Numerical studies of localization in disordered systems

Edwards, J T, Thouless, D J·1972·Journal of Physics C: Solid State Physics

Abstract

The results of numerical work on the Anderson model of disordered systems are presented. The sensitivity of the eigenvalues to the choice of periodic or antiperiodic boundary conditions is used as a criterion for localization, and the theory of this criterion is discussed. For the two dimensional square lattice this criterion gives a reasonably sharp result for the onset of localization which is not in conflict with other criteria of localization, and it is found that localization occurs far more easily than Anderson's theory suggests. For the diamond lattice the onset of localization is less sharply defined, and localization occurs less easily than for the square lattice, but more easily than in Anderson's theory.

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.
