The localization phenomena due to the random potential scattering is widely discussed in the electron and photon systems, where the theoretical approach is the nonlinear $\sigma$ model with the replica method or with the supersymmetry. In…
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…

Localization of wavefunctions is arguably the most familiar effect of disorder in quantum systems. It has been recently argued [[V. Khemani, R. Nandkishore, and S. L. Sondhi, Nature Physics, 11, 560 (2015)] that, contrary to naive…
