The wave function of a non-relativistic particle in a periodic potential admits oscillatory solutions, the Bloch waves. In the presence of a random noise contribution to the potential the wave function is localized. We outline a new proof…
We consider a one-dimensional continuum Anderson model where the potential decays in average like $|x|^{-\alpha}$, $\alpha>0$. We show dynamical localization for $0<\alpha<\frac12$ and provide control on the decay of the eigenfunctions.

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…
We study, both experimentally and numerically, the Anderson localization phenomenon in torsional waves of a disordered elastic rod, which consists of a cylinder with randomly spaced notches. We find that the normal-mode wave amplitudes are…
We study a particular class of families of multi-dimensional lattice Schr\"o\-dinger operators with deterministic (including quasi-periodic) potentials generated by the "hull" given by an orthogonal series over the Haar wavelet basis on the…
We follow the dynamics of nonlinear waves in two-dimensional disordered lattices with tunable nonlinearity. In the absence of nonlinear terms Anderson localization traps the packet in space. For the nonlinear case a destruction of Anderson…

Anderson localization is the ubiquitous phenomenon of inhibition of transport of classical and quantum waves in a disordered medium. In dimension one, it is well known that all states are localized, implying that the distribution of an…
We consider Schr\"odinger operators in $\ell^2(\Z)$ whose potentials are obtained by randomly concatenating words from an underlying set $\mathcal{W}$ according to some probability measure $\nu$ on $\mathcal{W}$. Our assumptions allow us to…
As a supplement of our previous work, we consider the localized region of the random Schroedinger operators on $l^2({\bf Z}^d)$ and study the point process composed of their eigenvalues and corresponding localization centers. For the…
The two main results of the article are concerned with Anderson Localization for one-dimensional lattice Schroedinger operators with quasi-periodic potentials with d frequencies. First, in the case d = 1 or 2, it is proved that the spectrum…
Localization of light is the photon analog of electron localization in disordered lattices for whose discovery Anderson received the Nobel prize in 1977. The question about its existence in open three-dimensional materials has eluded an…
We provide an analytic theory of Anderson localization on a lattice with a weak short-range correlated disordered potential. Contrary to the general belief we demonstrate that even next-neighbor statistical correlations in the potential can…
We present an eigensystem multiscale analysis for proving localization (pure point spectrum with exponentially decaying eigenfunctions, dynamical localization) for the Anderson model in an energy interval. In particular, it yields…
Among the models of disordered conduction and localization, models with $N$ orbitals per site are attractive both for their mathematical tractability and for their physical realization in coupled disordered grains. However Wegner proved…
