Effect of short-range disorder on the excited states of the exciton is studied. Disorder causes an obvious effect of broadening. Microscopically, an exciton, as an entity, is scattered by the large-scale disorder fluctuations. Much less trivial is that short-scale fluctuations, with a period of the order of the Bohr radius, cause a well-defined down-shift of the exciton levels. We demonstrate that this shift exceeds the broadening parametrically and study the dependence of this shift on the orbital number. Difference of the shifts for neighboring levels leads to effective renormalization of the Bohr energy. Most remarkable effect is the disorder-induced splitting of S and P exciton levels. The splitting originates from the fact that disorder lifts the accidental degeneracy of the hydrogen-like levels. The draw an analogy between this splitting and the Lamb shift in quantum electrodynamics.

We analyze a controversial question about the universality class of the three-dimensional Ising model with long-range-correlated disorder. Whereas both analytical and numerical studies performed so far support an extended Harris criterion (A. Weinrib , B. I. Halperin, Phys. Rev. B 27 (1983) 413) and bring about the new universality class, the numerical values of the critical exponents found so far differ essentially. To resolve this discrepancy we perform extensive Monte Carlo simulations of a 3d Ising magnet with non-magnetic impurities arranged as lines with random orientation. We apply Wolff cluster algorithm accompanied by a histogram reweighting technique and make use of the finite-size scaling to extract the values of critical exponents governing the magnetic phase transition. Our estimates for the exponents differ from the results of the two numerical simulations performed so far and are in favour of a non-trivial dependency of the critical exponents on the peculiarities of long-range correlations decay.
We investigate the interplay of Coulomb interactions and short-range-correlated disorder in three dimensional systems where absent disorder the non-interacting band structure hosts a quadratic band crossing. Though the clean Coulomb problem is believ ed to host a non-Fermi liquid phase, disorder and Coulomb interactions have the same scaling dimension in a renormalization group (RG) sense, and thus should be treated on an equal footing. We therefore implement a controlled $epsilon$-expansion and apply it at leading order to derive RG flow equations valid when disorder and interactions are both weak. We find that the non-Fermi liquid fixed point is unstable to disorder, and demonstrate that the problem inevitably flows to strong coupling, outside the regime of applicability of the perturbative RG. An examination of the flow to strong coupling suggests that disorder is asymptotically more important than interactions, so that the low energy behavior of the system can be described by a non-interacting sigma model in the appropriate symmetry class (which depends on whether exact particle-hole symmetry is imposed on the problem). We close with a discussion of general principles unveiled by our analysis that dictate the interplay of disorder and Coulomb interactions in gapless semiconductors, and of connections to many-body localized systems with long-range interactions.

The macroscopic transport properties in a disordered potential, namely diffusion and weak/strong localization, closely depend on the microscopic and statistical properties of the disorder itself. This dependence is rich of counter-intuitive consequen ces. It can be particularly exploited in matter wave experiments, where the disordered potential can be tailored and controlled, and anisotropies are naturally present. In this work, we apply a perturbative microscopic transport theory and the self-consistent theory of Anderson localization to study the transport properties of ultracold atoms in anisotropic 2D and 3D speckle potentials. In particular, we discuss the anisotropy of single-scattering, diffusion and localization. We also calculate a disorder-induced shift of the energy states and propose a method to include it, which amounts to renormalize energies in the standard on-shell approximation. We show that the renormalization of energies strongly affects the prediction for the 3D localization threshold (mobility edge). We illustrate the theoretical findings with examples which are revelant for current matter wave experiments, where the disorder is created with a laser speckle. This paper provides a guideline for future experiments aiming at the precise location of the 3D mobility edge and study of anisotropic diffusion and localization effects in 2D and 3D.

We study quantum transport in anisotropic 3D disorder and show that non rotation invariant correlations can induce rich diffusion and localization properties. For instance, structured finite-range correlations can lead to the inversion of the transpo rt anisotropy. Moreover, working beyond the self-consistent theory of localization, we include the disorder-induced shift of the energy states and show that it strongly affects the mobility edge. Implications to recent experiments are discussed.
We describe non-conventional localization of the midband E=0 state in square and cubic finite bipartite lattices with off-diagonal disorder by solving numerically the linear equations for the corresponding amplitudes. This state is shown to display m ultifractal fluctuations, having many sparse peaks, and by scaling the participation ratio we obtain its disorder-dependent fractal dimension $D_{2}$. A logarithmic average correlation function grows as $g(r) sim eta ln r$ at distance $r$ from the maximum amplitude and is consistent with a typical overall power-law decay $|psi(r)| sim r^{-eta}$ where $eta $ is proportional to the strength of off-diagonal disorder.
