In a recent publication, J. Phys.: Condens. Matt. 14 13777 (2002), Kuzovkov et. al. announced an analytical solution of the two-dimensional Anderson localisation problem via the calculation of a generalised Lyapunov exponent using signal theory. Surprisingly, for certain energies and small disorder strength they observed delocalised states. We study the transmission properties of the same model using well-known transfer matrix methods. Our results disagree with the findings obtained using signal theory. We point to the possible origin of this discrepancy and comment on the general strategy to use a generalised Lyapunov exponent for studying Anderson localisation.

Products of random matrix products of $mathrm{SL}(2,mathbb{R})$, corresponding to transfer matrices for the one-dimensional Schrodinger equation with a random potential $V$, are studied. I consider both the case where the potential has a finite secon d moment $langle V^2rangle<infty$ and the case where its distribution presents a power law tail $p(V)sim|V|^{-1-alpha}$ for $0<alpha<2$. I study the generalized Lyapunov exponent of the random matrix product (i.e. the cumulant generating function of the logarithm of the wave function). In the high energy/weak disorder limit, it is shown to be given by a universal formula controlled by a unique scale (single parameter scaling). For $langle V^2rangle<infty$, one recovers Gaussian fluctuations with the variance equal to the mean value: $gamma_2simeqgamma_1$. For $langle V^2rangle=infty$, one finds $gamma_2simeq(2/alpha),gamma_1$ and non Gaussian large deviations, related to the universal limiting behaviour of the conductance distribution $W(g)sim g^{-1+alpha/2}$ for $gto0$.
We present a full description of the nonergodic properties of wavefunctions on random graphs without boundary in the localized and critical regimes of the Anderson transition. We find that they are characterized by two critical localization lengths: the largest one describes localization along rare branches and diverges with a critical exponent $ u_parallel=1$ at the transition. The second length, which describes localization along typical branches, reaches at the transition a finite universal value (which depends only on the connectivity of the graph), with a singularity controlled by a new critical exponent $ u_perp=1/2$. We show numerically that these two localization lengths control the finite-size scaling properties of key observables: wavefunction moments, correlation functions and spectral statistics. Our results are identical to the theoretical predictions for the typical localization length in the many-body localization transition, with the same critical exponent. This strongly suggests that the two transitions are in the same universality class and that our techniques could be directly applied in this context.
Exponential localization of wavefunctions in lattices, whether in real or synthetic dimensions, is a fundamental wave interference phenomenon. Localization of Bloch-type functions in space-periodic lattice, triggered by spatial disorder, is known as Anderson localization and arrests diffusion of classical particles in disordered potentials. In time-periodic Floquet lattices, exponential localization in a periodically driven quantum system similarly arrests diffusion of its classically chaotic counterpart in the action-angle space. Here we demonstrate that nonlinear optical response allows for clear detection of the disorder-induced phase transition between delocalized and localized states. The optical signature of the transition is the emergence of symmetry-forbidden even-order harmonics: these harmonics are enabled by Anderson-type localization and arise for sufficiently strong disorder even when the overall charge distribution in the field-free system spatially symmetric. The ratio of even to odd harmonic intensities as a function of disorder maps out the phase transition even when the associated changes in the band structure are negligibly small.
We propose the weak localization of magnons in a disordered two-dimensional antiferromagnet. We derive the longitudinal thermal conductivity $kappa_{xx}$ for magnons of a disordered Heisenberg antiferromagnet in the linear-response theory with the li near-spin-wave approximation. We show that the back scattering of magnons is enhanced critically by the particle-particle-type multiple impurity scattering. This back scattering causes a logarithmic suppression of $kappa_{xx}$ with the length scale in two dimensions. We also argue a possible effect of inelastic scattering on the temperature dependence of $kappa_{xx}$. This weak localization is useful to control turning the magnon thermal current on and off.
We report improved numerical estimates of the critical exponent of the Anderson transition in Andersons model of localization in $d=4$ and $d=5$ dimensions. We also report a new Borel-Pade analysis of existing $epsilon$ expansion results that incorpo rates the asymptotic behaviour for $dto infty$ and gives better agreement with available numerical results.
