Abstract

The transport through a segment of a disordered system is determined by the eigenvalues of a large random matrix. The effectively independent active transmission channels are associated with these eigenvalues which are closest to unity. A decreasing number of those survives when the system's length increases. They determine the conductance and its fluctuations, which are found to be independent, within broad limits, of the size, disorder and nature of the system. This universality is due to the strong correlations in the spectra of large random matrices, providing a new insight on and generalizing the extremely interesting recent results of Altschuler, Lee and Stone.

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.
