We study non-interacting systems with a power-law quasiparticle dispersion $\xi_{\bf k}\propto k^\alpha$ and a random short-range-correlated potential. We show that, unlike the case of lower dimensions, for $d>2\alpha$ there exists a…
The properties of the entanglement entropy (EE) in one-dimensional disordered interacting systems are studied. Anderson localization leaves a clear signature on the average EE, as it saturates on length scale exceeding the localization…

Anderson localisation -- the inhibition of wave propagation in disordered media -- is a surprising interference phenomenon which is particularly intriguing in two-dimensional (2D) systems. While an ideal, non-interacting 2D system of…

The localization length of a low energy tightly bound electron-hole pair (excitons) is calculated by exact diagonalization for small interacting disordered systems. The exciton localization length (which corresponds to the thermal…
We study the ground state of a large bosonic system trapped in a symmetric double-well potential, letting the distance between the two wells increase to infinity with the number of particles. In this context, one should expect an…
A quantum system of particles can exist in a localized phase, exhibiting ergodicity breaking and maintaining forever a local memory of its initial conditions. We generalize this concept to a system of extended objects, such as strings and…
We study Anderson localization in a disordered potential combined with an inhomogeneous trap. We show that the spectrum displays both localized and extended states, which coexist at intermediate energies. In the region of coexistence, we…

The present paper is devoted to the study of a simple model of interacting electrons in a random background. In a large interval $\Lambda$, we consider $n$ one dimensional particles whose evolution is driven by the Luttinger-Sy model, i.e.,…
