Random discrete Schrödinger operators from Random Matrix Theory

چکیده
We investigate random, discrete Schrödinger operators which arise naturally in the theory of random matrices, and depend parametrically on Dyson’s Coulomb gas inverse temperature β. They are similar to the class of “critical” random Schrödiner operators with random potentials which diminish as |x|− 12 . We show that as a function of β they undergo a transition from a regime of (power-law) localized eigenstates with a pure point spectrum for β < 2 to a regime of extended states with singular continuous spectrum for β ≥ 2 .

Random Schrödinger operators arising from lattice gauge fields II: determinants
We introduce and study the variational problem to maximize the determinant of a random selfadjoint operators obtained from discrete abelian or nonabelian lattice gauge fields. We prove the existence of minima and give rough estimates of the functional for multi-particle operators.
متن کاملStrategies in localization proofs for one-dimensional random Schrödinger operators
Recent results on localization, both exponential and dynamical, for various models of one-dimensional, continuum, random Schrödinger operators are reviewed. This includes Anderson models with indefinite single site potentials, the Bernoulli– Anderson model, the Poisson model, and the random displacement model. Among the tools which are used to analyse these models are generalized spectral avera...
متن کاملDiscrete Tracy–widom Operators
Abstract Integrable operators arise in random matrix theory, where they describe the asymptotic eigenvalue distribution of large self-adjoint random matrices from the generalized unitary ensembles. This paper considers discrete Tracy–Widom operators, and gives sufficient conditions for a discrete integrable operator to be the square of a Hankel matrix. Examples include the discrete Bessel kerne...
متن کاملAnderson localization for 2D discrete Schrödinger operator with random vector potential
We prove the Anderson localization near the bottom of the spectrum for two dimensional discrete Schrödinger operators with a class of random vector potentials and no scalar potentials. Main lemmas are the Lifshitz tail and the Wegner estimate on the integrated density of states. Then, the Anderson localization, i.e., the pure point spectrum with exponentially decreasing eigenfunctions, is prove...
