Lyapounov exponent of the one dimensional Anderson model : weak disorder expansions

Open access
Derrida, B., Gardner, E.·1984·Journal de Physique

Abstract

We describe a method which gives the weak disorder expansion (λ → 0) of the Lyapounov exponent γ(E) of a discretized one-dimensional Schrödinger equation ψn+1 + ψ n-1 + λVnψn = Eψn with a random potential Vn. Near the band edge of the pure system (E → 2), the weak disorder expansion of y(E) is non analytic and we show that γ(E) ∼ λ2/3 when λ → 0. At the band centre (E → 0), we recover the anomaly which has already been explained by Kappus and Wegner. We find another anomaly at the energy E = 2 cos (π/3) and we believe that similar anomalies should occur at all energies E = 2 cos (απ) with α rational.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
