Disorder plays a crucial role in many systems particularly in solid state physics. However, the disorder in a particular system can usually not be chosen or controlled. We show that the unique control available for ultracold atomic gases…

In an isolated single-particle quantum system a spatial disorder can induce Anderson localization. Being a result of interference, this phenomenon is expected to be fragile in the face of dissipation. Here we show that dissipation can drive…

We prove that a disordered analog of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model exhibits dynamical localization (i.e. the fractional moments condition) at all energies except possibly zero energy, which is singled out by chiral symmetry. Localization…
