Computer simulations of the Ising model exhibit white noise if thermal fluctuations are governed by Boltzmanns factor alone; whereas we find that the same model exhibits 1/f noise if Boltzmanns factor is extended to include local alignment entropy to all orders. We show that this nonlinear correction maintains maximum entropy during equilibrium fluctuations. Indeed, as with the usual resolution of Gibbs paradox that avoids net entropy reduction during reversible processes, the correction yields the statistics of indistinguishable particles. The correction also ensures conservation of energy if an instantaneous contribution from local entropy is included. Thus, a common mechanism for 1/f noise comes from assuming that finite-size fluctuations strictly obey the laws of thermodynamics, even in small parts of a large system. Empirical evidence for the model comes from its ability to match the measured temperature dependence of the spectral-density exponents in several metals, and to show non-Gaussian fluctuations characteristic of nanoscale systems.

We re-examine attempts to study the many-body localization transition using measures that are physically natural on the ergodic/quantum chaotic regime of the phase diagram. Using simple scaling arguments and an analysis of various models for which ri gorous results are available, we find that these measures can be particularly adversely affected by the strong finite-size effects observed in nearly all numerical studies of many-body localization. This severely impacts their utility in probing the transition and the localized phase. In light of this analysis, we argue that a recent study [v{S}untajs et al., arXiv:1905.06345] of the behavior of the Thouless energy and level repulsion in disordered spin chains likely reaches misleading conclusions, in particular as to the absence of MBL as a true phase of matter.

We analyze recent data on the complex inductance of dc SQUIDs that show 1/f inductance noise highly correlated with conventional 1/f flux noise. We argue that these data imply a formation of long range order in fractal spin structures. We show that t hese structures appear naturally in a random system of spins with wide distribution of spin-spin interactions. We perform numerical simulations on the simplest model of this type and show that it exhibits $1/f^{1+zeta}$ magnetization noise with small exponent $zeta$ and reproduces the correlated behavior observed experimentally.
This chapter describes the progress made during the past three decades in the finite size scaling analysis of the critical phenomena of the Anderson transition. The scaling theory of localisation and the Anderson model of localisation are briefly ske tched. The finite size scaling method is described. Recent results for the critical exponents of the different symmetry classes are summarised. The importance of corrections to scaling are emphasised. A comparison with experiment is made, and a direction for future work is suggested.

In Ref.1 (Physical Review B 80, 041304(R) (2009)), we reported an estimate of the critical exponent for the divergence of the localization length at the quantum Hall transition that is significantly larger than those reported in the previous publishe d work of other authors. In this paper, we update our finite size scaling analysis of the Chalker-Coddington model and suggest the origin of the previous underestimate by other authors. We also compare our results with the predictions of Lutken and Ross (Physics Letters B 653, 363 (2007)).
Superconducting wires with broken time-reversal and spin-rotational symmetries can exhibit two distinct topological gapped phases and host bound Majorana states at the phase boundaries. When the wire is tuned to the transition between these two phase s and the gap is closed, Majorana states become delocalized leading to a peculiar critical state of the system. We study transport properties of this critical state as a function of the length $L$ of a disordered multichannel wire. Applying a non-linear supersymmetric sigma model of symmetry class D with two replicas, we identify the average conductance, its variance and the third cumulant in the whole range of $L$ from the Ohmic limit of short wires to the regime of a broad conductance distribution when $L$ exceeds the correlation length of the system. In addition, we calculate the average shot noise power and variance of the topological index for arbitrary $L$. The general approach developed in the paper can also be applied to study combined effects of disorder and topology in wires of other symmetries.
