We consider the effect of quenched spatial disorder on systems of interacting, pinned non-Abelian anyons as might arise in disordered Hall samples at filling fractions u=5/2 or u=12/5. In one spatial dimension, such disordered anyon models have previously been shown to exhibit a hierarchy of infinite randomness phases. Here, we address systems in two spatial dimensions and report on the behavior of Ising and Fibonacci anyons under the numerical strong-disorder renormalization group (SDRG). In order to manage the topology-dependent interactions generated during the flow, we introduce a planar approximation to the SDRG treatment. We characterize this planar approximation by studying the flow of disordered hard-core bosons and the transverse field Ising model, where it successfully reproduces the known infinite randomness critical point with exponent psi ~ 0.43. Our main conclusion for disordered anyon models in two spatial dimensions is that systems of Ising anyons as well as systems of Fibonacci anyons do not realize infinite randomness phases, but flow back to weaker disorder under the numerical SDRG treatment.

The zero temperature localization of interacting electrons coupled to a two-dimensional quenched random potential, and constrained to move on a fluctuating one-dimensional string embedded in the disordered plane, is studied using a perturbative renor
malization group approach. In the reference frame of the electrons the impurities are dynamical and their localizing effect is expected to decrease. We consider several models for the string dynamics and find that while the extent of the delocalized regime indeed grows with the degree of string fluctuations, the critical interaction strength, which determines the localization-delocalization transition for infinitesimal disorder,does not change unless the fluctuations are softer than those of a simple elastic string.
Symmetries play a central role in single-particle localization. Recent research focused on many-body localized (MBL) systems, characterized by new kind of integrability, and by the area-law entanglement of eigenstates. We investigate the effect of a
non-Abelian $SU(2)$ symmetry on the dynamical properties of a disordered Heisenberg chain. While $SU(2)$ symmetry is inconsistent with the conventional MBL, a new non-ergodic regime is possible. In this regime, the eigenstates exhibit faster than area-law, but still a strongly sub-thermal scaling of entanglement entropy. Using exact diagonalization, we establish that this non-ergodic regime is indeed realized in the strongly disordered Heisenberg chains. We use real-space renormalization group (RSRG) to construct approximate excited eigenstates, and show their accuracy for systems of size up to $L=26$. As disorder strength is decreased, a crossover to the thermalizing phase occurs. To establish the ultimate fate of the non-ergodic regime in the thermodynamic limit, we develop a novel approach for describing many-body processes that are usually neglected by RSRG, accessing systems of size $L>2000$. We characterize the resonances that arise due to such processes, finding that they involve an ever growing number of spins as the system size is increased. The probability of finding resonances grows with the system size. Even at strong disorder, we can identify a large lengthscale beyond which resonances proliferate. Presumably, this eventually would drive the system to a thermalizing phase. However, the extremely long thermalization time scales indicate that a broad non-ergodic regime will be observable experimentally. Our study demonstrates that symmetries control dynamical properties of disordered, many-body systems. The approach introduced here provides a versatile tool for describing a broad range of disordered many-body systems.
We study the electron-electron interaction contribution to the conductivity of two-dimensional In$_{0.2}$Ga$_{0.8}$As electron systems in the diffusion regime over the wide conductivity range, $sigmasimeq(1-150) G_0$, where $G_0=e^2/(2pi^2hbar)$. We
show that the data are well described within the framework of the one-loop approximation of the renormalization group (RG) theory when the conductivity is relatively high, $sigma gtrsim 15 G_0$. At lower conductivity, the experimental results are found to be in drastic disagreement with the predictions of this theory. The theory predicts much stronger renormalization of the Landaus Fermi liquid amplitude, which controls the interaction in the triplet channel, than that observed experimentally. A further contradiction is that the experimental value of the interaction contribution does not practically depend on the magnetic field, whereas the RG theory forecasts its strong decrease due to decreasing diagonal component of the conductivity tensor in the growing magnetic field.
Many-body localization is a striking mechanism that prevents interacting quantum systems from thermalizing. The absence of thermalization behaviour manifests itself, for example, in a remanence of local particle number configurations, a quantity that
is robust over a parameter range. Local particle numbers are directly accessible in programmable quantum simulators, in systems of cold atoms even in two spatial dimensions. Yet, the classical simulation aimed at building trust in quantum simulations is highly challenging. In this work, we present a comprehensive tensor network simulation of a many-body localized systems in two spatial dimensions using a variant of an iPEPS algorithm. The required translational invariance can be restored by implementing the disorder into an auxiliary spin system, providing an exact disorder average under dynamics. We can quantitatively assess signatures of many-body localization for the infinite system: Our methods are powerful enough to provide crude dynamical estimates for the transition between localized and ergodic phases. Interestingly, in this setting of finitely many disorder values, which we also compare with simulations involving non-interacting fermions and for which we discuss the emergent physics, localization emerges in the interacting regime, for which we provide an intuitive argument, while Anderson localization is absent.
Impurities, defects, and other types of imperfections are ubiquitous in realistic quantum many-body systems and essentially unavoidable in solid state materials. Often, such random disorder is viewed purely negatively as it is believed to prevent int
eresting new quantum states of matter from forming and to smear out sharp features associated with the phase transitions between them. However, disorder is also responsible for a variety of interesting novel phenomena that do not have clean counterparts. These include Anderson localization of single particle wave functions, many-body localization in isolated many-body systems, exotic quantum critical points, and glassy ground state phases. This brief review focuses on two separate but related subtopics in this field. First, we review under what conditions different types of randomness affect the stability of symmetry-broken low-temperature phases in quantum many-body systems and the stability of the corresponding phase transitions. Second, we discuss the fate of quantum phase transitions that are destabilized by disorder as well as the unconventional quantum Griffiths phases that emerge in their vicinity.
