We prove exponential and dynamical localization for the Schr\"odinger operator with a nonnegative Poisson random potential at the bottom of the spectrum in any dimension. We also conclude that the eigenvalues in that spectral region of…

The purpose of this paper is to understand in more detail the shape of the eigenvectors of the random Schroedinger operator H = Delta+V. Here Delta is the discrete Laplacian and V is a random potential. It is well known that under certain…

We establish large sets of Anderson localized states for the quasi-periodic nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation on $\mathbb Z^d$, thus extending Anderson localization from the linear (cf. Bourgain [Geom. Funct. Anal., 17(3):682--706, 2007]) to…

Proofs of localization for random Schr\"odinger operators with sufficiently regular distribution of the potential can take advantage of the fractional moment method introduced by Aizenman-Molchanov, or use the classical Wegner estimate as…

For a Hamiltonian ${\hat H}$ containing a position-dependent (disordered) potential, we introduce a sequence of landscape functions $u_n(\vec{r})$ obeying ${\hat H} u_n(\vec{r}) = u_{n-1}(\vec{r})$ with $u_0(\vec{r}) = 1$. For $n \to…

We show that the expansion of an initially confined interacting 1D Bose-Einstein condensate can exhibit Anderson localization in a weak random potential with correlation length \sigma_R. For speckle potentials the Fourier transform of the…

Anderson localization of matter waves was recently observed with cold atoms in a weak 1D disorder realized with laser speckle potential [J. Billy et al., Nature 453, 891 (2008)]. The latter is special in that it does not have spatial…

We present an experimental signature of the Anderson localisation of microcavity polaritons, and provide a systematic study of the dependence on disorder strength. We reveal a controllable degree of localisation, as characterised by the…

We consider a family of self-adjoint operators [H_\omega = - \Delta + \lambda V_\omega, \quad \omega \in \Omega = \bigtimes_{k \in \ZZ^d} \RR,] on the Hilbert space $\ell^2 (\ZZ^d)$ or $L^2 (\RR^d)$. Here $\Delta$ denotes the Laplace…
