We consider invariant matrix models with log-normal (asymptotic) weight. It is known that their eigenvalue distribution is intermediate between Wigner-Dyson and Poissonian, which candidates these models for describing a system intermediate between the extended and localized phase. We show that they have a much richer energy landscape than expected, with their partition functions decomposable in a large number of equilibrium configurations, growing exponentially with the matrix rank. Within each of these saddle points, eigenvalues are uncorrelated and confined by a different potential felt by each eigenvalue. The equilibrium positions induced by the potentials differ in different saddles. Instantons connecting the different equilibrium configurations are responsible for the correlations between the eigenvalues. We argue that these instantons can be linked to the SU(2) components in which the rotational symmetry can be decomposed, paving the way to understand the conjectured critical breaking of U(N) symmetry in these invariant models.

The Anderson localization transition is one of the most well studied examples of a zero temperature quantum phase transition. On the other hand, many open questions remain about the phenomenology of disordered systems driven far out of equilibrium. H ere we study the localization transition in the prototypical three-dimensional, noninteracting Anderson model when the system is driven at its boundaries to induce a current carrying non-equilibrium steady state. Recently we showed that the diffusive phase of this model exhibits extensive mutual information of its non-equilibrium steady-state density matrix. We show that that this extensive scaling persists in the entanglement and at the localization critical point, before crossing over to a short-range (area-law) scaling in the localized phase. We introduce an entanglement witness for fermionic states that we name the mutual coherence, which, for fermionic Gaussian states, is also a lower bound on the mutual information. Through a combination of analytical arguments and numerics, we determine the finite-size scaling of the mutual coherence across the transition. These results further develop the notion of entanglement phase transitions in open systems, with direct implications for driven many-body localized systems, as well as experimental studies of driven-disordered systems.
We analyze the scattering properties of a periodic one-dimensional system at criticality represented by the so-called power-law banded random matrix model at the metal insulator transition. We focus on the scaling of Wigner delay times $tau$ and reso nance widths $Gamma$. We found that the typical values of $tau$ and $Gamma$ (calculated as the geometric mean) scale with the system size $L$ as $tau^{tiny typ}propto L^{D_1}$ and $Gamma^{tiny typ} propto L^{-(2-D_2)}$, where $D_1$ is the information dimension and $D_2$ is the correlation dimension of eigenfunctions of the corresponding closed system.
We study several lattice random walk models with stochastic resetting to previously visited sites which exhibit a phase transition between an anomalous diffusive regime and a localization regime where diffusion is suppressed. The localized phase sett les above a critical resetting rate, or rate of memory use, and the probability density asymptotically adopts in this regime a non-equilibrium steady state similar to that of the well known problem of diffusion with resetting to the origin. The transition occurs because of the presence of a single impurity site where the resetting rate is lower than on other sites, and around which the walker spontaneously localizes. Near criticality, the localization length diverges with a critical exponent that falls in the same class as the self-consistent theory of Anderson localization of waves in random media. The critical dimensions are also the same in both problems. Our study provides analytically tractable examples of localization transitions in path-dependent, reinforced stochastic processes, which can be also useful for understanding spatial learning by living organisms.
The density matrix renormalization group method is applied to obtain the ground state phase diagram of the single impurity Anderson model on the honeycomb lattice at half filling. The calculation of local static quantities shows that the phase diagra m contains two distinct phases, the local moment (LM) phase and the asymmetric strong coupling (ASC) phase. These results are supported by the local spin and charge excitation spectra, which exhibit qualitatively different behavior in these two phases and also reveal the existence of the valence fluctuating point at the phase boundary. For comparison, we also study the low-energy effective pseudogap Anderson model. Although the high-energy excitations are obviously different, we find that the ground state phase diagram and the asymptotically low-energy excitations are in good quantitative agreement with those for the single impurity Anderson model on the honeycomb lattice, thus providing the first quantitative justification for the previous studies based on low-energy approximate approaches. Furthermore, we find that the lowest entanglement level is doubly degenerate for the LM phase, whereas it is singlet for the ASC phase and is accidentally three fold degenerate at the valence fluctuating point. Our results therefore clearly demonstrate that the low-lying entanglement spectrum can be used to determine with high accuracy the phase boundary of the impurity quantum phase transition.

Discontinuous transition is observed in the equilibrium cluster properties of a percolation model with suppressed cluster growth as the growth parameter g0 is tuned to the critical threshold at sufficiently low initial seed concentration rho in contr ast to the previously reported results on non- equilibrium growth models. In the present model, the growth process follows all the criteria of the original percolation model except continuously updated occupation probability of the lattice sites that suppresses the growth of a cluster according to its size. As rho varied from higher values to smaller values, a line of continuous transition points encounters a coexistence region of spanning and non- spanning large clusters. At sufficiently small values of rho (less equal 0.05), the growth parameter g0 exceeds the usual percolation threshold and generates compact spanning clusters leading to discontinuous transitions.
