We present experimental evidence for the different mechanisms driving the fluctuations of the local density of states (LDOS) in disordered photonic systems. We establish a clear link between the microscopic structure of the material and the frequency correlation function of LDOS accessed by a near-field hyperspectral imaging technique. We show, in particular, that short- and long-range frequency correlations of LDOS are controlled by different physical processes (multiple or single scattering processes, respectively) that can be---to some extent---manipulated independently. We also demonstrate that the single scattering contribution to LDOS fluctuations is sensitive to subwavelength features of the material and, in particular, to the correlation length of its dielectric function. Our work paves a way towards a complete control of statistical properties of disordered photonic systems, allowing for designing materials with predefined correlations of LDOS.

Mesoscopic fluctuations of the local density of states encode multifractal correlations in disorderedelectron systems. We study fluctuations of the local density of states in a superconducting state of weakly disordered films. We perform numerical co
mputations in the framework of the disordered attractive Hubbard model on two-dimensional square lattices. Our numerical results are explained by an analytical theory. The numerical data and the theory together form a coherent picture of multifractal correlations of local density of states in weakly disordered superconducting films.
Motivated by recent high-resolution scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) experiments in the quantum Hall regime both on massive two-dimensional electron gas and on graphene, we consider theoretically the disorder averaged nonlocal correlations of the
local density of states (LDoS) for electrons moving in a smooth disordered potential in the presence of a high magnetic field. The intersection of two quantum cyclotron rings around the two different positions of the STM tip, correlated by the local disorder, provides peaks in the spatial dispersion of the LDoS-LDoS correlations when the intertip distance matches the sum of the two quantum Larmor radii. The energy dependence displays also complex behavior: for the local LDoS-LDoS average (i.e., at coinciding tip positions), sharp positive correlations are obtained for tip voltages near Landau level, and weak anticorrelations otherwise.
We investigate the high-frequency behavior of the density of vibrational states in three-dimensional elasticity theory with spatially fluctuating elastic moduli. At frequencies well above the mobility edge, instanton solutions yield an exponentially
decaying density of states. The instanton solutions describe excitations, which become localized due to the disorder-induced fluctuations, which lower the sound velocity in a finite region compared to its average value. The exponentially decaying density of states (known in electronic systems as the Lifshitz tail) is governed by the statistics of a fluctuating-elasticity landscape, capable of trapping the vibrational excitations.
The electronic properties of non-interacting particles moving on a two-dimensional bricklayer lattice are investigated numerically. In particular, the influence of disorder in form of a spatially varying random magnetic flux is studied. In addition,
a strong perpendicular constant magnetic field $B$ is considered. The density of states $rho(E)$ goes to zero for $Eto 0$ as in the ordered system, but with a much steeper slope. This happens for both cases: at the Dirac point for B=0 and at the center of the central Landau band for finite $B$. Close to the Dirac point, the dependence of $rho(E)$ on the system size, on the disorder strength, and on the constant magnetic flux density is analyzed and fitted to an analytical expression proposed previously in connection with the thermal quantum Hall effect. Additional short-range on-site disorder completely replenishes the indentation in the density of states at the Dirac point.
We study two lattice models, the honeycomb lattice (HCL) and a special square lattice (SQL), both reducing to the Dirac equation in the continuum limit. In the presence of disorder (gaussian potential disorder and random vector potential), we investi
gate the behaviour of the density of states (DOS) numerically and analytically. While an upper bound can be derived for the DOS on the SQL at the Dirac point, which is also confirmed by numerical calculations, no such upper limit exists for the HCL in the presence of random vector potential. A careful investigation of the lowest eigenvalues indeed indicate, that the DOS can possibly be divergent at the Dirac point on the HCL. In spite of sharing a common continuum limit, these lattice models exhibit different behaviour.
