson transition on a generic model of random graphs with a tunable branching parameter $1<K\le 2$, through large scale numerical simulations and finite-size scaling analysis. We find that a single transition separates a…

We present numerical results for the statistics of $z$'s ($z$'s are defined as logarithm of eigenvalues of the transfermatrix $T^\dag T$) at the critical points of Anderson transition in 3D and 4D. The change of the density of $z$ due to…

Common belief, confirmed by existing experiments, is that arbitrarily weak disorder should lead to spatial localization of eigenmodes of scalar wave equations when wave propagation is two-dimensional (2D). We predict that contrary to this…

We study the scattering modes of light in a three-dimensional disordered medium, in the scalar approximation and above the critical density for Anderson localization. Localized modes represent a minority of the total number of modes, even…

The Anderson model for independent electrons in a disordered potential is transformed analytically and exactly to a basis of random extended states leading to a variant of augmented space. In addition to the widely-accepted phase diagrams…

We study Anderson localization of ultracold atoms in weak, one-dimensional speckle potentials, using perturbation theory beyond Born approximation. We show the existence of a series of sharp crossovers (effective mobility edges) between…

Single-particle transport in disordered potentials is investigated on scales below the localization length. The dynamics on those scales is concretely analyzed for the 3-dimensional Anderson model with Gaussian on-site disorder. This…

Recent experiments on non-interacting ultra-cold atoms in correlated disorder have yielded conflicting results regarding the so-called mobility edge, i.e. the energy threshold separating Anderson localized from diffusive states. At the same…

The Anderson localization transition is one of the most well studied examples of a zero temperature quantum phase transition. On the other hand, many open questions remain about the phenomenology of disordered systems driven far out of…

The macroscopic transport properties in a disordered potential, namely diffusion and weak/strong localization, closely depend on the microscopic and statistical properties of the disorder itself. This dependence is rich of counter-intuitive…

Transport of coherent waves in multiple-scattering media may exhibit fundamental, non intuitive phenomena such as halt of diffusion by disorder called Anderson localization. For electromagnetic waves, this phenomenon was observed only in…
