We resolve an existing question concerning the location of the mobility edge for operators with a hopping term and a random potential on the Bethe lattice. The model has been among the earliest studied for Anderson localization, and it…
We study two coupled 3D lattices, one of them featuring uncorrelated on-site disorder and the other one being fully ordered, and analyze how the interlattice hopping affects the localization-delocalization transition of the former and how…
We consider an operator $P_V=(1+V)P$ on $\ell^2(Z^d)$, where $P$ is the transition operator of a symmetric irreducible random walk, and $V$ is a ``sparse'' potential. We first characterize the essential spectra of this operator. Secondly,…
We apply a recently developed approach (Liaw 2013) to study the existence of extended states for the three dimensional discrete random Schroedinger operator at small disorder. The conclusion of delocalization at small disorder agrees with…
We consider a closed macroscopic quantum system in a pure state $\psi_t$ evolving unitarily and take for granted that different macro states correspond to mutually orthogonal subspaces $\mathcal{H}_\nu$ (macro spaces) of Hilbert space, each…
The transport of excitations between pinned particles in many physical systems may be mapped to single-particle models with power-law hopping, $1/r^a$. For randomly spaced particles, these models present an effective peculiar disorder that…

We consider a simple model of quantum disorder in two dimensions, characterized by a long-range site-to-site hopping. The system undergoes a metal-insulator transition -- its eigenfunctions change from being extended to being localized. We…
