Metal–insulator transition in a weakly interacting many-electron system with localized single-particle states

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that in the absence of coupling of the electrons to any external bath dc electrical conductivity exactly vanishes as long as the temperature T does not exceed some finite value Tc.

Anderson Transitions

TL;DR: In this paper, the physics of Anderson transition between localized and metallic phases in disordered systems is reviewed, including both metal-insulator transitions and quantum-Hall-type transitions between phases with localized states.

Transport and Anderson localization in disordered two-dimensional photonic lattices

TL;DR: The experimental observation of Anderson localization in a perturbed periodic potential is reported: the transverse localization of light caused by random fluctuations on a two-dimensional photonic lattice, demonstrating how ballistic transport becomes diffusive in the presence of disorder, and that crossover to Anderson localization occurs at a higher level of disorder.

Boundary Conditions at the Mobility Edge

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the universal behavior of the spacing distribution of nearest energy levels at the metal-insulator Anderson transition is indeed dependent on the boundary conditions and that the spectral rigidity of wave functions in the bulk is not affected by boundary conditions.

Chaos, Interactions, and Nonequilibrium Effects in the Tunneling Resonance Spectra of Ultrasmall Metallic Particles

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explain the observation of clusters in the tunneling resonance spectra of small metallic particles of few nanometer size, identified with one excited single electron state of the metal particle, shifted as a result of the different nonequilibrium occupancy configurations of the other single electron states.

Random Walks through the Ensemble: Linking Spectral Statistics with Wave-Function Correlations in Disordered Metals.

TL;DR: A random walk in the ensemble of impurity configurations is used to generate a Brownian motion model for energy levels in disordered conductors and the resulting Langevin equation relates spectral statistics to eigenfunction correlations.

The Laplacian on a random one-dimensional lattice

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectrum of the Laplacian on a random one-dimensional lattice is studied and the authors find as expected localisation effects throughout the whole range.
