Dimension 2 is expected to be the lower critical dimension for Anderson localization in a time reversal-invariant disordered quantum system. Using an atomic quasiperiodic kicked rotor -- equivalent to a two-dimensional Anderson-like model…
It is classical, following Furstenberg's theorem on positive Lyapunov exponent for products of random SL$(2, \mathbb R)$ matrices, that the one dimensional random Schr\"odinger operator has Anderson localization at arbitrary disorder. This…
We show that a large class of limit-periodic Schr\"odinger operators has purely absolutely continuous spectrum in arbitrary dimensions. This result was previously known only in dimension one. The proof proceeds through the non-perturbative…
The proof of Anderson localization for the 1D Anderson model with arbitrary (e.g. Bernoulli) disorder, originally given by Carmona-Klein-Martinelli in 1987, is based in part on the multi-scale analysis. Later, in the 90s, it was realized…
