We study numerically the localization properties of eigenstates in a one-dimensional random lattice described by a non-Hermitian disordered Hamiltonian, where both the disorder and the non-Hermiticity are inserted simultaneously in the…
The goal of this paper is to highlight several issues which are most crucial for the understanding of the ``metal-insulator transition'' in two dimensions. We discuss some common problems in interpreting experimental results on high…
Electrons on a two-dimensional (2$d$) lattice which is exposed to a strong uniform magnetic field show intriguing physical phenomena. The spectrum of such systems exhibits a complex (multi-)band structure known as Hofstadter's butterfly.…
The properties of semiconductors, insulators, and photonic crystals are defined by their electronic or photonic bands, and the gaps between them. When the material is disordered, Lifshitz tails appear: these are localized states that…
In the absence of magnetic field or spin-orbit coupling the one-parameter scaling theory predicts localization of all states in two-dimensional (2D) disordered systems, for any amount of disorder. However, a 2D metallic phase has been…
We demonstrate the emergence of an entire flat band embedded in dispersive bands at the exceptional point of a PT symmetric photonic lattice. For this to occur, the gain and loss parameter effectively alters the size of the partial flat…
We study one-dimensional disordered fermions that either undergo metal-insulator transitions or topological phase transitions to become trivial Anderson insulators. We focus on using entanglement to elucidate how the spatial, momentum, and…
The interplay of interactions and disorder is studied using the Anderson-Hubbard model within the typical medium dynamical cluster approximation. Treating the interacting, non-local cluster self-energy ($\Sigma_c[{\cal \tilde{G}}](i,j\neq…
Properly modulated flatband lattices have a divergent density of states at the flatband energy. Quasiperiodic modulations are known to host a metal insulator transition already in one space dimension. Their embedding into flatband…
The spectral statistics of complex networks are numerically studied. The features of the Anderson metal-insulator transition are found to be similar for a wide range of different networks. A metal-insulator transition as a function of the…
We investigate, by numerically calculating the charge stiffness, the effects of random diagonal disorder and electron-electron interaction on the nature of the ground state in the 2D Hubbard model through the finite size exact…
We present analytically exact results to show that, certain quasi one-dimensional lattices where the building blocks are arranged in a random fashion, can have an absolutely continuous part in the energy spectrum when special correlations…
The increased ability to engineer two-dimensional (2D) systems, either using materials, photonic lattices, or cold atoms, has led to the search for 2D structures with interesting properties. One such property is the presence of flat bands.…
We study the critical behaviour of Anderson localized modes near intersecting flat and dispersive bands in the quasi-one-dimensional diamond ladder with weak diagonal disorder $W$. The localization length $\xi$ of the flat band states…
We investigate the effect of both strong and weak potential scattering caused by local impurities and extended (line) defects in the array of Luttinger liquid wires. We find that in both cases a finite range inter-wire interaction…
A completely opposite behavior of electronic localization is revealed in a spatially non-uniform disordered material compared to the traditional spatially uniform disordered one. This fact is substantiated by considering an order-disorder…
We report a new attractive critical point occurring in the Anderson localization scaling flow of symplectic models on fractals. The scaling theory of Anderson localization predicts that in disordered symplectic two-dimensional systems weak…
The translational symmetry of solids gives rise to the existence of low-frequency phonons. In ordered systems, some phonons characterized by different wavevectors are degenerate, i.e. they share the same frequency $\omega$; in finite-size…
A new type of delocalization induced by coherent harmonic perturbations in one-dimensional Anderson-localized disordered systems is investigated. With only a few $M$ frequencies a normal diffusion is realized, but the transition to…
Recently, the possibility of high-temperature superconductivity (SC) in flat-band (FB) systems has been the focus of a great deal of activity. This study reveals that unlike conventional intra-band SC for which disorder has a dramatic…
